Sebec is a town in Piscataquis County, incorporated on February 28, 1812 from the township T4 R7 NWP. It ceded land to Plantation T3 R6 in 1818 and to Bowerbank in 1927.
The origin of the name is the same as that of Sebago and reflects the idea of a great lake. Sebec village lies at the eastern most end of Sebec Lake.
Located between Dover-Foxcroft to the west and Milo to the east, the town is connected to both by Maine combined Route 6 and 16, and by the Piscataquis River.
