1975 Map of Vassalboro SW

About this map

Togus and the surrounding woodlands of Kennebec County define this orthophotoquad, captured through aerial photography in the mid-1970s. The monochrome imagery reveals a complex network of forest, clearings, and rural homesteads, providing a raw look at the landscape before modern suburban expansion. While most of the sheet is dominated by dense canopy and natural water features like the various unnamed ponds and a Brook, the southern edge contains the organized settlement of Chelsea. This visual record is particularly valuable for identifying the exact footprint of mid-century rural development and the preservation of historic property lines in this part of Maine.
