1892 Map of Webster

USGS Topo · Published 1938

About this map

Pakachoag Hill and Mt Ararat dominate this nineteenth-century survey of the rugged borderlands between Massachusetts and Connecticut. The landscape is defined by the heavy presence of industry and transport along the French River and Quinebaug River, where established textile and mill villages like Manchaug, Bramanville, and Old Common thrived. The map reveals a dense network of water power and rail, including the Providence and Worcester R.R. and the Boston and Albany R.R. which connected these manufacturing centers to broader markets.
