About this map

Gardiner and its neighboring communities of Farmingdale, Randolph, and South Gardiner flank the Kennebec River in this modern topographic study. The landscape is defined by the significant confluence of the Cobbosseecontee Stream and the river, a historical focal point for industry and settlement. Elevated features like Iron Mine Hill and Libby Hill rise above the river valley, while the intricate river morphology is detailed through landmarks such as Farmingdale Shoal, Nehumkeag Island, and The Sands.

Genealogists will find an exceptional density of burial sites recorded, including the Oak Grove Cem, Saint Josephs Cem, and Christ Church Cem in the urban core, alongside smaller rural plots like the Brown Family Cem and Reed Cem. The map clearly delineates the meeting of three counties—Kennebec, Sagadahoc, and Lincoln—near the southern reaches of the river, where the Abagadasset River and Wilmot Brook contribute to the watershed.
