Littleton
Littleton is a town in Aroostook County, incorporated on March 18, 1856 from half each of the Williams College (1800) and Framingham Academy (1801) grants.
The first settler, Thomas Osborne, was one of the conductors of the four- and six-horse freight teams that ran from Aroostook County to Bangor.
Located in potato country just north of Houlton, Littleton is split by U.S. Route 1 and borders Canada on its east.
The Littleton Esker, long ridges remnants of the ice sheets that covered the area during the glacial period, may be visible to the west of U.S. Route 1 just north of the Littletown-Houtlon town line.
