1956 Map of Poland

USGS Topo · Published 1958

About this map

Mechanic Falls and the surrounding mill towns of Androscoggin County are captured here in the mid-1950s, a period of industrial transition. The Little Androscoggin River serves as the central artery for this region, winding through the manufacturing center and past Hackett Mills. The landscape is defined by its specialized institutions, such as the Western Maine Sanatorium in Hebron and the renowned resort grounds at Poland Spring. This era shows a complex transportation network where traditional rail lines like the Maine Central Railroad and the Canadian National Railway intersect with the modernizing footprint of the Lewiston-Auburn Municipal Airport. Genealogists will find a wealth of specific local landmarks, from family-named crossings like Skilling Corner and Haskell Corner to small cemeteries such as Fairview Cem and the uniquely named Promised Land Cem.
