About this map

Ogunquit and York Beach anchor this coastal survey, where the rugged Maine shoreline is defined by numerous points, coves, and family-named land tracts. The map records a significant concentration of historical family lots, such as the Stephen Freeman Lot, Charles Bragdon Family Lot, and Jedediah Perkins Lot, providing an invaluable resource for tracing local lineage and land ownership. These private holdings are interspersed with local landmarks like Wadleighs Head and Cape Neddick.

Maritime features and small burial grounds characterize the landscape between Ogunquit Beach and East Point. Several small cemeteries, including Locust Grove Cem and Webber-Merrow Cem, are documented alongside coastal features like the Cape Neddick Nubble and the offshore Boon Island. The interior shows a network of local roads connecting peaks like Walnut Hill and Clay Hill to the busy seasonal waterfronts.
