2021 Map of Brooks West

About this map

East Thorndike and Knox Center anchor this landscape in Waldo County, where the terrain is defined by a dense concentration of small family and community cemeteries. The geography reflects a legacy of dispersed rural settlement, with names like Jackson Corner Cem, Cole Cem, and Knox Station Cem dotting the hillsides and crossroads. Water drainage patterns are complex, featuring the prominent Stantial Bog and its outflow, Stantial Brook, alongside several other waterways such as Wing Brook and Great Farm Brook. Elevations rise toward the southeast near Skyscraper Hill and Hedgehog Hill, while the village of Brooks sits along Marsh Stream. This detailed 2021 update from the U.S. Geological Survey preserves the locations of these historical burial grounds and early township centers amidst the modern road network.
