About this map

The coastal landscapes of Stonington and Westerly are captured here in the late 19th century, revealing a region defined by its maritime economy and early industrial growth. The New York Providence and Boston Railroad provides a critical land corridor, threading through shoreline settlements like Mystic Bridge and Stonington, while the Pawcatuck River serves as a natural boundary between Connecticut and Rhode Island. Local industry is evidenced by the Silax Mine near Lantern Hill, a prominent landmark overlooking the inland terrain.
