Miniature of Baxter Rare Maps
Baxter Rare Maps
The noted antiquarian, James Phinney Baxter of Portland, Maine, commissioned copies of many historical maps located in Great Britain and Europe in the late 19th century. He later donated this collection of approximately ninety maps to the State of Maine. These copies now reside among the holdings of the Maine State Archives. The term septentrion (and its various forms) refers to the northern regions. This term comes from the Latin meaning the “seven plow oxen” referring to the seven principal stars of Ursa Major (the Big Dipper), of which Polaris (the North star) is one. From that root it was generalized and used in cartography to signify the northerly direction.

Miniature of Railroad Maps and Plans
Railroad Maps and Plans
In 1858, the Maine Legislature passed a law establishing the railroad commissioners, who were responsible for overseeing railroads in the State. From the 1880s to the 1910s many railroad plans were approved by the commissioners, and those plans now reside in the Archives. In 1913, the railroad commissioners were abolished and the new Public Utilities Commission assumed responsibility for railroad regulation.
