Appleton
Appleton is a town in Knox County, incorporated on June 28, 1829 from the former Appleton Plantation. In 1843 is annexed land from Hope to complete its boundaries which have not changed since then.
Samuel Appleton, for whom the town is named, migrated from New Hampshire to become one of the first settlers in the 1770's.
Burkettville is a small village at the crossroads of Route 105 and the Collins Hill Road in the north west corner of the town. The old Medomak Valley Grange No. 75 is located on Route 105 south of Burkettville.
The Sennebec Pond straddles Union and Appleton. This view, from Morang Corner on Route 105, is shared by the nearby Appleton Village School and the classic old barn.
Now served by Maine Routes 105 and 131, the town is northwest of Camden following Route 105.
