2014 Map of Goodwin

About this map

Grimes Mill and the banks of the Aroostook River anchor this 2014 survey of the rural landscape between Caribou and Presque Isle. The settlement pattern here reflects the agricultural and industrial history of Aroostook County, with numerous small communities such as East Lyndon, Maysville, and Goodwin connected by a dense network of local roads and rail sidings. Of particular interest to genealogists are the many family and parish burial grounds, including the Old Catholic Cem, Grimes Kelly Cem, and Bubar Cem, which are scattered throughout the hills. High points like Old Higgins Hill and Prestile Hill rise above the drainage basins of Nichols Brook and Hardwood Brook, illustrating the varied terrain of this northern Maine borderland.
