About this map

The Kennebec River corridor defines the geography of this central Maine landscape, where agricultural history and riverside settlement intersect. This modern survey illustrates the enduring patterns of rural life across Vassalboro and Sidney, connected by a network of historic roads like Riverside Dr and Town Farm Rd. The area is particularly notable for its dense concentration of family and community burial grounds, such as the Smiley Farm Cem and Bangs Cem, which serve as vital markers of the region's genealogical heritage.

Upland from the river, the terrain rises toward Cook Hill and Taber Hill, while the southeastern portion of the map is dominated by the waters of Webber Pond. Small communities such as Riverside and Seaward Mills remain distinct hubs, and the northern boundary of Augusta enters the frame near Sevenmile Island, showing the transition from the state capital's outskirts into the wooded hills of Kennebec County.
