2021 Map of Quill Hill

About this map

Kennebago Settlement and Langtown Mill anchor this landscape in Franklin County, illustrating the interior logging and settlement patterns of western Maine. The South Branch Dead River winds through the center of the sheet, joined by Baker Brook and surrounded by a high-elevation network of peaks and basins. The terrain is defined by the massive profile of East Kennebago Mtn and the prominent Quill Hill, while the lower elevations are dotted with water bodies including Greely Pond, Bill Pond, and Quill Pond. Transportation history is visible in the alignment of Narrow Gauge Rd and Old State Rte 16, reflecting the infrastructure required to navigate and extract resources from this upland region. Smaller access points like Harris Pasture Rd and Cherry Run Rd provide more localized detail for genealogists and researchers tracking the reach of remote settlements.
