2018 Map of Guilford

About this map

The Piscataquis River flows through the heart of this Piscataquis County landscape, anchoring the historic communities of Abbot Village and Guilford. This 2018 survey provides a modern view of a region defined by its narrow river valleys and numerous family-named landmarks. Genealogists will find a high concentration of burial sites, including the Abbot Village Cem, Elmwood Cem, and the small French's Cem near French Hill. The settlement pattern follows the water, with Upper Abbot and Monson Junction positioned near the confluence of the river and Kingsbury Stream. Further south, the town of Parkman is marked by the Parkman Corner Cem, while to the north, the terrain rises toward Faunce Hill and Oak Hill. The map also captures the ecological character of the area through features like Fairbrother Bog and Robinson Bog, which sit between the river and the northern peaks.
