Vermont History, Town Histories, Church Histories, Vital Records and Genealogies
| Vermont Beautiful $13.00 Wallace Nutting NY: Bonanza Books 1972, reprint of 1922 edition (from the end flaps) This magnificent text is the first in a series of picture books by Wallace Nutting. VERMONT BEAUTIFUL set the pattern for all those to follow, and though it was the first, it is still one of the most beautiful. Nutting, who wrote the text, as well as taking the photographs and compiling the book, has made an effort to avoid the usual guidebook format. Instead, he has relied on his own sense of beauty to aim his camera. Nutting said, “no consideration of any sort except matters of quaintness, beauty, or history has weighed with the author in selections of pictures or the references in the text.” The book, divided into chapters such as “Old New England Homes,” “Sunday in the Country,” and “Wild Flowers in Vermont,” does indeed capture the true feeling of Vermont and America. Though the last of the pictures were taken in 1922, many of the photographs catch a glimpse of eras even before that. The interiors of historic houses, children in a horse-drawn cart, a timeless country road are all here, their charm as fresh as today. 302 pages, 6×9 hardbound, good condition, dust jacket has some small areas of wrinkling and shelf wear top and bottom Vermont in the World War 1917-1919 $50.00 Editors: John T.

Genealogical and Family History of the State of Vermont (Volume 1 only) $25.00 (in print at $75.00) Compiled under the Editorial Supervision of the Honorable Hiram Carleton Baltimore: Clearfield Publishing, 2000 reprint of the 1903 edition. Hiram Carleton, a prominent Vermont judge and six-time president of the Vermont Historical Society, was commissioned by the Lewis Publishing Company to prepare this magisterial collection of illustrated biographical/genealogical essays of noted Vermonters and their families. Without gainsaying Mr. Carleton’s prodigious undertaking, it is helpful to point out that the arrangement and contents of the two volumes, originally published in 1903, follows a pattern for which the Lewis Publishing Company would become famous over the first quarter of this century. At the outset of the first volume we are provided with an Introduction explaining Vermont’s unique place among the states and drawing attention to milestones in its history. Then commence the sketches, most of which focus on a contemporary of the compiler. In some cases, the essays offer a derivation or origin for the surname of that essay. In all cases, the family history is traced forward from the oldest known ancestor of the line to the family member (living or memorialized) featured in the sketch, for whom, in turn, a biography–often with photograph–is provided. This is followed, frequently, by additional, collateral lines linked to the subject of the essay. Many of the lineages go back to 16th-century England, still others brim with connections to Massachusetts and the other New England states, yet on the whole they constitute a totally unique assemblage of Vermont families. Finally, while the work as a whole contains upwards of 30,000 references to kith and kin, the name indexes found at the front of the two volumes identify nearly 1,200 principal descendants of the following main families treated: Index to Volume 1: Abernathy, Abernethy, Adams, Agan, Akeley, Alexander, Allen, Archibald, Arkley, Arthur, Atkins, Auld, Averill, Backus, Bailey, Baldwin, Bancroft, Barber, Barclay, Barden, Barney, Barrows, Barry, Barstow, Bartlett, Batchelder, Beach, Beckett, Benedict, Benjamin, Berry, Bickford, Bigelow, Bingham, Bisbee, Bixby, Blackmer, Blodgett, Boardman, Booth, Bottum, Bouton, Boutwell, Bowles, Boyce, Boyd, Bradley, Braisted, Bridgeman, Briggs, Bristol, Brooks, Brown, Bryant, Buck, Buckham, Bullard, Bullock, Burbank, Burdett, Burdick, Burgess, Burt, Bushnell, Buswell, Byington, Cabot, Cain, Cainfield, Cannon, Carleton, Carney, Carter, Chamberlin, Chapin, Chapman, Chase, Childs, Chittenden, Clark, Clarke, Clemons, Cochran, Cole, Collins, Colton, Colvin, Conant, Converse, Covell, Cowles, Crandall, Crane, Cristy, Crosby, Cross, Crowell, Cummins, Currier, Cushman, Cutler, Daggett, Darling, Davenport, Davis, Dean, Denny, Derby, Dewey, Dillingham, Dodge, Doud, Drake, Drew, Drysdale, DuBois, Dubuc, Dumas, Dunnett, Dustin, Dwinell, Dyer, Eastman, Eaton, Edmunds, Egerton, Eldridge, Ellis, Emerson, Englesby, Estey, Fairbanks, Farnham, Farrington, Fay, Ferguson, Ferrin, Field, Fillmore, Fiske, Fleetwood, Foote, Forbush, Foss, Foster, Fowler, Francisco, Fuller, Fullerton, Gates, Gay, Gee, Gill, Gillette, Gilmore, Gleason, Gleed, Godfrey, Goodell, Goodenough, Goodhue, Goodrich, Gordon, Gove, Grant, Graves, Greene, Greenleaf, Grout, Hall, Hamlen, Hanks, Hartness, Haselton, Haskins, Hatch, Hathorn, Hays, Heath, Heaton, Henry, Hickok, Hicks, Hill, Hoit, Holbrook, Holden, Holton, Hooker, Hopkins, Horsford, Houghton, Howard, Howden, Howe, Howland, Hubbell, Huling, Humphrey, Hungerford, Hunt, Huntington, Huntley, Huse, Imlah, Irish, Jackson, James, Jenne, Johnson, Johonnot, Jones, Joyce, Kellogg, Kelton, Kemp, Kenyon, Keyes, King, Kingsley, Knight, Laird, Lamson, Landon, Larrabee, Lasher, Lathrop, Lawrence, Leland, Linsley, Livingston, Luce, Lyman, Mansur, Marr, Marshall, Martin, Mason, Mattison, McGee, Meacham, Merriam, Michaud, Miller, Miner, Moody, Morrill, Morse, Moseley, Moulton, Murray, Nelson, Nichols, Noble, North, Noyes, Nutting, Ormsbee, Packard, Page, Parish, Parker, Parmenter, Parsons, Partch, Pearl, Peck, Peckett, Perrin, Perry, Pettee, Phelps, Pierson, Pike, Pilon, Pingree, Pirie, Place, Plumley, Porter, Potter, Powell, Powers, Pratt, Proctor, Puffer, Putnam, Racette, Randall, Ranny, Ray, Read, Redfield, Reeves, Richardson, Roberts, Robinson, Roby, Rogers, Root, Roscoe, Ross, Russel, Sawyer, Seaver, Shackett, Shepard, Sherridan, Sibley, Slocum, Small, Smith, Sneden, Sparhawk, Spaulding, Sprague, Squire, Stannard, Starr, Start, Stevens, Stewart, Stone, St. Peters, Stranahan, Taggart, Talcott, Taylor, Thayer, Thomas, Thompson, Thomson, Tiffany, Tinker, Tinkham, Torrey, Trull, Twitchell, Tyler, Van Patten, Varney, Vilas, Viles, Walbridge, Wales, Walker, Wallace, Warren, Watson, Webster, Weeks, Welling, Wells, Weston, Whitcomb, Wicker, Wilbur, Wilcox, Willard, Williams, Wilson, Winch, Wing, Wood, Woodbury, Woolson, Worthington, Wright, Wyman, Yale. 720 pages, 6 x 9 softbound, good condition, a few marks on covers.

Lewis Creek Lost and Found, Vermont $12.00 Kevin Dann Middlebury College Press, 2001 This is an uncorrected proof copy. (from the back cover) “Well known for his imaginative treatment of environmental issues, Kevin Dann presents a natural history of the Lewis Creek watershed in Vermont’s Champlain Valley, told largely through the lives and thought of three individuals whose investigations brought them into close contact with the area. Congregationalist minister John Perry (1825—72) conducted paleontological research on the region’s Paleozoic rock and attempted to negotiate his era’s confrontation between science and religion. Rowland Robinson (1833—1900) was a Quaker farmer and author/artist whose historical fiction often dealt with issues of human impact on this watershed. The first plant-hunting expeditions of noted plant collector Cyrus Pringle (1838—1911) also took place in this area. Dann’s account of these three men, whose lives span nearly a century, graphically illustrates contemporary human-nature relationships at the same time that it suggests the limits of science in circumscribing our experience of the physical landscape. 217 pages, 6×9 softbound, very good condition.

Hard, Jr. & Janet C. Greene, Illustrated by Jane Clark Brown Montpelier: Vermont Life Magazine 1970 (from the end flaps) FROM DEEP WITHIN THE GREEN MOUNTAINS THIRTEEN INCREDIBLE TALES OF MYSTERY, CRIMINALITY, HARDSHIP AND HUMOR For years gentleman burglar Clarence Adams terrorized his native Chester until a set gun trapped him at Waterman’s Mill. Residents could hardly believe it, but Adams’s story doesn’t stop there. Did he, as many think, escape his cell and wintery grave? At Manchester’s jail back in 1819 Stephen Boorn finally confessed he killed Russell Colvin. The hangman’s noose was ready as Colvin suddenly reappeared. But was it really Colvin who came back? The public burning of a vampire’s heart on Woodstock Green seems incredible now. But prominent citizens were there that day some 150 years ago and attested to the gruesome ceremony. What irony for a famous British, counterfeiter. Yet it was in rural Groton, Vt. that Bristol Bill’s clever “bank” was broken. A knife in the state’s attorney’s back didn’t help Bill’s cause. Mysterious Spaniards finding (and then losing) great hoards of silver among the hills, kept Vermonters hunting treasure for years. Some think it’s still there. War Hero William Barton’s pioneering in northern Vermont led to his jailing for debt at Danville. Stubbornly he refused to settle and the Marquis de Lafayette bailed him out fourteen years later. To die in poverty in the third generation was old Mercie Dale’s dying curse on the high-stepping Hayden family of Albany, Vermont. The handsome Mansion still stands but the last of the Haydens perished in 1927. Vermonters still shiver thinking about Eighteen-Hundred-and-FROZE-to-Death, the year with no summer, when it snowed and froze every month, crops failed and famine drove folks Westward. How did a shipwrecked British mariner ever come to northern Vermont in 1564, there to perish in the wilderness? Was the pitiful message found many years later in a lead tube, just a hoax? You wear five sets of overalls, one over the other. You devote your life to outlawing autos. You never touch anything that a woman had. Not favoring leather, you walk barefoot to Washington, and back. You are just an eccentric Vermonter showing your individualism. In the remote Vermont hills old folk who could no longer earn their keep were dragged and frozen for the Winter. In the Spring they were thawed out (feeling mightily refreshed). Was it really true? Prohibition of demon rum caused some odd happenings in Vermont, none more bizarre than the 79-year jail sentence and heavy fine meted out to honest John O’Neil. His tremendous punishment was affirmed, and Vermonters were sustained in sobriety. Widow Hannah Ward stood stark naked when she was married in Newfane in 1789. It was for good legal reasons, and Mrs. Ward managed to retain her modesty as well as her inheritance. 174 pages, hardbound, good condition, dust jacket, 1 2-1/2 inch tear on dust jacket spine and some creases on the top Lake Chaplain: Reflections on our Past $13.00 Edited by Jean E.

Davis Barre Vermont The author, 2001 (from the inside front cover) “Out From Depot Square,” takes the reader back to mid-century Vermont. Author Tom Davis writes about the people and events that shaped his small Barre, Vermont community in the 1930s and 1940s. He recreates the time when people gathered on the corner of Depot Square to fiercely debate the politics of the day. He recalls the first radio news report of the bombing of Pearl Harbor. He helps us relive the aftermath of the war, and the excitement Barre’s returning veterans brought to the city. Davis remembers: a presidential motorcade through Barre, skiing at Meadowbrook, Industrial League baseball, the magic of movies before television, Main Street on Saturday night, his neighborhood, the political struggle to build the Barre Auditorium, pond dances, and dancing under the crystal ball at the Auditorium. He concludes with “Return to Wildersburg,” a short story about his hometown. Davis breathes life into memories of that special time. 114 pages, softbound, good condition.

Brattleboro A Peasant of West Brattleboro $9.00David ChaseBrattleboro: Elm Corners Press, 1987 Funny stories from Brattleboro Vermont . (from the introduction) “For the benefit of anyone who doesn’t already know, the stuff that follows originally appeared in my weekly column in the Brattleboro Reformer, first during about 15 months in 1976 and 1977 and then from January of 1982. Most of it speaks for itself, but there are a few pieces that had some introductory material when they were originally published. I’ve taken that out and scattered the remains throughout the book The essay-type columns are listed in the Table of Contents. The rest has been stuck in wherever it fits. There is Dear David, for instance. For some reason, a lot of people are under the impression that people who write know everything and readers are free to write for advice. A large part of journalism’s public trust requires that we answer such questions as time permits. I’m fortunate in that I have been allowed to answer my mail in my column from time to time. It’s no big deal. It’s the least I can do. It’s the least any of us can do. After all, it’s part of the public trust. There are community learning opportunities sprinkled through the book. Some people, not anyone who lives around here, certainly, but some people, believe there is nothing going on in small towns after dark. This is nonsense. Small communities often arrange classes in subjects of interest to any number of people. This is a wonderful thing. People in the community with special knowledge or skills agree to share what they know with others who believe that classes will teach them everything. Yes, poetry lovers, I have included some poems. Pity, really. Contrary to Brattleboro’s small town image, there are, in fact, routine and continuous business promotions (Promotions in the News), a lively and full schedule of cultural events (The Entertainment Page), and a thriving and innovative artistic community (Local Artists). And finally, there are some quotes. I’ve always thought it was a shame that only famous people get quoted in print. These quotes are all from real, and, until now, relatively unfamous people. So much for the Introduction. If you didn’t like the columns, you’re really gonna hate the book.” 174 pages, 6×9 softbound, good condition.
