About this map

The Androscoggin River winds through this 1930 survey of the New Hampshire and Maine borderlands, anchoring a landscape of timber and early aviation. The town of Milan sits at the heart of the valley, surrounded by a network of rural schoolhouses including Willis Sch, Jewett Sch, and Milan Hill Sch. A notable piece of infrastructure is the Berlin Landing Field located just south of the main settlement, alongside the riverbanks.

To the east, the terrain rises into the Mahoosuc Range and the high ridges of Cambridge Black Mtn. The northern reaches are dominated by the waters of Umbagog Lake and the Thirteen Mile Woods, highlighting the region's character as a crossroads of logging and wilderness. Features like the Fire Tower on Jodrie Hill and various family-named landmarks like Peabody Hill and Veezey Hill provide specific points of interest for those tracing local genealogy or land use.
