Androscoggin

The Androscoggin flows south past Jay and Livermore Falls, where its descending waters have long shaped the river valley. The Anasagunticook Abenaki lived in this country before English settlement. Around 1791 Elijah Livermore built mills near the falls, taking advantage of the streams that descend toward the Androscoggin. The river continues past Lewiston and Brunswick to meet the Kennebec at Merrymeeting Bay.
