About this map

The Piscataquis River bisects this Maine landscape, serving as the central corridor for the shire town of Dover-Foxcroft. Modern development centers on the intersection of the river and local roads like River St and Main St, while outlying settlements such as East Dover and South Dover maintain their identity through local landmarks and historic burial grounds. The map reveals a high concentration of genealogical resources, including Harriman Cem, Lee Cem, and the South Dover Cem.

Away from the town center, the terrain is defined by water and elevation, from the heights of Garland Hill and Norton Hill to the wetlands surrounding Garland Pond and Harriman Pond. Small hamlets like Starbirds are linked by a network of rural routes such as Bolton Rd and Bessey Rd. The presence of the Charles A Chase Jr Memorial Field indicates the community's modern recreational spaces amidst a landscape still dominated by brooks and streams like Alder Stream and Black Stream.
