Dover-Foxcroft
Dover-Foxcroft, a town and the county seat of Piscataquis County, was born of the union of Dover and Foxcroft on March 1, 1922. Foxcroft was incorporated on February 29, 1812 from township T5 R7 NWP. Nearby Dover followed suit on January 19, 1822 from T3 R6 NWP.
Though once separated by it, the Piscataquis River now runs through the joined towns.
Dover-Foxcroft is the birth place of Lillian M. N. Stevens, (1844-1914) who helped found the Women's Christian Temperance Union and served as its president.
The town lies 35 miles north of Bangor on Maine Route 15.
