About this map

Pleasant River winds through the heart of Washington County, defining a landscape marked by small inland settlements and unique agricultural terrain. The village of Epping sits at the junction of several local roads, while Columbia and Georgetown anchor the southern portion of the sheet. For genealogists, the map preserves the locations of Columbia Cem, Malley Hill Cem, and Forest Hills Cem, providing critical reference points for local family histories.

Industry and topography are closely linked here, evidenced by the Blueberry Barrens and the prominent glacial features of Pineo Ridge and Pea Ridge. Water is a constant presence, from the expansive Great Marsh Stream to the numerous small ponds like Schoodic Lake and Silica Ponds. The network of secondary roads, such as Tibbettstown Rd and Meetinghouse Rd, illustrates a pattern of rural Maine settlement that has persisted into the 21st century.
