1893 Map of Buxton

USGS Topo · Published 1898

About this map

The Saco River defines the industrial and geographic character of York and Cumberland counties in the late nineteenth century, powering a series of significant mill settlements. From Bonny Eagle down to Bar Mills and Union Falls, the river’s drop provided the energy for the region's timber and textile economies. This topography, surveyed in 1889 by W.H. Lovell under the direction of Marcus Baker, reveals a landscape where water and rail connectivity dictated development.
