About this map

The Connecticut River serves as the focal point for this 1932 boundary survey, where the borders of Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Vermont converge. This specific sheet, noted as an advance sheet subject to correction, highlights a period of significant infrastructure development along the state lines. The Central Vermont Ry and the Boston and Maine RR (Cheshire Branch) dominate the transport corridors, connecting settlements like South Vernon and East Northfield Sta.

Beyond the river valley, the topography rises sharply into the hills of the Warwick and Northfield areas. Notable elevations such as Hog Back Mtn, Wheeler Mtn, and Newton Hill are meticulously charted. The map also records early recreational and utility features, including Camp Takodah and a prominent Transmission Line, reflecting the early 20th-century transition of the landscape from purely agricultural and industrial use toward modern utility and leisure.
