1904 Map of Deer Isle

USGS Topo · Published 1926

About this map

Stonington serves as the bustling maritime hub at the southern tip of the island in this early 20th-century survey, surrounded by a complex network of coastal villages like Sunset and Mountainville. The coastal economy of Hancock County is illustrated by the established Steamboat Route winding through Merchant Row and Eggemoggin Reach, connecting the archipelago to mainland trade. The interior of the islands is dotted with freshwater bodies such as Lily Pond and Torrey Pond, while the shoreline is defined by numerous family-named coves including Greenlaw Cove and Conary Cove. To the south, the isolated elevations of Isle au Haut rise prominently, featuring landmarks like Bald Mt. and the sheltered Moore Harbor. This topographical record documents the transition of these island communities from traditional fishing and granite quarrying centers into more connected coastal settlements.
