1935 Map of Dover-Foxcroft

About this map

The Piscataquis River cuts through the heart of this central Maine landscape, anchoring the bustling industrial hub of Dover-Foxcroft. In the mid-1930s, the region was defined by a dense network of rural schoolhouses and family-named corners, reflecting a settled agricultural and timber economy. One can trace the Maine Central railroad corridor as it passes East Dover and Sebec Sta Po, while smaller hamlets like Silvers Mills and Dover South Mills illustrate the local importance of water power at sites like Branns Mill Pond.
