1917 Map of Passadumkeag

USGS Topo · Published 1934

About this map

The Penobscot River serves as the central artery of this region during the early twentieth century, dotted with a series of named islands including Sugar Island, Olamon Island, and the uniquely named White Squaw I. These islands and the riverbanks reflect a landscape shaped by both water and rail, with the Bangor and Aroostook and the Maine Central Road providing critical transit corridors. The topographic data reveals the prominent glacial ridges known locally as Horseback, which dictate the placement of roads and early settlements like Passadumkeag and Greenbush. Local community life is anchored by a network of rural schoolhouses, such as the Edinburg School, Ridge School, and Spearin School. Farther inland, the landscape transitions to the woods of Summit Plantation and the vicinity of Cold Stream Pond, illustrating the typical Maine pattern of river-valley development bordering dense timberlands.
