2021 Map of Liberty

About this map

Liberty serves as a central hub in this Waldo County landscape, situated at the outlet of Saint George Lake where the Saint George River begins its course southward. The terrain is defined by a series of distinct elevations, including Haystack Mtn and Hogback Mtn, which separate the various drainage basins of Halfmoon Stream, the Sheepscot River, and Stearns Brook. Genealogists will find a wealth of local history preserved in numerous burial grounds such as Mount Repose Cem, Hunts Memorial Cem, and Bradstreet Cem. Small rural clusters and crossroads settlements like Smithton, Whites Corner, and Thurstons Corner illustrate the historic settlement patterns of the Maine interior. The map also details the island-dotted waters of Saint George Lake, featuring Birch Island, Millstone Island, and Green Island, providing a clear record of the area's hydrography and shoreline development.
