2024 Map of New Portland

About this map

The Carrabassett River winds through the heart of the New Portland valley, serving as the central axis for a series of distinct villages. In this modern survey, New Portland, North New Portland, and East New Portland appear as settled hubs connected by a network of rural routes like Wire Bridge Rd and Katie Crotch Rd. The landscape is defined by its significant water bodies and surrounding heights, including the prominent Gilman Pond and the elevations of Gilman Pond Mtn and New Portland Hill. For genealogists, the map is particularly useful for locating several community burial sites, such as the North New Portland Cem and West New Portland Cem, which are clearly marked along the river's path and local thoroughfares. To the north, the settlement of Lexington Flats and the expansive Hancock Pond mark the transition toward the higher terrain of Chandler Hill and Hackett Hill.
