About this map

Pittsfield serves as the focal point of this Somerset County landscape, where the Sebasticook River flows southward through Douglas Pond toward the town center. The area exhibits a classic New England layout of dispersed rural settlements like West Palmyra and Thompson, connected by a network of historic thoroughfares such as Canaan Rd and Higgins Rd. Genealogy researchers will find significant value in the detailed documentation of local burial grounds, including the Pine Grove Cem and its Pine Grove Cem Extension - Cool Division, alongside the West Pittsfield Cem and Warren Hill Cem.

The southern portion of the quadrangle shows the development of infrastructure including the Pittsfield Municipal Airport and industrial areas near Waverley. Natural features such as Canada Bog and numerous brooks like Farnham Brook and Hood Brook define the drainage patterns of the region's low-lying areas. The terrain is marked by prominent elevations including Huff Hill and Tuttle Hill, which overlook the surrounding agricultural and wooded tracts.
