About Chelsea, Maine
Chelsea is a town of 2,778 people in Kennebec County, on the east bank of the Kennebec River. It began as part of Hallowell, and on March 1, 1851, it was incorporated as a separate town and named for Chelsea, Massachusetts. Augusta borders it on the north, and the town is known as the Gateway to the Capital.
In the north of town lies Togus, whose name comes from Worromontogus, a Native American word meaning mineral water. Horace Beals of Rockland ran a resort called Togus Springs there from 1859 to 1863. After it failed, Washington paid $250,000 for the land, and in 1866 Congress chose the site for a home for Union soldiers disabled in the war. It was the first veterans facility the United States ever established.
- Grant's visit in 1873President Ulysses S. Grant came to Togus on August 13, 1873, to review veterans who had served under him. The home kept growing, and by 1904 nearly 2,800 veterans lived there. Men who could work ran its shops and farms and grew much of its food, and weekend visitors filled the grounds for baseball games, band concerts, the opera house and the zoo.
- Maine's first Holstein herdIn 1871 the veterans home brought three Holstein cattle across from the Netherlands. They became the first registered herd of that breed anywhere in Maine.
- The Governor's House, 1869Built of brick in 1869 with a mansard roof, the Governor's House is the only building left from that first national home, and it is a National Historic Landmark. The old campus is now the Togus VA Medical Center, with Togus National Cemetery beside it, and the two joined the National Register together in 2012.
- Medal of Honor at ChancellorsvilleJohn F. Chase, born in Chelsea in 1843, was a private in the 5th Maine Battery at Chancellorsville. With nearly every officer and man of the battery killed or wounded, he and one comrade kept their gun firing and then dragged it away to safety. In 1888 that stand earned him the Medal of Honor. Once the war was over, he turned to inventing.
- A housewright's brick homeOn River Road stands the John Davis House, a brick house in the Federal style that likely dates from 1815 to 1820. Its builder was most likely John Davis, a housewright known across the region, and local historians think he put up several houses like it in the towns around Chelsea.
