1892 Map of Buxton

USGS Topo · Published 1933

About this map

The Saco River serves as the industrial and geographic spine of this York County landscape, its course marked by numerous mill sites including Nasons Mills, Bar Mills, Salmon Falls, and Union Falls. Surveyed in the late 1880s, the map reveals a rural economy driven by water power and the arrival of the Boston and Maine railroad, which cuts through the southern terrain near Waterboro and East Waterboro. Small settlements like Bonny Eagle and Chicopee are shown at the height of their village development, while the unique community of Shaker Village is documented near the shores of Shaker Pond in the southwest corner.
