1956 Map of The Forks

USGS Topo · Published 1961

About this map

Kennebec River and Moxie Stream define this mid-century landscape in Somerset County, where the rugged interior of Maine was managed through a network of dams and timber-related infrastructure. The map highlights the engineering of the Harris Dam on the upper Kennebec River, creating the expansive Indian Pond and its spillway. Settlement is concentrated at The Forks, where the Kennebec River meets the Dead River, supported by local institutions like Ball Sch and Franklin Sch.
