2021 Map of Monmouth

About this map

Cochnewagon Lake and the village of Monmouth define this central Maine landscape, where the town center and Monmouth Center Cem sit between the water and the surrounding highlands of Norris Hill and Sawyer Hill. To the west, the rail-oriented settlement of Leeds Junction reflects the region's historical transport patterns, while Sprague Mill and Wales Corner point to the dispersed industrial and agricultural hamlets that once populated the area. The map reveals a high density of ancestral sites for genealogists, including Keenes Corner Cem, Monmouth Ridge Cem, and Pond Road Cem. Significant terrain features like Sabattus Mtn and Monmouth Ridge contrast with the lowlands around Custer Pond and Maxwell Swamp, showing how the land dictated the placement of roads and homesteads across the county line between Kennebec and Androscoggin.
