About this map

The Miller River serves as the industrial and topographic spine of this region, carving a path through the hills that the Fitchburg Railroad follows to connect manufacturing hubs like Athol and Winchendon. This mid-1930s landscape is defined by the proximity of the New Hampshire and Massachusetts border, where many small settlements such as Hydeville and Waterville grew around water-powered mill sites. The prevalence of named hills like Tully Mtn and Benjamin Hill among numerous small ponds suggests a territory where agriculture and timber remained vital alongside the burgeoning rail-side industries.
