The Daily Maine Fact from Around Maine: On February 9, 1768, William King was born in Scarborough. Best known as Maine's first governor, King was also an ardent advocate of independence from Massachusetts and an influential early supporter of what is now Colby College. King supported Colby in part to get back at Bowdoin College for his rough treatment over a financial matter by a trustee. (Source: Maine: A Narrative History, by Neil Rolde.
