2018 Map of Rowe

About this map

The Deerfield River carves a deep path through this borderland where Massachusetts meets Vermont, defining a landscape of steep ridges and industrial history. The presence of the Hoosac Tunnel and its nearby Hoosac Tunnel Station marks a significant feat of nineteenth-century engineering that remains central to the region's character. To the north, Monroe Bridge sits along the river's edge, while the town of Rowe is situated near Pelham Lake and Camp Rowe. The terrain is punctuated by high points like Todd Mtn and Adams Mtn, with the Green Mountain National Forest extending across the northern boundary. Genealogists will find several resting places scattered across the hills, including the Nelson Family Cem near Florida Bridge and the Hawks Cem further south near Charlemont. The hydrography is equally complex, featuring the Upper Reservoir Bear Swamp and numerous mountain streams like Pelham Brook.
