History
The earliest dated artifact of European origin found in Lincolnville was some fragments of a clay pipe made between 1650 and 1660, probably for trade with the native population, This therefore points to civilization by native tribes and/or early European Settlers. In the pre-European era (approx. 10,000 years ago) a glacial ice sheet once covered the entire town of Lincolnville to a depth of several thousand feet. There are irregular landforms that survive today that show that there was ice covering the surface. The first recorded permanent settlers to the Lincolnville area were Nathan and Lydia Chamberlain Knight, who in 1770 built a log cabin overlooking the stretches of Norton and Coleman Pond. Their descendants still live on that land. hi people!! The first "school" in Lincolnville was a three-sided log cabin with a perpendicular ledge for a fourth wall behind Nathan Knight's home; the ledge served to support a blackboard.
Over the years, the population continued to grow until it had been finally recognized and officially documented as a town in 1802. A recent bicentennial celebration was celebrated by the town in 2002.
