Q U E S T I O N S:
Suggest that being a
part of the Historical Society of Weathersfield, Vermont can offer you more
information and add to your people's profile of history research, such as the
work they were involved with, hardships of living in this town, working as a
farmer, or hand to the farmer, caretaker and so forth, worked at keeping the
roads clear and graded, worked for the town and other such things, such as
teacher.
Where did they live within the township? How far did the kids have to
walk to go to school, IN THE SNOW? Weather Conditions of the town, year
of the big snows? Live stock handlers for the sheep? Sheep industry itself,
Lumber Mills, Grist Mills, Apple industry, Cider Mills, and Maple sugar
industry. What kind of Mill was located at Perkinsville? How many people were
hired to work at that location? Where were the wool bens and where did the
clippers do their work? Who was employed at the Government control Dam in the
Valley? Who cut all that grass in that bottom land? What other projects and were
being done within the town?
M I L I T A R Y: Who were the men in
Weathersfield and what Military Units were at Weathersfield, Vermont who are
not buried here? What kind of Military Units were they? Light Infantry or
Cannons? What did the weapons look like? What were the weapons? Who of them
joined Ira Allen Reg., Green mountain Eastern Confluence to guard against the
British on Vermont’s boundary’s against the British movements. Who joined Ethan
Allen Green mountain Boys Western confluence against the British movements?
What is a Militia or what was raised in 1775 from Weathersfield, Vermont to
fight against the British and who were the leaders, Captains, Lt, Sgt, etc.
from Weathersfield, Vermont. These Units need to be put together to help these
people asking about their kin. What did their uniforms look like?
C E M E T E R Y: Now if this is of interest to you than I also say as a suggestion that
the Historical Society look at all these kinds of questions and prepare to
answers them if those people want to join the Weathersfield, Historical
Society.? What kind of condition are the
C E M E T E R Y stones in? Do you want to get donations for repair work or fixed them
up in any way? Please tell the Historical Society People about this.
C o m m e n t s: Rules of Cemeteries are to be observed with reverence, when visiting in
these cemeteries. Do not take rubbings, or any other method to get the
information off the stones, even the acid from your hands, is destructive to
the stones. In time it will destroy the surface of the stone where it, in time
will not be readable. The best way to obtain data from the stone, is to
purchase a camera at the store and take pictures close up. So that you have and
can preserve the data from off the stones. Contact proper authorities for
Services and Flag, placements.
Note:
In cemeteries it is reasonable to have visitor
registration booths, placements where the outside visitors may leave, comments,
as to who they are looking for, and contact as to how they can be reached. For
other means it is reasonable to contact the Historian for the town and or
County, should one be assigned. Other means is the Federal snail Mail contact
as shown. Another contact is the computer E-Mail and last is the phone contact
should one be assigned, from the township.
