Harmony

Settled in 1796, population expanded rapidly after 1800. A Methodist Society was organized in 1826 and the first church was built in 1842. A variety of mills (grist, saw, carding, etc.) emerged as did a tannery, a hatters, and a shoemaker shop.
Located at the junction of Maine Routes 150 and 154, Harmony has substantial frontage on Great Moose Lake and the Sebasticook River which flows into it frm Mainstream Pond.
