1996 Map of Slocum

USGS Topo · Published 1999

About this map

The Queen River and its numerous tributaries, including Pardon Joslin Brook and Fisherville Brook, define the rural character of this southern Rhode Island landscape. The village of Usquepaug sits at the southwestern edge, while Slocum serves as a key rail point along the north-south Railroad corridor. The geography is heavily influenced by glacial remnants, evidenced by the vast Dead Swamp and Bear Swamp, and prominent elevations like Hopkins Hill and Shrub Hill. Local history is anchored by community landmarks such as Liberty Ch, the Baptist Plantation Ch, and the South County Museum. The presence of the State Fish Hatchery and several mill ponds, including Yawgoo Mill Pond, points to the long-standing integration of water resources into the local economy and conservation efforts.
