About this map

Newbury Neck extends deep into the waters of coastal Maine, separating Morgan Bay from the Union River estuary. This coastal landscape is defined by its numerous small settlements and family-named landmarks, such as Richs Corner and South Surry. The geography here is a complex arrangement of points and coves, including Poignant Point and Curtis Cove, which have shaped the local maritime identity for generations.

Genealogical researchers will find a significant concentration of burial sites across the peninsula, from the Village Cem in the north to the cluster of Oak Point Cemeteries at the southern tip. The eastern shore near Bayside and West Trenton reveals a density of named cemeteries including Haynes Gilley Jordan Cem and Goose Cove Cem, reflecting a long history of established families. The southernmost reaches of the map include a portion of Acadia National Park at Black Island and Green Island.
