Oak Hill (pop.place): Eastern Maine Conference Seminary, Oak Hill, Bucksport, Hancock County, ME

"Bucksport Seminary is among the oldest coeducational preparatory schools in New England. The first class opened in Wilson Hall in 1851 with twenty-seven students- thirteen boys and fourteen girls. "From this modest beginning the number of students increased rapidly, and in 1854 a new building was added to serve as a dormitory. This new building was named Chase Hall in honor of Alden F. Chase, noted leader and educator, who then became president of the seminary."The school continued to grow, and in 1912 Oak Hall was added to the group. Oak Hall was destroyed by fire in April, 1923. With indomitable New England spirit, the trustees raised additional funds, and the very next year Morris Hall, an attractive modern building, stood upon the site of Oak Hall...."Bucksport Seminary is situated on a hilltop. On the left, you see Morris Hall, the administration building; next is Chase Hall, the boys' dormitory; and on the extreme right you can just see the cupola of Wilson Hall."
