1965 Map of Pepperell

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

The Nashua River meanders south through this landscape, defining the character of the borderlands between New Hampshire and Massachusetts. The 1965 aerial survey, updated in the late 1970s, captures a transition in the valley, where the Boston and Maine Railroad still follows the riverbanks past industrial clusters like East Pepperell. Inland, the terrain is shaped by numerous glacial features, from the low-lying Reedy Meadow and Hauk Swamp to prominent rises like Proctor Hill and Drake Hill. Local genealogy is well-represented through family-named locations such as Hovey Corner and several established cemeteries including St Louis de Gonzagues Cem and Woodlawn Cem. Traces of older transit persist in the old railroad grade near North Pepperell, marking the shifting priorities of the region's transport network.
