Whither Canada Road?

Last week on WABI-TV there was a gentleman from the University of Maine looking along Route 201 for an old road/trail called, I believe, The Canada Road.

I would suggest to the gentleman that he check the following sources:

1) The map collection at UMO

2) The map collection at Colby College in Waterville

3) The Maine Association of Museums, 37 Community Drive, Augusta, 04330

4) Try coming at it from the Canada end and see what happens.

This is the best suggestion that I would have. It is quite possible that this road is known by Canada Road in one location and by another name in another location.
