1965 Map of Union

About this map

Seven Tree Pond and the St George River dominate the central valley of this mid-1960s Knox County landscape. The settlement of Union serves as the local hub, supported by smaller hamlets like South Union and the outlying community of Appleton. The map provides a detailed look at the rural infrastructure of the era, including the Thompson Memorial Sch and the local Fairgrounds situated near Round Pond. Evidence of the region's transport history is found in the Old Railroad Grade winding through the terrain, while numerous family-named landmarks such as Whitney Corner and Benner Corner mark the intersections of the local road network. The western portion of the quadrangle transitions into the drainage of the Medomak River, characterized by prominent elevations like Clarry Hill and the waters of Medomak Pond.
