2011 Map of Wayne

About this map

Pocasset Lake and Wilson Pond anchor this landscape in south-central Maine, where the villages of Wayne and North Monmouth sit amidst a network of interconnected waterways. The hydrologic connectivity is a defining feature of the area, evidenced by a series of water-control structures including the Wayne Village Dam, Wilson Pond Dam, and Lovejoy Pond Dam. The intricate shoreline of Pocasset Lake is dotted with landmarks like Androscoggin Island, Norris Island, and Blodgett Island, while the surrounding hills rise to local heights at Mount Pisgah and Morrison Heights. Genealogists will find interest in several historic burial grounds, such as Wing Cemetery near the north shore and Glenside Cemetery to the east. The map captures a mix of rural settlement and recreational geography, from the Riverbend Campground along the Dead River to the residential clusters at Curtis Corner and North Wayne.
