2018 Map of Pepperell

About this map

The Nashua River winds through this borderland where New Hampshire meets Massachusetts, connecting the mill traditions of Pepperell and East Pepperell with the northern outskirts of Nashua. The landscape is a mosaic of early settlements and family landmarks, from the clusters at Babbatasset Village and Hovey Corner to the riverside industrial legacy suggested by Paper Mill Village. High ground is defined by named peaks such as Shepley Hill and The Four Hills, while the valley floors are marked by the intricate hydrology of Unkety Brook, Reedy Meadow Brook, and the sweeping curve of The Ox Bow. For genealogists, the map is particularly detailed, locating numerous burial grounds including Woodlawn Cem, Blood Cem, and the Saint Louis De Gonzagues Cem. This modern survey documents the persistent boundary between Hillsborough Co and Middlesex Co, showing how contemporary residential growth and the Pepperell Airport have integrated into the region's older agricultural and riparian framework.
