1975 Map of Sherman SW

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

The agricultural and timber lands of southern Aroostook and northern Penobscot County are captured here in the mid-1970s. The settlement of Benedicta serves as a central landmark, situated within a patchwork of cleared fields and dense woods that characterize this portion of Maine. Further north, the communities of Sherman and Sherman Mills highlight the historical importance of the region's milling and farming industry. The landscape is defined by its water systems, including the winding course of Salmon Stream and the dark waters of Plunkett Pond. This orthophoto provides a precise visual record of land use and forest cover during a period of modern rural development, showing the relationship between small-town centers like Stacyville and the surrounding wilderness. Researchers can observe the exact footprint of farmsteads and rural roads before the further expansion of regional infrastructure.
