1967 Map of North Brookfield

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

North Brookfield serves as the primary municipal hub in this late 1960s topographic survey of Worcester County, where the transition from industrial town centers to dense woodlands is clearly visible. The landscape is defined by its many glacial water bodies, including the centrally located Brooks Pond and Dean Pond, which sit adjacent to the sprawling Oakham State Forest. For genealogists and local historians, the map is remarkably detailed regarding burial grounds, marking sites like Walnut Grove Cem and the St Josephs Cem near the town center, as well as the secluded Southwest Cem. Religious and recreational landmarks are prominent, notably the St Josephs Abbey in Spencer and Camp Putnam in Oakham. Transportation is dominated by a network of historic routes like the Old Turnpike Road and the Penn Central rail line running through the northern reaches near the Ware River.
