Somesville is the earliest village of the town of Mount Desert on Mount Desert Island in southeastern Maine. It is located on the north end of Somes Sound (("Acadia magic.com,") ). The village was established by Abraham Somes who was the first settler on the island ((Hartford) ). It attracted many people because of its mills and quarries (Shettleworth, & Vandenbergh, 2001). The entire village is part of the Somesville Historic District. == History == The history of Somesville dates back to Native Americans. The first Native Americans to visit the island were not permanent residents but they visited the island as far back as 4000 B.C. (("Mount desert island,") ). After the Native Americans, the first families that settled on the island were Abraham and Hannah Somes as well as James and Rachel Richardson in the year of 1761 (Shettleworth, & Vandenbergh, 2001). Somes was requested by the Massachusetts governor, Francis Bernard, to settle there and establish mills (Shettleworth, & Vandenbergh, 2001). They named their village Somesville and the inlet it was on, Somes Sound, after Abraham and his family ((Hartford) ). Somesville's history still attracts many new inhabitants today.
