2011 Map of Waterford Flat

About this map

Waterford Flat and the surrounding villages of South Waterford and East Waterford anchor this study of the Oxford Hills region as it appeared in the early 21st century. The landscape is defined by its abundance of water bodies and prominent granite-inflected terrain, including Mount Tire'm and Bear Mountain. The mapping of small, named settlements like Sodom and Yagger provides a detailed look at the rural residential patterns of the area. For genealogists, the map is particularly valuable for its precise location of numerous burial grounds, such as the Bisbeetown Cemetery, Finnish Cemetery, and Elm Vale Cemetery. The presence of several lakeside camps, including Camp Wigwam and Camp McWain, highlights the seasonal recreational character of Keoka Lake and McWain Pond, while the Mountain View Airport marks the localized aviation infrastructure of the period.
