1949 Map of Machias

USGS Topo · Published 1962

About this map

The coastal town of Machias serves as the focal point of this coastal Washington County landscape, where the confluence of the Machias River and Middle River meets the tide. The settlement pattern in the late 1940s reveals a community deeply tied to its waterways and educational heritage, anchored by the Washington State Normal School and the coastal clusters at Machiasport Station and East Machias. Moving south toward the Atlantic, the terrain transitions into the jagged peninsulas of Machias Bay and Little Kennebec Bay, dotted with family-named points like Fort O'Brien Pt and Randall Point.
