1953 Map of Uxbridge

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

Industrial and rural landscapes converge along the Mumford River and Blackstone River in the mid-century. This 1953 revision shows the dense textile-mill era footprints of Whitinsville and Uxbridge, where workers lived in neighborhoods like New Village. The transportation network is dominated by the New York New Haven and Hartford RR, with key stops at East Douglas Sta and Linwood. Away from the river valleys, the terrain rises into the Sutton State Forest and the heights of Bald Hill. Numerous family and community landmarks are preserved here, including the Aldrich Cem, Lapham Cem, and the historic Halfway House located along the old Hartford Ave route. The map also records the remnants of the Blackstone Canal and various local educational sites such as the Aldrich Sch and Tasseltop Sch, reflecting the established social fabric of the Blackstone Valley during this period of New England history.
