2014 Map of Swans Island
USGS Topo · Published 2014About this map
Swans Island anchors this coastal Maine survey, revealing a landscape defined by its maritime heritage and granite industry. The settlement of Minturn sits along the protected waters of Burnt Point, while the northern village of Richtown is marked by its namesake Richtown Cem. A legacy of stone extraction is evident at the Quarry near Long Cove, a site typical of the island's historical economy. Access to the mainland and neighboring islands is facilitated by the Swans Island Fry and the Bass Harbor-Frenchboro Fry, which connect this isolated terrain to the broader Hancock County coastline. Numerous small graveyards, including Irish Point Cem and Grindle Hill Cem, provide valuable points of interest for genealogical research, situated among topographical landmarks like Stockbridge Hill and Big Mtn.
