1944 Map of Blue Hill

USGS Topo · Published 1944

About this map

The coastal landscapes of Hancock County are captured in detail during the early 1940s, revealing the complex maritime geography of the Blue Hill Peninsula. The map highlights the essential connection of the Deer Isle- Sedgwick Bridge spanning the Eggemoggin Reach, linking the mainland to the islands. Settlements such as Blue Hill, Brooklin, and Brooksville are shown with their local infrastructure, including the Grays Corner Sch and the Fair Grounds near the village of Blue Hill. The interior terrain is defined by low-lying wetlands like the Wight Heath Peat Bog and elevations such as Wallamatogus Mt. From the tidal dynamics at Blue Hill Falls to the quiet waters of Salt Pond, the map documents a region defined by its relationship with the Atlantic, showing numerous coves, points, and family-named landmarks that anchor the local heritage of this Maine coastline.
