The hamlet of Gorham started as a public house erected by Thomas Haistead in the early 19th century. Flint Creek was used to power a grist mill and Craft's saw mill, which was erected in 1808. Gorham soon grew to include a general store, a drug store, a hardware store and a hotel. Most of the business buildings were destroyed by a fire in 1868, however, they were soon replaced.^[2]
