1932 Map of Brooks

About this map

Mount Harris rises as a central landmark in this 1930s landscape of rural Waldo County, where a network of schools and small settlements define the social fabric of the era. The topography is marked by a series of drumlin-like hills such as Plummer Hill and Goodwin Hill, interspersed with water bodies like Passagassawakeag Pond and Toddy Pond. The transport network of the early thirties is visible through Route 139 and the presence of Knox Sta, reflecting the importance of both rail and roadway to these communities. Numerous local schools, including Maple Grove Sch and Washington Sch, are scattered throughout the townships of Jackson, Dixmont, and Brooks, illustrating a period of decentralized education and agriculture. Small-scale industrial sites like Kickerson Mills and the Twombly Mine provide clues to the local economy and land use during this time.
