About Fairfield, Maine
Fairfield is a town of 6,484 people in Somerset County, on the Kennebec River just north of Waterville. The land was home to the Canibas, a band of the Abenaki, whose Taconnet village sat downriver at the mouth of the Sebasticook in today's Winslow. Taconnet was burned in 1692, during King William's War, and the Canibas abandoned the area. Once the French and Indian Wars ended in 1763, English settlers could move in, and in 1774 they began farming Fairfield Plantation, named for its fair aspect.
Benedict Arnold's soldiers stopped here in 1775 to rest and pick up supplies on their way up the Kennebec toward the Battle of Quebec, and a stone marker where Main Street meets Route 201 recalls their camp. After the Revolution the plantation farmed hay, grain and potatoes, and its cattle were praised for both their numbers and their quality. The plantation became the town of Fairfield on June 18, 1788, counted 492 people in 1790, and raised 11,531 bushels of wheat in 1837.
- Falls that dropped 34 feetThe Kennebec falls 34 feet at Fairfield, and that water power turned it into a mill town. It ran eight sawmills, three planing mills, a gristmill, a plaster mill, a corn cannery, three carriage factories, a sled factory and a coffin factory, along with a marble works and a tannery. The biggest employers were the textile plants: Kendall's Mills at the southeast edge of town, which gave the village its early name, and Somerset Mills about two miles upriver.
- Two meetings until 1929For about 75 years the village had its own corporation. After the town meeting handled business for all of Fairfield, a second meeting took up the village's police, fire department and public works. Residents of Shawmut, Fairfield Center and Hinckley didn't receive those services, so they weren't taxed for them. The arrangement ended in 1929.
- Mercury on the rooftopAmos F. Gerald, builder of Maine's first electric trolley system, had architect William Robinson Miller design a Main Street hotel in 1899 and 1900. The four-story brick and terracotta Gerald Hotel, in the Renaissance Revival style, was crowned by a statue of the swift Roman god Mercury. It took guests until 1937 and reopened in 2015 as senior apartments. Miller also designed Lawrence High School and the Lawrence Library, dedicated on July 25, 1901.
- A home for children in 1889The Reverend George W. Hinckley founded the Good Will Home in 1889 on a 125-acre farm in Fairfield's northeast corner, where children in need found a home and a school. When he died in 1950, the place covered 3,000 acres with 45 buildings and had helped more than 3,000 young people. Its L. C. Bates Museum, in a 1903 school building, holds 32 dioramas of Maine habitats whose backdrops Impressionist Charles Daniel Hubbard painted in the 1920s.
- A chapel for Fairfield CenterSettlers reached the Ten Lots neighborhood at Fairfield Center in 1774. As a boy, Milton LaForest Williams lived there with his grandfather, Asa Bates. In 1916 he began the Asa Bates Memorial Chapel, a brick building with a temple front. He finished it two years later and gave it to the community to use as a church and a meeting hall.
