About this map

Kennebunk and its surrounding river-driven hamlets are captured here at the start of the 21st century, showing a landscape defined by the winding courses of the Kennebunk River and the Mousam River. The map details the historical core of the region, from the dense settlement at West Kennebunk to the industrial legacy of Bartlett Mills and Days Mill. This survey provides significant genealogical value, documenting numerous family and community burial grounds such as the Unitarian Churchyard Cem, Wells Branch Graveyard, and Lord Thompson Cem.

Evidence of the area's maritime and educational heritage remains visible through features like Kennebunk Landing and The Landing Sch. The terrain north of the town center transitions into a patchwork of ponds and brooks, including Alewife Pond and Brimstone Pond, which shaped the early development of rural outposts like Alewife. Modern infrastructure, including the highway corridor, now intersects these older routes and property lines like the Nathan Hanson Lot and Joseph Chick Lot.
