1967 Map of Canton

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Canton serves as the focal point of this Oxford County landscape, situated where the Maine Central railroad tracks skirt the eastern shore of Lake Anasagunticook. The winding Androscoggin River defines the northern topography, flowing past Canton Point and several significant gravel operations. The map provides a clear look at the industrial and community infrastructure of the late 1960s, documenting a network of rural cemeteries like Hillside Cem and Pine Grove Cem, as well as Bradbury Chapel and the small settlement of Gilbertville. Away from the river valley, the terrain is marked by numerous family-named landmarks including McCollister Hill and Staples Hill. An Old Railroad Grade suggests earlier transportation routes through the valley, while schools such as Academy Hill indicate established local centers of education and community life during this era.
