1969 Map of Ware

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

The Ware River corridor serves as the primary industrial and transport artery through this central Massachusetts landscape, connecting the mill settlements of Gilbertville and Wheelwright. These villages, along with Furnace, are situated at points where the river's descent provided power, later reinforced by the dual rail lines of the Boston and Maine and Penn Central railroads. The map reveals a transition from industrial valley floors to higher agricultural and institutional grounds, notably at Eagle Hill Sch and the Pioneer Valley Academy in New Braintree.
