About this map

Casco Bay defines the southeastern edge of this coastal Maine landscape, where the Royal River meets the sea amid a complex of points and coves. The town of Yarmouth serves as the central hub, situated near the intersection of major transport corridors including the St Lawrence & Atlantic RR. The mapping detail captures the transition from the developed town center to the outlying rural settlements of Crockett Corner, Dunns, and Sodom.

Genealogists and local historians can locate numerous burial grounds across the quadrangle, from Riverside Cem near the riverbanks to the more secluded Davis Cem and Pine Grove Cem. The map provides a clear view of the islands and maritime features that characterize the shoreline, including Cousins Island and Littlejohn Island, connected to the mainland near Cumberland Foreside. This 2018 survey illustrates the modern configuration of historic rail junctions at Yarmouth Junction and Royal Junction.
