About this map

Kenduskeag Stream winds southeastward through this mid-1970s landscape, serving as the central artery for the village of Kenduskeag and the surrounding rural hamlets. The map documents a period of established agricultural and residential patterns in Penobscot County, where small settlements like South Corinth, Robyville, and Higginsville are connected by a network of named local roads. The landscape is characterized by a mix of low-lying wetlands, such as Beaver Meadow Brook and Marston Meadow Brook, and modest elevations like Hudson Hill.

Genealogists and local historians will find value in the placement of family-centric landmarks and community sites, including Evergreen Cem and Waugh Cem. Infrastructure of the era is well-represented, from the Covered Bridge near Robyville to the recreational Golf Course and the utility-focused Gaging Sta. The transition between the townships of Corinth, Hudson, and Kenduskeag is clearly defined, showing the distribution of woodlots and cleared fields typical of the Maine interior during this decade.
