2021 Map of Brownfield

About this map

Brownfield and West Brownfield anchor this portion of Oxford County, Maine, sitting at the junction of river valleys and the Burnt Meadow Mountains. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the Saco River and its numerous tributaries, including the Little Saco River and Shepards River. For local historians and genealogists, the map provides an exceptional density of family-named burial grounds, such as Marston Cem, Wentworth - Brown Cem, and Walker - Rounds Cem. These sites, along with settlements like New Boston and Porterfield, offer a clear picture of the historical distribution of community life across the region. Aviation infrastructure is represented by the Eastern Slopes Regional Airport in the north, while the southern terrain rises steeply toward peaks like Frost Mtn and Stone Mtn. The detailed hydrography traces many brooks, including Linscott Brook and Quint Brook, which drain the varied topography of this Maine-New Hampshire borderland.
