1893 Map of Vassalboro

USGS Topo · Published 1925

About this map

The Kennebec River corridor defines the western edge of this 1891 survey, where the Maine Central R. R. follows the riverbank through Riverside and Vassalboro. The landscape is a glacial patchwork of prominent hills and interconnected water bodies, anchored by the massive reach of China Lake and smaller basins like Weber Pond and Threemile Pond. Several distinct village centers, including North Vassalboro and East Vassalboro, show the early settlement patterns of Kennebec County before the modernization of the mid-20th century. Local industry is evidenced by the presence of Seaward Mills and Weeks Mills, located along the winding tributaries like Sevenmile Brook. To the south, the community of Togus sits near Togus Pond, while the Kennebec Co. Lincoln Co. Boundary Line marks the transition into the neighboring Whitefield and Jefferson townships.
