About this map

Ellsworth and its industrial heart along the Union River define this coastal Maine landscape. The river's power is harnessed by several structures, including the Ellsworth Dam and the Ellsworth Water Company Dam further upstream at Leonard Lake. These water resources supported the local economy, while the Graham Lake Dam to the north controls the significant expanse of Graham Lake, which dominates the northern half of the quadrangle.

Genealogists can find numerous burial sites throughout the area, such as the Old Burying Ground Cemetery near the city center and the Woodbine Cemetery to the east. The map captures the transportation hub at Washington Junction and smaller outlying communities like Joyville and Fletchers Landing. Specialized landmarks like the Green Lake National Fish Hatchery and recreational spaces such as the White Birches Golf Course highlight the diverse land use of the region in the early 21st century.
