1931 Map of Square Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1931

About this map

St Agatha and the surrounding townships in northern Aroostook County are defined by a vast interconnected chain of water bodies, including Square Lake, Cross Lake, and Long Lake. This 1927 survey reveals a landscape where early 20th-century settlement was concentrated along the ridges and road networks near the lakes, supported by timber and milling operations like Carriveau Mill. The presence of numerous district schools, such as Washington Sch, Webster Sch, and Coolidge Sch, illustrates a decentralized rural education system serving dispersed families across Frenchville and Saint Agatha. The map details the transition from organized towns to the wilder timberlands of the Unorganized Territory, where remote outposts like Austin Camp, Fraser Camp, and Nixon Camp line the shores, providing a window into the era's reliance on the waterways for both industry and seasonal subsistence.
