1949 Map of Machias Bay

About this map

Holmes Bay and its intricate network of coves and islands define this Washington County coast, where the land and sea meet in a complex of mud flats and rocky points. Inland, small rural settlements like Lowell and Ackley are scattered among prominent elevations such as Enoch Hill and Woodruff Mtn. The social fabric of the era is anchored by local landmarks like the Holmes Bay Ch and Holmes Bay Sch, which served as central nodes for the surrounding community.
