DescriptionMap of part of what is now Wethersfield, Connecticut, as it appeared in the 17th century. A loop of the Connecticut River (or Great River) appears to the north of the settlement, on the left edge of the map. Reading the map so that it is oriented north-south, the village extends from the Great River to the north, the Great Meadow to the east, the Great Plain to the south, and Beaver Brook to the west. In the river is Cole-Standish Island. Streets are labeled and residences and public buildings are marked with squares and the names of their owners or occupants.
