About this map

Naugatuck and the surrounding valley communities of Union City, Beacon Falls, and Seymour are defined by their position along the Naugatuck River in this 2021 study. The landscape is characterized by a series of prominent elevations, including High Rock, Rock Rimmon, and Hunters Mtn, which frame the industrial and residential corridors of the valley. This modern survey illustrates the persistent importance of the river corridor, now featuring the Seymour-Naugatuck River Greenway Trl alongside the long-established Salem Bridge rail crossing.

Genealogists and local historians can find a high density of burial grounds and religious sites, such as Saint Francis Cem, Trinity Cem, and Saint Augustine Cem. The map also captures the complex water management system of the region, noting numerous reservoirs such as Mulberry Reservoir, Candee Reservoir, and the series of Seymour Reservoirs that have historically supported the valley's development from Millville down to Paynes Corners.
