Lewiston is a city in Androscoggin County in Maine, and the second-largest city in the state. The population was 41,592 at the 2010 census.
Much of Lewiston's Gold Rush past can be traced to this small patch of land by the Trinity River where B. F. Lewis and Tom Palmer planted their roots in the early-1850s, true Trinity County pioneers both.
