About this map

Brownville Junction and the village of Brownville occupy the heart of this Piscataquis County landscape, where the West Branch Pleasant River and East Branch Pleasant River converge. The settlement pattern follows the waterways and historical road corridors like Church St and the Brownville-Sebec Rd. Local infrastructure is anchored by the Brownville Junction Post Office and the Webber Jones Airport, while the industrial history of the river is marked by the Pleasant River Dam.

Tracing the southern reaches reveals the Sebec River flowing out of Sebec Lake at the Sebec Dam, near the quiet settlement of Sebec. The terrain is defined by numerous named elevations, from Gerrish Hill in the northeast to Mount Misery and Buck Hill further south. Genealogists will find several burial grounds noted, including the Pine Tree Cemetery near the river forks and the Sebec Village Cemetery overlooking the lake.
