This article shows U.S. Census totals for Washington County, Maine, broken down by municipality, from 1900 to 2000.
There are two types of incorporated municipalities in Maine, towns and cities. The tables below differentiate between towns and cities.
Most areas of New England are entirely divided into incorporated municipalities, with no unincorporated territory. In the three northern New England states, however, some unincorporated territory does exist, generally in areas that are very sparsely populated. Maine contains significantly more unincorporated territory than the other states, with the bulk of it in interior and northern counties, including Washington County.
Some unincorporated territory in Maine is organized into a third type of town-level municipality unique to Maine, called a plantation (considered to be “organized”, but not incorporated), while some is entirely unorganized. Washington County also contains two Indian reservations, which are considered to be distinct entities independent from any municipality, although this has not always been the case in the past. Due to the large extent of unincorporated territory in Washington County, separate sections with detailed historical census totals for such areas follow the main tables below. For any census, adding up the totals for each town-level municipality, including any plantations, unorganized entities and Indian reservations (when recognized as independent entities), should yield the county total.
For more information on the New England municipal system, see New England town.

Unincorporated territory reported 1,757 residents. This consisted of 442 residents in organized plantations, and 1,315 residents in unorganized territory. An additional 1,316 residents lived on Indian reservations.
As of 1900, Washington County contained six plantations: Codyville, Kossuth, Grand Lake Stream, Lambert Lake, Plantation No. 14, and Plantation No.21 (the last two were in an area originally laid out as sequentially numbered townships, and had simply kept their numbers when they organized as plantations). Kossuth had been incorporated as a town for a time in the 19th century, but had disincorporated and changed to a plantation form of government prior to 1900.
Of the six plantations in existence in 1900, only two remain today, Codyville and Grand Lake Stream. Kossuth and Lambert Lake apparently dissolved during the 1920s, while No. 21 did so in 1983 and No. 14 in 1986. On the other hand, an additional plantation has been added: the former town of Baring, which organized as a plantation in 1961 (Baring had disincorporated as a town in early 1940s). Topsfield also operated as a plantation for a brief period following its disincorporation as a town in 1940; it was reported as a plantation in the 1940 Census, but surrendered its organization as a plantation the following year (1941). Some sources also suggest that Edmunds and Brookton may have briefly operated as plantations following their disincorporations as towns; if they did, their existence as plantations must have been very brief, and did not last long enough for them to be reported as such in a decennial census.

Like all of Maine's interior and northern counties, Washington County contains a significant amount of unorganized territory. Most of the unorganized territory in Washington County is in areas which have historically been very sparsely populated. The southern and southeastern parts of the county, along the coast, were historically fully incorporated. Further inland, lower-lying areas with access to lakes and rivers have generally been incorporated or organized, while more mountainous or remote areas have often never had any significant population and have remained unorganized. The area along the western edge of the county, bordering Hancock County, is largely unorganized, down to a point just a few towns away from the coast.
Historically, about two-thirds of the county’s land area was incorporated or organized, leaving the remaining one-third unorganized. There are approximately 25 townships in the county which have never been organized, along with a few others which never advanced beyond the plantation stage. Washington County saw one town disincorporation as early as 1895 (Kossuth), followed by another in 1924 (Forest City).
Between 1935 and 1945, a large number of municipalities in Maine dissolved and reverted to unorganized townships. In Washington County, this included six communities which had historically been towns (Edmunds, Marion, Topsfield, Baring, Brookton and Trescott). Since that time, Piscataquis County has both gained and lost municipalities. In the 1960s, Topsfield re-incorporated as a town, and the former town of Baring organized as a plantation. In the 1980s, two plantations dissolved (No. 14 and No. 21), and in 2004 the town of Centerville disincorporated.
The areas of Hancock County that are entirely unorganized cover about 1,000 square miles (2,600 km2), with a population of about 1,300. This covers about 40% of the county’s land area, but includes less than 4% of its population. Six unorganized townships have large enough populations to maintain a registrar and clerk to conduct elections for state and federal offices, although they do not have true organized municipal governments: Brookton, Centerville, Edmunds, No. 14, No.21 and No. 27. All except No. 27 were incorporated towns or organized plantations at one time.
Over the years, the U.S. Census Bureau has used different methods to compile data for unorganized territory in Maine. From 1900 to 1950, data was tabulated for each individual unorganized entity. In 1960, a single catch-all “Unorganized Territory” listing was provided for each Maine county, generally with no further breakdown. Since 1970, the Census has grouped contiguous areas in each county into one or more “unorganized territories”. As of the 2000 Census, two such areas are recognized within Hancock County:
North Washington Unorganized Territory: the bulk of the historically unorganized territory in the county, covering much of the northern and western parts of the county. The Territory is irregularly shaped and encompasses approximately 29 unorganized townships. This includes the former towns of Brookton, Forest City and Kossuth, as well as the former Lambert Lake Plantation and Plantation No. 21. The former town of Centerville was also added when it disincorporated in 2004.
East Central Washington Unorganized Territory: a group of six unorganized townships in the east central part of the county: the former towns of Trescott, Edmunds and Marion; the former Plantation No. 14 (also known as T14 ED); T18 ED; and T19 ED. The Territory is irregularly shaped, and completely surrounded by organized municipalities except for an ocean boundary in the former town of Trescott.
The roster of Unorganized Territories in Washington County has not changed since Unorganized Territories were first created for the 1970 Census.
The listings below provide population figures for 1) all unincorporated territory, including plantations; 2) organized plantations, for which breakouts are available in the main tables above; and 3) unorganized territory, with any available breakouts provided.

Most of the southern part of the county was originally part of Bingham’s Penobscot Purchase, which was divided into a series of sequentially numbered townships designated ND (North Division), MD (Middle Division), SD (South Division) and ED (East Division). This numbering scheme also covered a significant portion of Hancock County, and extended into southern Penobscot County as well. Many of the remaining unorganized townships in Washington County are in the MD or ED sequences. The MD townships, which can be found in the southwestern part of the county, are numbered row-by-row south to north, then west to east within each row. For example, T18 MD is to the north of the town of Columbia; T30 MD is further north; and T42 MD even further directly north. The ED townships, further to the east, are numbered column-by-column east to west, then south to north within each column. The former plantations No. 14 and No. 21 were in the ED sequence. There are also two ND townships in Hancock County, to the north of the MD area (T5 ND and T6 ND). Most of the unorganized townships in these sequences are identified only by their survey numbers and have never developed informal township names.
To the northeast of the territory that was originally surveyed as part of Bingham’s Penobscot Purchase, a handful of townships were originally surveyed as part of Titcomb’s Survey (TS). A few of these remain unorganized, including T1R1 (also known as Fowler Twp.), T1R2 (also known as Dyer Twp.), and T1R3 (also known as Lambert Lake Twp.).
The area to the northwest of the territory that was originally surveyed as part of Bingham’s Penobscot Purchase, as well as the last few rows of townships at the northern edge of the county, were originally part of the NBPP (North of Bingham’s Penobscot Purchase) grid. This grid also extends into Penobscot County. The numbering of these townships is somewhat irregular, but all of the unorganized townships on this grid in Washington County are in rows 6 through 11 (numbered west to east) and in rows 1 through 4 (numbered south to north).
Maine contains three federally recognized Indian reservations. Two of these are in Washington County, both under the jurisdiction of the Passamaquoddy tribe. These are the Passamaquoddy Indian Township Reservation and the Passamaquoddy Pleasant Point Reservation. Maine currently treats Indian reservations as distinct entities, not part of any organized municipality or unorganized entity. This has not always been the case in the past; at one time, present-day reservation land was regarded as part of the municipalities or unorganized entities within which it is geographically located.
The Pleasant Point Reservation, the smaller of the two reservations, is an enclave in the town of Perry, with a short border with the city of Eastport. It covers less than half of a square mile. The larger Indian Township Reservation occupies an entire survey township, bordered by Grand Lake Stream Plantation and the towns of Waite and Princeton, along Grand Falls Lake. It has a land area of about 37 square miles (96 km2).
Treatment of the reservations by the State of Maine, and by the Census Bureau, has varied over time. The Passamaquoddy Pleasant Point Reservation was first recognized in the 1940 Census, where it was referred to simply as the “Passamaquoddy Indian Reservation”. The Census began referring to it by its present name in 1970. Prior to 1940, the population of the present-day reservation appears to have been included with the town of Perry.
Passamaquoddy Indian Township Reservation was first recognized by the Census under that name in 1970. Because it covers an area originally considered to be an entire survey township, however, its population can be tracked for all censuses from 1900 to 1950, though it was being treated as an unorganized township at the time, not as an Indian reservation (it was usually referred to in Census listings as “Indian Township” or “Indiantown Township”). See the “Unorganized Territory” section for population totals. In 1960, a separate breakout for Indian Township was not provided, as the Census had discontinued the practice of publishing totals for each individual unorganized township.
