1964 Map of Williamsburg

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

Williamsburg and the surrounding Hill Towns of Hampshire and Franklin Counties appear here as they were mid-century, defined by a landscape of steep ridges and narrow river valleys. The Mill River winds through the southern settlements of Haydenville, Searsville, and Williamsburg, where the Williamsburg Station sits along the Boston and Maine Railroad line. This area reflects a legacy of small-scale water-powered industry, evidenced by features like the Brass Millpond and the Northampton Reservoir. To the north and east, the terrain rises sharply into the Conway State Forest and toward the village of Whately. Researchers will find numerous family-named landmarks such as O'Neil Hill and Meekin Hill, alongside local institutions like the Whately Center Sch and the Cricket Hill Cem, which anchor the historical footprint of these rural Massachusetts communities.
