1944 Map of Norton

USGS Topo · Published 1944

About this map

The town of Norton and its surrounding Bristol County landscape appear in this mid-war survey, defined by a complex network of waterways and early industrial sites. The Rumford River and Wading River flow through the heart of the area, feeding into the Norton Reservoir and powering local enterprise at the Copper Works and Barrowsville Pond. The presence of Wheaton College anchors the village center, while the eastern edge of the map is dominated by the sprawling wartime infrastructure of Camp Miles Standish.
