About this map

The Little Androscoggin River carves a central path through this 1942 tactical map, anchoring the industrial and rail hub of Mechanic Falls. This area of Androscoggin County is defined by its series of glacial water bodies, from Lake Auburn in the east to the Lower Range Pond, Middle Range Pond, and Upper Range Pond sequence near the legendary resort grounds of Poland Spring. The landscape reflects a diverse early-20th-century economy, where the Grand Trunk and Maine Central railroads connect mill sites like Hackett Mills with high-elevation institutions such as the Sanitarium on Greenwood Hill. Local life is visible in the network of rural schoolhouses and spiritual sites, including the Bald Hill Sch and the Empire Grove Campground, illustrating the transition from wilderness to a settled agricultural and recreational corridor.
