1956 Map of Stratton

About this map

Flagstaff Lake and its intricate shoreline dominate the northern half of this mid-century landscape, where the Dead River network was significantly altered by the creation of the reservoir. The small settlements of Stratton and Eustis serve as the primary hubs in this heavily timbered region, which is marked by high-altitude peaks including Bigelow Mountain and Sugarloaf Mtn. Genealogy and local history researchers can locate specific community markers like the Flagstaff Memorial Church and the Coplin School, which reflect the sparse but enduring settlement patterns of the area.
