About this map

Hornbine Ch and a network of early family cemeteries define the rural character of this Bristol County landscape, where the towns of Rehoboth, Dighton, Swansea, and Somerset converge. The terrain is characterized by a significant watery footprint, featuring the extensive Manwhague Swamp and Maple Swamp, alongside the Warren Upper Reservoir and Warren Reservoir. These wetlands dictated early settlement patterns, forcing development onto higher ground such as Great Meadow Hill and Mount Terrydiddle.
