1975 Map of Bradford

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Bradford and its surrounding hamlets are captured in this orthophotograph, providing a rare aerial perspective of the Penobscot County landscape in the mid-1970s. The image reveals a mosaic of cleared agricultural land and dense woodland typical of rural Maine, with the primary settlement at Bradford joined by smaller clusters at Bradford Center and North Bradford. The southern portion of the quadrangle is dominated by the waters of Little Pushaw Pond, which feeds into the winding Pushaw Stream. This transitional era shows the persistence of the traditional road-and-farm network before later twentieth-century development, as local waterways like Dead Stream and West Branch define the natural boundaries of the timber and tilled plots. Genealogists and local historians can use this visual record to locate family homesteads and farmstead footprints near Hudson and along the various brooks that drain this part of the interior.
