1858 map detail showing Abbotsville and spring

Gillette and Huntington’s 1858 wall Map of Oxford County, Maine, identifies Mount Zircon as “Peaked Mt.” and Little Mount Zircon as “Thornton Mt.” Named for Dexter D. W. Abbott, the founder of the mineral spring business on Mount Zircon, “Abbotsville” appears near the center of this map segment, which includes portions of Rumford, Milton Plantation, and Franklin Plantation. The Moon Tide Spring is indicated just below Thornton Mt.
