1950 Map of Kingsbury

About this map

Kingsbury Pond sits at the heart of this Maine landscape, serving as a focal point for the small settlements and crossroads that define the region. In the mid-century, the area remained a network of rural hamlets, many identified by family-named junctions such as Mayfield Corner, Burdin Corner, and Huff Corner. The map reveals a community structured around its topography and local institutions, featuring the Campbell Sch and several small burial grounds including Foss Hill Cem and Taylor Cem. The terrain is characterized by numerous water bodies like Austin Pond and Whetstone Pond, alongside prominent heights such as Bald Mountain and Kelly Mtn, the latter of which features a Lookout Tower. This survey captures the transition from a wilderness economy toward a more established rural infrastructure, evidenced by the scattered bogs, flowages, and the presence of the Piscataquis River in the northeast corner.
