About this map

The Saco River and the Maine Central RR define the industrial and transit corridor of this region during the early twentieth century. This survey documents the transition from river-based power to rail-dependent trade, most visible at the intersection of water and rail near East Brownfield Brownfield Sta. The landscape is dotted with rural educational and social centers, including the prominent Parsonsfield Seminary and a network of neighborhood schoolhouses like the Blake School and Rounds School.
