1968 Map of Wilton

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Wilson Stream and the Central Maine Railroad corridor define the industrial and agricultural landscape of Franklin County in the late 1960s. The village of Wilton serves as a central hub, flanked by the residential and recreational waters of Wilson Pond and Pease Pond. Moving south through the hills, the terrain transitions into the industrial works of North Jay, where several quarries and gravel pits underscore the area's geological economy. Along the Androscoggin River at Jay and Riley, the map records specialized infrastructure such as a drive-in theater and an industrial waste pond, reflecting the mid-century intersection of community leisure and manufacturing. Numerous family-named crossroads like Beans Corner, Kennedys Corners, and Stones Corner provide critical landmarks for genealogists tracking local landholdings across the townships of Wilton, Jay, and Chesterville.
