Crystal
Crystal is a town in Aroostook County whose organization as a plantation was legalized by the Legislature on February 21, 1878. It incorporated as a town on March 21, 1901.
Crystal Stream, the outlet of Crystal Lake, flows through the town named for the clear water of both. William Young from Searsmont was the first settler in 1839. Several others arrive in that year and shortly thereafter.
The town which lies between Patten and Island Falls on Maine Route 159, is home to the Thousand Acre Bog and Fish Stream that runs through it from Patten to Island Falls.
