1956 Map of Norfolk

USGS Topo · Published 1958

About this map

Norfolk sits at the northern edge of this Litchfield County landscape, where the Blackberry River cuts through the high ground of Canaan Mtn. The 1956 topography reveals a region defined by its diverse water bodies and conserved lands, including the recreation grounds of Haystack Mtn State Park and Dennis Hill State Park. Significant local history is preserved in the location of rural hamlets like South Norfolk and Grantville, alongside numerous family and community burial grounds such as Hall Meadow Cem and Danbury Quarter Cem. The southern reach of the map shows the transition toward Torrington, marked by the Reuben Hart Reservoir and the Naugatuck River headwaters. Notable for genealogists, the Winchester Center PO and small intersections like Kelly Corner provide specific anchors for mid-century settlement patterns in the Connecticut highlands.
