Heald and Bradley Ponds, 2013 and 1858 |
~2013 |
From 1858 Map of Oxford County I superimposed our trail on this map by matching roads on the two maps. It looks like the cellar hole might be the G. McAllister homestead. I wonder if the change in the shapes of Bradley and Heald Ponds is the result of beavers or man-made dams?? It also looks like there might be another cellar hole (or maybe house?) on or near the preserve (A. Andrews on below). Should check it out! |
