1977 Map of Monson East

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Monson and the surrounding Piscataquis County landscape are captured in this orthophotoquad, which uses rectified aerial imagery to show the region exactly as it appeared in the late 1970s. The settlement pattern is clearly visible along the southern reaches, concentrated at Goodell Corner and the community center of Monson. These residential and agricultural clearings provide a sharp contrast to the dense timberland that dominates the northern half of the sheet. The hydrological network is the defining natural feature, with the sizable Big Greenwood Pond and Monson Pond anchoring the terrain. Flowing through the center of the quadrangle, Big Wilson Stream passes by Willimantic, illustrating the historical reliance on water systems for both transport and early industry in the Maine interior. The inclusion of Finn Hall provides a specific point of interest for those researching local social history and immigrant heritage in the area.
