About this map

The Naugatuck River valley serves as the central corridor for this 2015 survey, anchoring a region defined by industrial history and rugged hills. The Naugatuck Railroad parallels the water, passing through the primary settlements of Thomaston and Reynolds Bridge. To the east, the landscape transitions into the uplands of Plymouth and Terryville, where the Terryville Tunnel represents a significant piece of local infrastructure.

Genealogists will find a high density of burial sites including Hillside Cem, Saint Thomas Cem, and the Allentown Cem on the New Haven County border. The area is also notable for its complex water management, shown through the Plymouth Reservoir, Northfield Brook Lake, and Hancock Brook Lake. Aviation history is represented by the Waterbury Airport in the south, while the northern reaches at Campville show the convergence of several major brooks.
