About this map

The Penobscot River serves as the central artery for this Penobscot County landscape, defining the boundaries between the townships of Lincoln, Chester, and Winn. Small riverside settlements like Lincoln Center and North Lincoln are connected by a network of local routes including Town Farm Road and Bagley Mtn Road, while the river itself is punctuated by landforms like Brown Islands, Snow Island, and the Sebonibus Rapids.

Genealogists and local historians can find several established burial grounds, such as North Chester Cem, South Winn Cem, and Lincoln Center Cem, which sit near the river's edge. To the south and east, the terrain shifts into a dense network of water bodies, including Long Pond, Caribou Pond, and Cambolasse Pond. This area is anchored by local institutions like the Mattanawcook Academy, showing the community development in the late 20th century alongside the natural resources of the Maine interior.
