About this map

Industrial and agrarian life in eastern Connecticut converges along the Quinebaug River and Moosup River during the early 1940s. The village of Plainfield serves as a central hub, where the New York New Haven and Hartford railroad tracks intersect the local landscape, connecting smaller settlements like Central Village, Moosup, and Wauregan. This era shows a community defined by its water power and rail access, evidenced by industrial sites like Evergreen Gem and Union Gem located near the riverbanks.
