1963 Map of Big Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

Indian Township and the Grand Lake Stream Plantation define this landscape of interconnected waterways in eastern Maine. The village of Princeton sits at the northern end of a vast lake system, serving as a hub between Lewy Lake and Long Lake. The map reveals a community deeply tied to its geography, with the Town Hall and Princeton Airport situated near the town center. Further south, the settlement of Crawford remains clustered near the shores of Crawford Lake, surrounded by prominent heights like Pocomoonshine Mountain and Harmon Mtn. The region's reliance on its natural resources is visible in the network of flowages and streams, such as the Huntley Brook Flowage and East Machias River, which once facilitated local timber and water-powered industries. Genealogists can find several burial grounds, including Lakeview Cem and Old Crawford Cem, marking the early family foundations of these lakeside townships.
