Madison, Somerset, ME
Named for President James Madison, it was surveyed in 1791 and permanent white settlers arrived at least by 1775. In that year Benedict Arnold’s Expedition camped for a week at Norridgewock Falls that spanned the Kennebec River across to Anson. The falls provided the base for the dam between the two villages.
