About this map

The Ware River, Swift River, and Quaboag River converge at the industrial heart of Three Rivers, where the Central Vermont Railroad and Boston and Maine Railroad once dictated the local economy. This 1969 field check captures a transitional period for Palmer, showing the modern Mass Turnpike cutting through the landscape alongside established settlements like Bondsville and Thorndike. Local history and genealogy researchers will find numerous legacy landmarks, including the SS Peter and Paul Cem, Palmer Center Cem, and Baptist Hill Ch.
