Fayette
Fayette, a town in Kennebec County, was named for the Marquis de Lafayette, the French nobleman who offered his services to the Americans during the Revolution. Settled permanently beginning in 1781, it was incorporated as a town on February 28, 1795 from the former Sterling (or Starling) Plantation.
Lafayette Corner (later Fayette Corner) was the business center of the town, lying on a well-traveled route between the Androscoggin and Kennebec rivers.
