Paula McLain Harvard, our talented archivist, has been researching deeds from the early days of Bremen and compiling a history of land transfers within the town beginning in the 1650s until 1820.
We are fortunate to have so many neighboring associations to partner with, all dedicated to preserving and promoting the history of Lincoln County, Maine.

The Cora F. Cressey was a five-masted schooner built in Bath, Maine, in 1902, primarily used for coastal coal transport before becoming a Prohibition-era floating nightclub called Levaggi's Showboat. After the nightclub era, she was brought to Bremen, Maine, in 1938 by lobster dealer Bernard "Bunny" Zahn to serve as a lobster pound, but this failed due to the strong hull. She was then used as a breakwater and remains as a hulk in the Keene Narrows in Bremen, where her remains are partially visible above water and listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
