About this map

Fifteenmile Stream meanders through this portion of Kennebec County, defining a landscape of small settlements and agricultural crossings. The town of Albion sits at the heart of the area, supported by the hydraulic infrastructure of the Mill Stream Dam and the various rural roads that connect it to South Albion and East Benton. The terrain is marked by distinctive elevations such as Foss Hill and Shore Hill, while the waterway network is anchored by the expanse of Lovejoy Pond to the south.

Local genealogy and history are preserved through numerous family and community burial grounds, including the Abbott Cemetery, Fowler Cemetery, and Quaker Hill Cemetery. Historic river crossings remain central to the geography, with the Gridiron Bridge spanning the stream in the north and the Puddledock Bridge providing access further south. The map reflects a classic Maine interior character where life is oriented around the brooks, streams, and ponds that carved the valley.
