1935 Map of Woodsville

About this map

The Connecticut River serves as the primary artery for this region in the mid-1930s, winding past the notable bend known as The Oxbow and separating the rural townships of Vermont and New Hampshire. The industrial character of the era is evident in the numerous granite works, including the Gibson Quarry and Bonazzi Quarry, which supported local economies alongside timber operations like Ricker Mills. Significant rail infrastructure is represented by the Boston and Maine Railroad and the Canadian Pacific Railroad, which converge near the village of Woodsville.
