1942 Map of Deer Isle

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Stonington and the surrounding granite-rich landscape of Hancock County are captured in this survey conducted during the early 1940s. The region's industrial character is evident through several marked Quarries and Quarry sites that supported the local economy. Coastal settlements such as Sunset, Oceanville, and Sunshine dot the convoluted shoreline of Deer Isle, while smaller outposts like Mountainville and The Haulover occupy the interior and narrow necks of the islands. To the south, the map details the northern reaches of Acadia National Park on Isle au Haut, showing a rugged coastal topography including Duck Harbor and Head Harbor. Genealogists will find the locations of Greenwood Cem and Forest Cem useful for tracing local family histories in this island community connected by State Route 15 and State Route 172.
