1946 Map of Westhampton

USGS Topo · Published 1946

About this map

The Knightville Reservoir dominates the western landscape of this Hampshire County survey, illustrating the mid-century engineering of the Westfield River basin. In the years following World War II, the area maintained its traditional rural character, defined by scattered hamlets like Westhampton and Norwich. Local industry is represented by the Bisbee Mill near the northern boundary, while the surrounding hills are dotted with family-named landmarks such as Bascam Hill and Horse Hill. Genealogists will find significant value in the documentation of local burial grounds, including Torrey Cem, Bofat Cem, and Damon Cem. The complex drainage patterns of Dead Branch and the Manhan River reveal a landscape deeply tied to its water sources, from the isolated Norwich Pond to the developed shores of Pine Island Lake.
