Carrying Place Town Township (unorganized), Somerset County, ME

Township 2 Range 3 Bingham's Purchase West of the Kennebec River (T2 R3 BKP WKR)

"Benedict Arnold and his expedition trekked across the township between the Kennebec and the Dead rivers, a twelve mile journey across the Carry Ponds and through bogs in 1775.... The going was very difficult and Arnold hastily put up a “hospital” for the sick and exhausted men between East and Middle Carry Ponds. Later several units and many men were to turn back, leaving the military expedition weakened" ("Carrying Place Town TWP" at Maine: An Encyclopedia [ https://maineanencyclopedia.com/t02r03bw/ : accessed 05 September 2025]).
