1913 Map of Buckfield

USGS Topo · Published 1947

About this map

The Androscoggin River defines the upper northeast corner of this landscape, where the Maine Central RR Rangeley Division follows the river bend through Gilbertville and Canton. This era shows a densely settled rural economy organized around localized school districts and water-powered centers. Along the Nezinscot River, settlements like Buckfield and West Sumner thrive, while more specialized points such as Brettuns Mills Livermore PO and Mt Oxford Spring highlight the specific industrial and natural resources of the early twentieth century. Dozens of small schools, including the Meadowview Academy Hill and the Prince School, are scattered among the peaks of Black Mountain and Trask Mtn, marking a period when educational and social life was deeply decentralized and tied to these specific upland neighborhoods.
