1950 Map of Petit Manan

USGS Topo · Published 1950

About this map

Corea serves as a focal point for this coastal survey of the jagged Down East shoreline, where the village and its Corea Harbor are defined by the intricate relationship between the land and the Atlantic. The landscape is dominated by expansive areas of Heath and numerous protected inlets such as Dyer Harbor and Joy Bay. Topographic details reveal the importance of local navigation and fishing, with dozens of named ledges, coves, and points like Dolly Head and Rogers Point marking the granite-bound coast. Notable genealogical sites include the Corea Cem and a Spire in the settlement. The map also captures the complex hydrography of the Sally Islands and Petit Manan Point, using data from surveys dating back to 1870. This intersection of early hydrographic soundings and mid-century aerial photography provides a window into the maritime character of eastern Maine.
