1900 Map of Whitefield

USGS Topo · Published 1916

About this map

The Connecticut River serves as the dividing line between New Hampshire and Vermont in this late 19th-century landscape, where the rugged terrain of Coos and Grafton counties met the industrial expansion of the railroad. The Maine Central R.R. and Boston and Maine R.R. created a complex web of transport, converging at significant hubs like Whitefield Junction and Quebec Junction. This network supported a flourishing seasonal economy, evidenced by the presence of large Victorian-era retreats like the Mount View House and Overlook House. Between the growing village of Whitefield and the resort-heavy area of Bethlehem, the map documents a transition from traditional river-valley settlements to a mountain tourism destination. Smaller locales like South Lunenburg and Dalton Station appear alongside numerous family-named peaks such as Agassiz Mt. and Bray Hill, providing a granular view of the region's topography before modern development.
