General Information about Thomaston

Thomaston is a town in Knox County, Maine, United States. The population was 3,748 at the 2000 census. Thomaston is an old seaport popular with tourists and noted for its antique architecture.
As early as 1630, a trading post was established on the eastern bank of the St. George River, then considered the boundary between New England and New France. In 1704, Thomas LeFebvre from Quebec bought a large tract of land along the Weskeag River on which he built a gristmill, with a house at the shoreline. In 1719-1720, the old trading post was remodeled into a stockaded fort protected by 2 blockhouses. But Abenaki Indian tribes protested the encroachment of an English fort on their territory. Instigated by the French, they attacked the garrison twice during Dummer's War in 1722, then again in 1723 with a siege lasting 30 days. In response to this and other provocations, soldiers destroyed the Abenaki stronghold of Norridgewock in 1724. Hostilities of the French and Indian Wars ceased with the 1759 Fall of Quebec.
