About this map

The Penobscot River dictates the layout of Penobscot County in this modern survey, its waters carrying past islands like Brown Islands and Snow Island. Settlements such as Lincoln Center and North Lincoln are situated along the eastern bank, connected by the historic corridor of the Military Rd. The landscape is a complex network of glacial ponds and drainages, including the Cambolasse Stream Reservoir and the expansive Center Pond.

Genealogists can identify several local burial grounds, such as Lincoln Center Cem and Middle Chester Cem, which reflect the dispersed nature of these riverside communities. To the north, the terrain rises toward Glidden Hill and Bagley Mtn, while the river breaks into the Sebonibus Rapids, illustrating the varied hydrology that supported Maine's historic timber and mill economies along this stretch of the Penobscot.
