Mechanic Falls, Androscoggin, ME
Ever since a paper mill was established on the Little Androscoggin River in 1850, the town has been part of Maine’s paper making economy.
After several previous names (Jerico, Groggy Harbor, and Bog Falls), it was renamed in 1841 to recognize all the mechanics who serviced the factories in town.
