War shaped the Kennebec valley history in early colonial times
Henry O Thayer recounts how wars and raids defined two centuries of Kennebec valley settlement from Robinhood’s land sale through 1749. After a peace treaty, a tribal ambush near Wiscasset sparked fear, arrests followed, and authorities restrained a potential full Indian war while courts later acquitted the ringleader, provoking tribal anger.
