Resettlement at Sagadahoc by Rev Henry Thayer outlook from Arrowsic
In spring 1716 Arrowsic developments prompted the Massachusetts General Court to establish Sagadahoc as a township with civil rights. The era saw George I's coronation influencing place names like Georgetown and Hanover Island. John Watts served as Justice of Peace until his death in 1717, and the Pejepscot Company, plus settlers, expanded land claims across Arrowsic and nearby shores, laying out mills, houses, and early town plots as colonization advanced.
