About this map

Unity Pond dominates the southern landscape of this central Maine quadrangle, where the borders of Somerset, Waldo, and Penobscot counties converge. The terrain is defined by low-lying wetlands and intricate water systems, including the expansive Chain Meadows and the winding course of Carlton Stream which feeds into Carlton Pond. Small settlements and historic crossroads are scattered throughout the region, reflecting a rural community structure established around family-named landmarks and local intersections such as Greens Corner and Reynolds Corner.

Genealogists and local historians will find several burial grounds mapped in detail, including Fairview Cem near Troy Center and the Reynolds Cem situated near the western shore of the pond in Oakwood. The network of roads, including the long stretch of Horseback Rd and the Stagecoach Rd, reveals the primary transit corridors connecting these disparate rural neighborhoods and lakeside developments like Windemere.
