1958 Map of South Sandisfield

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Thousand Acre Swamp and Wolf Swamp dominate the central landscape of this 1958 survey, illustrating the complex hydrology of the Berkshire-Litchfield borderlands. The map traces the winding boundary between Massachusetts and Connecticut, where early settlements like Montville and Southfield were established along high-elevation roads. Local history is preserved through the locations of the North Norfolk Chapel and several family-named burial grounds, including Hulbert Cem and Huxley Cem. To the south, the terrain descends toward West Norfolk and the headwaters of the Whiting River, while the recreation-focused lands of Sandisfield State Forest and Haystack Mountain State Park highlight a mid-century shift toward conservation. Notable water bodies such as East Indies Pond, York Lake, and the expansive Doolittle Lake provide clear landmarks for researchers tracing the historical development of this interstate corridor.
