2021 Map of Dixmont

About this map

Mt Harris stands as a prominent landmark in this rural Maine landscape, overseeing a terrain defined by small settlements and numerous family-named burial grounds. The map documents the persistent agricultural and village patterns of Dixmont and North Dixmont, where roads like the Moosehead Trl connect the community. To the west, the village of Troy and its neighbor East Troy sit near the wetlands of Bog Brook. Local history is deeply etched into the land through an unusually high concentration of small cemeteries, including the Sawyer Cem, Snow Cem, and Jewell Cem, which offer significant value for genealogical research. Water features such as Martin Stream and Cates Meadows suggest a long history of water-dependent industry and meadow farming, while the label for Rollins Mills in the northeast corner points to former milling sites along the streams crossing the Penobscot and Waldo county line.
