Andover, — Parish est. 1833; settled originally along the St. John by native 

 settlers from the Lower St. John and by a disbanded British regiment. 

 Andover village was first settled about 1816 by two brothers named 

 Murphy, from Ireland, and in 1817 the Kent regiment was settled along 

 the river from River de Chute to the Aroostook, excepting, perhaps, a 

 French location. Later the village (at first called Tobique Settlement) 

 with accessions from Maugerville and other parts of the lower St. John, 

 became the centre of lumbering operations for the Aroostook and 

 Tobique and grew prosperously, reaching its culmination between 1840 

 and 1870; it became the shire town of Victoria in 1876. The back 

 settlements are later expansions from the river settlements. (Ms.
