Town of Stockton Springs

Stockton Springs is a coastal town about ten miles north of Belfast.  It was first settled about 1759 when Fort Pownall was completed there on Fort Point.  The fort's purpose was to guard the Penobscot River during the French and Indian War.   It was later burned by the British.  The town was first incorporated in 1794 as part of Prospect, but it was set off and re-incorporated as a separate town in 1857.  It was then named Stockton after Stockton-on-Tees, a market town in County Durham in northern England.  In 1889, when the community anticipated establishing a business in bottling spring water the name was changed to Stockton Springs.  The discovery of sediment in the water scuttled the bottling business, but the name remained.  In 2010, the population of Stockton Springs was 1,592.

The Belfast Free Library holds Stockton Springs town reports from 1872 to 1885 and from 1975 to 1982.  These reports contain deaths from 1952 to 1982.
