Stop by the Bacon Free Library to view a selection of Natick Historical Society’s maps of Natick, on display May 21st to June 30th.  These fascinating reproductions show the streets, properties, and bodies of water of Natick, while some also display sketches of trees & buildings, and in one case, the handwritten names of property owners.  Among the historic gems are:

• an 1830 land survey of Bigelow Mills
• an 1887 map of Cochituate
• an 1887 rendering of South Natick including sketches of noteworthy buildings
• a map of Felchville, circa 1908
• an illustrated map reproduced in 1976 by Natick Five Cents Savings Bank for the Town of Natick Bicentennial Committee

These maps are available for viewing and for sale year round in the Natick History Museum.  For more information, visit www.natickhistoricalsociety.org
