About this map

The Merrimack River carves a dramatic oxbow through this landscape, defining the character of Tyngsboro and the surrounding borderlands of Middlesex County during the late 1930s. The river is a focal point for recreation and industry, featuring the Vesper Country Club on Tyngs Island and the prominent Boston and Maine Railroad tracking its western bank. The settlement pattern is characterized by numerous family-named crossroads such as Frederick Corner, Swan Corner, and Whidden Corner, which suggest a deeply rooted local genealogy.
