2024 Map of Albion

About this map

Lovejoy Pond serves as a central geographic anchor for this Kennebec County landscape, where the town of Albion is situated at the intersection of several historic transit routes. The settlement pattern is largely defined by the drainage of Fifteenmile Stream and its tributaries like Mill Stream and Fowler Brook. This modern topographic survey illustrates the enduring rural character of the region, marked by numerous family and community burial grounds including Quaker Hill Cem, Maple Grove Cem, and Abbott Cem. Low-lying wetland areas such as Fowler Bog and Kanokolus Bog contrast with prominent local elevations like Shore Hill and Foss Hill. The map also captures the spread of smaller hamlets such as South Albion and East Benton, providing a contemporary view of the road networks and property distributions that have evolved over decades of Maine's agricultural history.
