About this map

East Boothbay and the rugged coastline of Lincoln County define this coastal survey, where the Damariscotta River meets the Atlantic Ocean. The map documents a deeply indented shoreline shaped by narrow peninsulas and numerous islands, including Linekin Neck and the villages of South Bristol and Christmas Cove. Maritime transit is a primary feature of the area, evidenced by the Monhegan Island Fry crossing the waters of Johns Bay.

Local history is preserved in small burial grounds such as Oaklawn Cem and Farnham Cem, alongside long-established seaside communities like Ocean Point and Pemaquid Beach. The southern reaches of the map extend to remote outposts like Damariscove Harbor and Outer Heron Island, illustrating the area's intricate network of ledges and harbors that have long supported Maine's fishing and maritime traditions.
