1988 Map of Greenbush

About this map

The Penobscot River dominates this landscape, branching into a complex network of channels and named islands including Sugar Island, White Squaw Island, and Olamon Island. This 1980s revision reflects the late-century rural character of Penobscot County, where small riverside communities like Argyle and Greenbush are connected by narrow roads following the water's edge. The geography is defined by its low-lying hydrology, from the expansive Alton Bog in the southwest to the winding paths of Birch Stream and Hemlock Stream. Local history and genealogy interest is anchored by several small burial grounds such as Hoyt Brook Cem, Hemlock Cem, and Cedarvale Cem. The map also documents the area's resource-based economy through the presence of several Gravel Pits and the Pumping Sta near the Corporate Boundary Old Town, illustrating the infrastructure supporting these North Woods settlements.
