1892 Map of Buxton

About this map

The Saco River and Little Ossipee River dominate this late 19th-century landscape, providing the hydraulic power for a series of small industrial hamlets. Clusters of milling activity are evident at Nasons Mills, Salmon Falls, and Union Falls, where the river's descent toward the coast was harnessed by early manufacturers. This riverine economy is further illustrated by the presence of Clarks Mills and Goodwins Mills, which served as local processing hubs for the surrounding agricultural community.
