1944 Map of Norton

About this map

Wheaton College serves as a central anchor for this mid-century landscape, where the academic grounds meet the expanding industrial and institutional corridors of Bristol County. During the early 1940s, the region was defined by a mix of established manufacturing, seen at the Copper Works near Barrowsville, and significant wartime military presence at Camp Miles Standish on the eastern edge. The map captures a detailed hydrographic network including the Norton Reservoir and the winding Canoe River, which historically powered the local mills.
