About this map

The Nashua River serves as the central artery for this region, winding through a landscape defined by its transition from agricultural heritage to modern conservation. Along its banks, the Nashua River Rail Trl follows an old corridor through East Pepperell and Pepperell, while smaller settlements like Babbatasset Village and Paper Mill Village speak to the area's industrial past. Numerous family-named hills and cemeteries are scattered throughout, including the Rideout Family Cem and Blood Cem, offering clear points of reference for genealogical research.

Conservation efforts are evident in the complex network of trails such as the Salamander Trl and Tanglewood Dr, which weave through the wetlands of Reedy Meadow and Hauk Swamp. To the north, the terrain rises toward Flints Hill and the Nissitissit Hills, while the western edge is marked by the valley of the Nissitissit River. The map also captures specialized local features like the Pepperell Airport and several historic burial grounds, including the Saint Louis De Gonzagues Cem near the Nashua border.
