About this map

The Androscoggin River valley serves as the primary artery for settlement and transport in this Oxford County landscape, where the town of Bethel and its surrounding villages like West Bethel, North Bethel, and Mayville are situated. This 1953 civil edition, revised from 1940 military aerial photography, documents a network of rural schoolhouses and neighborhood landmarks that define early mid-century Maine life. Educational centers such as Mason School, Flat School, and Sunday River Sch are clearly marked alongside civil sites like the Town House.
