  • DESCRIPTION: Seymour, East River & Madison by D. H. Hurd. This detailed 1893 map showcases the towns of Seymour, East River, and Madison as they stood in the late 19th century, offering a glimpse into their roads, property boundaries, and landowners. Seymour, once a hub for manufacturing along the Naugatuck River, was thriving with mills and factories, while Madison and East River retained their coastal charm, known for fishing and shipbuilding. As Connecticut towns balanced industry with small-town life, maps like this played a vital role in urban planning, commerce, and preserving local history before modernization took hold.
