2018 Map of Kingsbury

About this map

Kingsbury and Brighton sit at the intersection of Somerset and Piscataquis counties, anchored by a landscape defined by expansive bogs and mountain peaks. The topography is dominated by significant heights such as Foss Mtn and Kelly Mtn, while the lowlands are characterized by complex wetland systems including Whitman Bog, Bryant Bog, and Scribner Bog. Genealogists will find particular value in the documentation of local burial sites, with Flanders Cem, Foss Hill Cem, and Kelley Cem clearly marked across the terrain. The map details a network of rural routes like Old Kingsbury Rd and W Athens Rd that connect isolated settlements and water bodies such as Mayfield Pond and Wyman Pond. This 2018 survey provides a modern baseline for the drainage patterns of Higgins Stream and Grant Brook within this heavily forested region of Maine.
