About this map

Ludlow and Smyrna Center serve as the primary hubs in this corner of Aroostook County, where the landscape is defined by a series of prominent elevations and a dense network of brooks. The terrain is marked by distinctive highlands such as Bull Ridge, Number Seven Ridge, and Gardiner Ridge, which separate the various watersheds. Local history is anchored at the Yerxa Cemetery near the crossing of Marley Brook and Ludlow Rd, providing a specific point of interest for genealogists tracking early families in the area.

Water plays a central role in the local geography, with numerous named bodies of water including Cochrane Lake, Timoney Lake, and the small Lamb Brook Dam. The road network, featuring routes like Smyrna Center Rd and Cochran Lake Rd, connects these remote settlements and lakes, illustrating the rural infrastructure of northern Maine. The map details the complex drainage system of the region, from the headwaters of Mill Brook to the sprawling B Lake.
