Kittery, York, Maine, USA



 


Notes:
About Kittery website


Kittery has the distinction of being the oldest town in the State of Maine, incorporated in 1647 -- more than a century and a quarter before the birth of the United States

English settlers first made their home in this area in 1623. The town’s name is derived from Kittery Court, the family home of early inhabitant Alexander Shapleigh in Kingswear, England. The earliest European settlers were hunters, trappers, workers of timber and men of the sea.

Kittery METhe area was previously known as the Piscataqua Plantations. For a time the southern part of Kittery was called Champernowne’s, after Capt. Francis Champernowne, another local pioneer. 

Before the arrival of Europeans this area was known to Native Americans as Amiciskeag, which in the Algonquin dialect translated roughly into “fishing point.”

Kittery originally included what are now the towns of Eliot, Berwick, North Berwick and South Berwick. It was considered part of Massachusetts Bay Colony after 1652 and over time became a key center for trading and shipbuilding.

English map of Maine and New Hampshire, c. 1670
Maine historian James Phinney Baxter commissioned the map to be copied from the original in the late 19th century. The original surveyor and creator of the map is unknown, except that the original map carries the initials 'J.S.' from its creator. The map was apparently created during the tenure of King Charles II of England's brother James as the Duke of York, which places its creation sometime around 1670. The map shows the region of the Piscataqua River. Courtesy of the Maine State Archives. Retouched by MarmadukePercy
