Calais, ME Real Estate

Calais is a city in the state of Maine in the United States on the St. Croix River on the border with St. Stephen, New Brunswick, Canada. It is in Washington County, Maine, United States. The population was 3,447 at the 2000 census. Its name is pronounced as callous, not the French-style cal-ayy listen   ( help · info ).

The river and its area were first explored by Samuel de Champlain when he and his men spent a winter there on St. Croix Island in 1604. However, the first permanent settlers did not arrive until 1770.

On June 27, 1789, the Massachusetts General Court sold the township to Waterman Thomas for 19 an acre. On June 16, 1809, the area was incorporated as a town. The city was given the name Calais after its ancient counterpart in France in honor of France's very significant contribution to American independence during the American Revolution. The State of Maine granted a City Charter on August 24, 1850.

On July 18, 1864, Confederate agents crossed the border from New Brunswick, Canada, and robbed a bank in Calais. [1]
