1951 Map of Mars Hill

About this map

The Bangor And Aroostook and Canadian Pacific railroads dominate the early 1950s landscape of this Aroostook County border region, following the natural corridors carved by the Aroostook River and Prestile Brook. This survey captures a rural economy built on the rail network, connecting agricultural hubs like Easton, Westfield, and Blaine to larger markets. Along the international boundary, the U S Customs post and the Rivière des Chutes Ch highlight the area's cross-border movement. The topography is anchored by the prominent Mars Hill landform in the southeast, while the surrounding valley is dotted with local landmarks such as Kings Grove Cem, Ladner Sch, and a small Landing Strip. The density of cemeteries like Pierce Cem and Marshall Cem provides a rich resource for genealogical research in these small northern Maine townships.
