2024 Map of Dixmont

About this map

Mt Harris stands as a prominent landmark in this rural landscape where Penobscot and Waldo counties meet. The settlement patterns of Dixmont and North Dixmont are centered around historical road corridors like the Moosehead Trl, while the small cluster at Rollins Mills suggests earlier water-powered industry along Martin Stream. For genealogists, the map is remarkably dense with family-named burial sites, including the Sawyer Cem, Hathaway Cem, and Jewell Cem, many of which are tucked away from the main thoroughfares. The terrain is characterized by extensive wetlands such as Skinner Bog and Cates Meadows, which have historically dictated the placement of farms and connector roads like Troy Center Rd. The survey provides a clear view of the transition from the upland heights near Common Hill to the stream-fed basins of Bog Brook and Great Farm Brook.
