Hope this helps.

There are a lot of old roads and bridges and stone walls - they flooded a section of Salem - but not an actual town. Speaking of the Queabbin - We lived up in Petersham, MA (on the shores of the Quabbin. There are ghost roads you can hike down and find remnants of the towns mentioned above. Old roads, Main Street in Dana is still identifiable - with old cellar holes, etc...lining the now weed covered roadway. If you want to see something extraordinary - find your way to the south of the Quabbin along route 9 just outside of WARE, MA - near the entrance to the Windsor Dam - across the road is the Quabbin Cemetary - thats right - they exhumed EVERY grave from the valley and many were moved to this cemetary - graves and headstones tell the tale!
