1893 Map of Vassalboro

USGS Topo · Published 1898

About this map

Kennebec River corridor life is recorded here during the late nineteenth century, showing a landscape defined by its glacial lakes and the early industrial influence of the Maine Central RR. The topography reveals a series of north-south drumlins and ridges that separate the Kennebec from the upper reaches of the Sheepscot River. Several smaller milling and agricultural centers like Seaward Mills and Weeks Mills appear alongside the larger village at North Vassalboro, which sits at the head of the Outlet Stream. The area's hydrology is complex, dominated by the massive China Lake and a string of smaller bodies including Togus Pond and Threemile Pond. This survey offers a precise view of the rural road network and township boundaries such as Windsor and Vassalboro before the twentieth-century expansion of local infrastructure.
