2024 Map of Turner Center

About this map

Androscoggin River serves as the central artery of this region, winding past a sequence of river islands including Lovewell Island and Griswold Island. The landscape is defined by the confluence of the river with the Nezinscot River near Turner Center, a geography that historically dictated the placement of early crossings and milling operations. Numerous family and community cemeteries, such as Keens Mills Cem and Maple Grove Cem, are distributed along the ridges and valley floor, offering significant data points for genealogical research. The road network, including the old Merrills Mill Rd, traces the early development of The Plains and South Livermore, where the transition from riverfront to upland hills like Torry Hill and Monument Hill shaped the local agricultural and timber economy.
