About this map

The Sandy River winds through the heart of this Maine landscape, creating a series of river islands including Bowden Island, Farrand Island, and Greenleaf Island. At the dawn of the 1980s, the rural character of Somerset and Franklin counties is defined by small crossroads settlements like Mercer and Starks, connected by winding routes like River Road. The map reveals a deeply rooted local history through its numerous small burial grounds, such as Locke Cem and Frederic Cem, often found near old farmstead sites and stream junctions. Small-scale aviation and industry are present at the Beech Hill Airport and various Gravel Pits, while the drainage of Bog Stream and Lemon Stream highlights the complex hydrology of the region's low-lying valleys and wooded hillsides.
