1946 Map of Norway

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

Norway and South Paris serve as the commercial anchors for this mid-century look at the Oxford Hills, where the Grand Trunk railroad line traces the path of the Little Androscoggin River. The landscape is a complex network of glacial lakes and river valleys, with the Crooked River winding through the center of the sheet past industrial vestiges like Scribners Mill and Bolsters Mills. The map reveals a deeply rooted rural infrastructure, documenting the location of numerous one-room schoolhouses such as Maple Ridge Sch and Chapel District Sch, alongside civic landmarks like the Town Farm and the Bell Hill Meeting House. From the elevations of Mt Tire'm and Newcomb Mtn down to the shores of Long Lake, the settlement patterns reflect a transition from 19th-century hill farming to a more concentrated valley economy centered on water power and rail access.
