About this map

The Squannacook River carves a central path through this mid-century landscape, anchoring the settlements of Townsend, West Townsend, and Townsend Harbor during the later years of World War II. The Boston and Maine RR parallels the river, marking the transportation corridor that sustained the local economy of mills and small-scale industry. The map captures a high density of civic and family history sites, including Riverside Cem, Hillside Cem, and Center Cem, alongside the Highland School.
