About this map

Rehoboth, Dighton, Swansea, and Somerset appear here during the early 1940s, revealing a landscape defined by an intricate network of wetlands and small watercourses. The Taunton River serves as the eastern boundary, while the interior is dominated by vast tracts like Manwhague Swamp and Squannakonk Swamp. This era captures a mix of rural crossroads and growing riverfront industry, seen in the infrastructure of the New York New Haven and Hartford railroad and the Somerset Pumping Sta near Broad Cove.
