About Sanford, Maine
Sanford is a city of 21,982 people in York County, on the Mousam River, and the village of Springvale lies within it. In 1661 Major William Phillips, a Saco mill owner, bought the land from the Abenaki chief Fluellin, and it was first known as Phillipstown. Mrs. Phillips left it in her 1696 will to Peleg Sanford, her former husband's son, but the French and Indian Wars kept settlers away. A Massachusetts militia destroyed the Abenaki stronghold of Norridgewock in 1724, the region grew safer, and the first settlers arrived in 1739.
The town was incorporated in 1768 and named for Peleg Sanford. The Mousam River powered its industry from early on, starting with a sawmill that Capt. Market Morrison built above Springvale in 1745. After the Civil War, mills rose in both Springvale and Sanford villages, and the Portland and Rochester Railroad carried their cotton and woolen goods, carpets, shoes and lumber to market. Between 1880 and 1910 the population grew from 2,700 to more than 9,000.
- The Goodall Mills, 1867Thomas Goodall, born in Britain, sold a mill in Troy, New Hampshire, in 1865 that made woolen blankets shaped to fit horses. In 1867 he founded the Goodall Mills beside the Mousam. The factory started with carriage robes and blankets, then branched into mohair plush for railroad seats, carpets, draperies, auto fabrics, military uniform cloth and Palm Beach fabric for summer suits. Its bright, fast colors sold around the world, and some workers bought company-built houses at cost.
- Goodall Park, 1914The Goodall family built Goodall Park in 1914, a roofed stadium with 784 seats that is now home to the Sanford Mainers baseball team. The family also helped build the town's library, town hall, hospital, airport and golf club. In 1917 the people of Sanford put up a bronze statue of Thomas Goodall, which holds a place of honor in Central Park.
- The town that refused to dieIn 1954 Burlington Mills, then the largest textile company in the country, bought Sanford Mills, moved its looms South and shut it down. That left 3,600 people jobless and 2,000,000 square feet of mills empty. Local business owners traveled the Northeast to bring employers to Sanford. NBC's Armstrong Circle Theatre told the comeback story in November 1955, starring Darren McGavin and Jason Robards, and LIFE magazine featured it on August 5, 1957.
- Maine's third woman lawyerBelle Ashton Leavitt of Sanford was admitted to the bar in 1900, the third woman to join the Maine Bar Association. She practiced law in partnership with her brother-in-law, Fred J. Allen, who also served in the Maine Legislature.
