About this map

Lincolnville and its surrounding coastal hills are defined by a network of inland ponds and a short stretch of Penobscot Bay frontage. The landscape transitions from the elevations of Megunticook Mtn and Bald Rock Mtn down toward the Ducktrap River valley. This 1960 record, with revisions through the early 1970s, illustrates a settled countryside marked by family-named crossroads like Clarks Corner, Drake Corner, and Grange Corner. The presence of numerous small burying grounds, including the Collier Cem and Beach Cem, speaks to the deep-rooted genealogical history of Waldo County.

Along the coast, the Lincolnville Ferry provides a vital link at Lincolnville village, while the interior is dotted with recreational and industrial landmarks. The map tracks the boundaries of Camden Hills State Park as it encompasses features like Maiden Cliff and Millerite Ledges. Resource extraction is evident through scattered Gravel Pits and Quarries, supporting the local infrastructure that connects Lincolnville Center to the neighboring townships.
