2011 Map of Morrill

About this map

Quantabacook Lake and the Passagassawakeag River dominate this Waldo County landscape, where the town of Morrill serves as a central hub. The geography is defined by a series of prominent rises including Spears Mountain, Frye Mountain, and Pierce Hill, which overlook a network of smaller ponds and streams. This inland Maine region maintains its rural character through established crossroads such as North Searsmont, West Searsmont, and Center Montville. The presence of Smiths Millpond Dam and Ruffingham Meadows Dam suggests a history of water management and local industry tied to the flow of Bartlett Stream and Wilson Brook. For those researching local families, the map identifies several burial grounds, including Carter Cemetery, Sunny Side Cemetery, and Green Wood Cemetery. The distribution of these sites alongside historical corridors like Robinson Schoolhouse Rd and Old Route 3 provides a clear view of how these communities developed through the years.
