1930 Map of Allagash

About this map

The confluence of the St John River and the Allagash River serves as the focal point for this wilderness survey, highlighting the timber-driven landscape of northern Maine in the early twentieth century. Small river-based settlements like Dickey and Gardner appear as vital outposts in an era when waterways were primary transport corridors. The map documents the educational infrastructure of these remote townships through the Kelly Sch, Lindberg Sch, and the descriptively named Log Cabin Sch, reflecting a sparse but settled frontier population.
