2011 Map of New Vineyard

About this map

New Vineyard and West Mills serve as the primary hubs in this section of Franklin County, where the landscape is defined by the New Vineyard Mountains and the persistent flow of Lemon Stream. The local economy and settlement patterns are closely tied to the water, as evidenced by the Bauds Pond Dam and the Mill Pond located near the village center. This area exhibits a typical Maine interior geography, with scattered family-named peaks such as Caswell Mountain, Griffin Mountain, and Norton Mountain surrounding the low-lying New Vineyard Basin. For genealogists and local historians, the Boardman-True Cemetery and the New Vineyard Post Office provide essential reference points for tracing early families and civic development. The network of brooks, including Luce Brook, Barker Brook, and Mitchell Brook, illustrates the intricate drainage system that historically supported the region's timber and agricultural interests.
