Description

View of Palmer, Hampden County, M.A., 1879 / drawn & published by O. H. Bailey & Co.

This bird’s-eye view print of Palmer, Massachusetts was drawn and published by O. H. Bailey & Co. in 1879. Palmer was settled in the 1700s. Early farmers of the region grew potatoes, corn, wheat, rye, oats, barley and flax for exportation to Boston.

Textile mills began to emerge in the 1800's along the rivers. Railroads maintained a major junction at Palmer during that era which enabled manufacturers and farmers to ship goods more easily.

The Palmer Journal began its weekly news publication in 1850. In 1879, a new public library was dedicated in Palmer.

The illustration includes labeled roads, buildings, waterways and railroad routes. There are detailed illustrations of the following:

• French’s Block.
• Nassowanno House.
