Abbot
Abbot is a town in Piscataquis County, incorporated on January 31, 1827.
It was one of several tracts granted to Bowdoin College in 1794 and was named for the College's treasurer, John Abbott. (The final t in the town's name seems to have been lost over the years.)
Five generations of Abbott's managed the Amos Abbott Company Mill in nearby Dexter, according to Brunelle, p. 67.
Abraham Moore was the legendary original settler in 1805 .
