Flagstaff Lake used to be smaller until the Long Falls Dam was built on the Dead River in 1956, diverting it's flow into the Keenebec River, which enlarging the lake and turning it into a reservoir used for hydroelectric production. This submerged or partially submerged four towns- Flagstaff, Bigelow, Dead River and Carrying Place. These towns were all abandoned and dismantled before they were flooded; contrary to legend there are no buildings under the surface.
