1921 Map of Columbia Falls

About this map

Maine Central rail lines weave through the coastal lowlands and inland forests of Washington County, connecting established timber and fishing communities during the early twentieth century. This survey documents the complex maritime geography of the Down East shoreline, where the Chandler River, Pleasant River, and Machias River empty into a network of bays and passages. The settlement pattern is defined by traditional crossroads like Tracy Corners and Peasley Corners, alongside coastal hubs such as Jonesport and Beals.
