The Indian tribe of the Abenaki was in the area and spent time hunting and fishing. Over time, European Americans moved to the area as a result of serving in various wars and received land grants for Standish Me Real Estate. Although settlers moved to the area, various Indian tribes attacked the settlers. Eventually, the area became stable and Standish Homes and Standish Properties become available to purchase. The town was originally named after Captain Myles Standish. For more detailed history of the area, visit www.standish.org.
