2018 Map of Bath

About this map

Bath occupies the center of this coastal Maine survey, situated where the Kennebec River narrows at The Chops Passage before reaching Merrymeeting Bay. The landscape is defined by its complex maritime geography, including the Androscoggin River confluence and the tidal reaches of Hockomock Bay. On the eastern bank, the town of Woolwich and the hamlet of Days Ferry overlook the river, while the Nequasset area is marked by its historic Pumping Station and Nequasset Lake. Genealogists will find a significant concentration of burial grounds throughout the area, from the large Oak Grove Cem and Maple Grove Cem in the city proper to smaller sites like Hodgkins Cem and Riverside Cem along the riverbanks. The map also traces the New Meadows River and numerous tidal creeks, documenting the proximity of inland settlements like North Meadows to the Atlantic coast.
