2021 Map of Norway

About this map

Pennesseewassee Lake dominates the central landscape of this western Maine region, anchoring the adjacent settlements of Norway and Norway Lake. The area's administrative importance is evident in South Paris, where the Oxford County Superior Courthouse and Maine District Court sit near the banks of the Little Androscoggin River. This modern survey illustrates the persistent cultural footprint of the 19th-century hill farms through numerous family-named peaks like Pike Hill, Frost Hill, and Hathaway Hill. Genealogists will find a dense network of burial grounds throughout the countryside, ranging from the Riverside Annex Cem in the east to the Caswells Corner Cem and Merrill Memorial Cem near Otisfield Gore in the south, reflecting the historical distribution of early townships and family plots.
