USGS Topo · Published 1944About this map
Quannapowitt Lake and the Ipswich River basin define the landscape of this mid-century survey, where the expanding residential grids of Reading and Wakefield meet the wetlands and military training grounds of Essex and Middlesex Counties. The map reveals a transition from the village center of North Reading to specialized land uses, including the Military Police Camp and the expansive Rifle Range at Camp Curtis Guild. Numerous cemeteries like Puritan Lawn Cemetery and the Flint Burying Ground are recorded, providing vital locations for genealogists.
