Hartford
Hartford is a town in Oxford County, incorporated on June 13, 1798 from East Butterfield Plantation. After annexing land from Plantation Number 1 (1807) and Chandler's Gore (1834), its substantial size was diminished by land transfers to Canton (1838, 1839, 1850) and to Buckfield (1856, 1862).
This small but growing community is northwest of Lewiston-Auburn via Maine Routes 4 and 219. Routes 219 and 140 come together at Hartford Center.
Rock hunters have been attracted to its rich deposits of quartz and feldspar.
