1985 Map of Lincoln

About this map

The Penobscot River serves as the central artery for this region of Penobscot County, where the Maine Central RR and Canadian Pacific RR facilitate trade across the timber-heavy interior. Significant riverfront settlements like Lincoln and Howland are established at key confluences, including where the Piscataquis River and Mattawamkeag River join the Penobscot. Further south, the State Nursery and smaller hamlets such as Olamon and Passadumkeag line the river valley, while the eastern landscape transitions into a vast system of lakes and ridges.
