The town was named for Deacon Elijah Livermore (March 4, 1730-August 5, 1808), a pioneer settler born in Waltham, Mass. The first two settlers of Livermore are known to be Deacon Elijah Livermore and Major Thomas Fish. The area was once part of the Abenaki Indian territory called Rockemeka, meaning “great corn place.” It was settled in 1786, then incorporated in 1795. The county line, determined by the Androscoggin River, divided the town. West of the river was Oxford County, and east was Kennebec County. Consequently, East Livermore was set off and incorporated on March 1, 1844. It became part of Androscoggin County on March 31, 1854. On March 15, 1929, East Livermore was renamed Livermore Falls.
