1943 Map of Sandwich

USGS Topo · Published 1943

About this map

Sandwich and West Barnstable occupy a complex coastal landscape shaped by tidal estuaries and glacial kettle ponds during the early 1940s. The shoreline is defined by the Great Marshes and the newly established Cape Cod Canal, with the New York New Haven and Hartford RR serving as the primary transit artery through the town centers. Local history is deeply rooted in the interior uplands, where Shawme State Forest surrounds several significant family and community landmarks, including the Old Quaker Meetinghouse and Freeman Cem.
