1935 Map of Stetson

USGS Topo · Published 1945

About this map

Stetson and its surrounding townships define this rural landscape in the 1930s, characterized by a dense network of local schools and mills that once anchored small farming communities. The Maine Central railroad cuts through the southern portion of the sheet, connecting towns like East Newport and Etna, while providing a vital link for the agricultural and timber economy of the era. The terrain is defined by its water, from the expansive Sebasticook Lake to the meandering Kenduskeag Stream and the wetlands of Etna Bog. Genealogy researchers will find significant value in the distribution of family-named landmarks and institutions, such as Chamberlain Ch, the Fairgrounds in Exeter, and numerous district schoolhouses like Bonds Cors Sch and Longfellow Sch. Small-scale industrial sites, including French Mill and Mc Gregor Mill, illustrate how local streams were harnessed for production in these Penobscot County settlements.
