2024 Map of Brookton

About this map

Baskahegan Lake dominates the southern landscape of this Washington County survey, its complex shoreline defined by numerous points and coves like Abraquidassat Point and Knownothing Cove. The interior Maine topography is characterized by extensive wetlands, including Webber Bog and Anvil Meadow, which feed into the meandering Baskahegan Stream. The settlement pattern centers on the village of Brookton and the smaller community of Eaton to the north, both situated along the historic corridor of Calais Rd. Genealogists will find the Brookton Cem and Eaton Cem clearly marked near these old town sites. Further north, the elevation rises toward Flagstaff Mtn, while the waters of Witcher Brook and Crooked Brook Flowage suggest the intricate drainage systems that historically supported the region's timber and water-powered industries. Unique place names like Hell Rapids and Dung Fork Points add local character to this detailed view of the rural borderlands.
