Description
This is a 2 map set of the entire township of Barkhamsted, CT from 1874. This map set was recently reproduced on fine natural color parchment. It's 11"x 17" and suitable to fit a standard size frame. Contained on the maps are finely detailed locations of the homeowners of the towns or villages of Barkhamsted, Riverton, Pleasant Valley and Hampsted. There is also an additional inset map of Riverton as shown.The pictures provided show only portions of the actual maps, please feel free to contact me with any questions!
This is all very interesting because it shows what the area looked like before the Barkhamsted Reservoir was made. Due to the limited size of my scanner bed, portions of the maps may not be shown. Please check out the attached pictures for greater detail. There is also a small inset map of the downtown or business section of Pleasant Valley.
Some of the surnames which are clearly printed are Perkins, Carter, London, Root, Phelps, Case, Doud, Andrews, Doolittle and so many more that it's impossible to list! Also indicated on the map are schools, named streets, railroads and rivers/streams.
It would indeed make quite a conversation piece as well as an excellent gift for that person who has everything! What a great genealogical treasure to be able to locate the homes of one or more of your ancestors!
Multiple purchases can be combined for one shipping charge!
These maps make wonderful gifts and really are quite the conversation piece.
