1955 Map of Louds Island

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Louds Island and the neighboring Bremen Long Island dominate the waters of Muscongus Bay in this mid-century coastal survey. The map details a landscape defined by saltwater channels like Hockomock Channel and land-bound water bodies such as Biscay Pond and Webber Pond. Settlement is concentrated in small coastal villages including Round Pond, Muscongus, and Loudville, where local genealogy is anchored by sites like the Loudville Cem and Maple Grove Cem. The interior shows a working landscape of quarries, borrow pits, and ruins, suggesting an era of transition for these mid-coast Maine communities. Navigational hazards such as Killick Stone Island and Thrumcap Island are meticulously noted alongside the complex seafloor contours of the Muscongus Sound, reflecting the deep maritime heritage of Lincoln County.
