Town of Corinth

Corinth is a town in Penobscot County, incorporated on June 21, 1811 from the former township T2 R4 NWP. The area, previously known as New Ohio and Ohio, was settled by Abner Tibbetts in 1794 soon to be followed by others.

Though the population is well dispersed, the village of East Corinth sits at the junctions of Maine Routes 11, 15, and 43. It has more than doubled in population since 1970, and increased 15 percent from 1990-2000.
