Hello Friends of the Road,
We have an early outing this year, and it has snuck up on me. It is a good thing I didn’t plan anything for Sunday, because I was hoping to attend this when the schedule was finalized. It will give me a chance to visit markers I have never been to! I have not been in that area since our Annual Meeting at the Fort @ no. 4 last fall. For those that are interested, here’s a video of our featured presentation during that meeting: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QPa5-FWUDog
I feel a bit distracted right now as I’m watching the Celtics game. I’m being torn in three directions. One is the past (CPR discussion), the present (Celtics), and the future (Sunday’s outing). I wonder if I’ll be haunted in my dreams tonight by three ghosts. I hope you’re all doing well and the sounds and smells of Spring have brightened your spirits. The smell of cut grass has returned to my neighborhood.
Back in February, I shared an excerpt of a diary by David Holden. As you know, diaries and journals are a great way to experience the past. I wasn’t holding out on you when I shared that part, as I didn’t have the complete journal. Shortly after that, Mike Barbieri, one of our prized, unofficial historians, shared with me the complete journal. You can read it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QPa5-FWUDog
Sunday’s event will kick off at 1pm, rain or shine. Parts of it will be outside, so hopefully it won’t be rain! Here is the complete write-up: May 5: Sunday at 1 PM we will meet at Charlestown Historical Society’s “Bakery Building’” 216 South Main Street, Charlestown NH — a stone’s throw from the location of the original Fort at No. 4, where the Crown Point Road began. We will start with a car tour of markers and historic sites along its route through Charlestown, narrated by knowledgeable CHS members. Those interested can then hike a trail to NH Marker 7, to observe where Wentworth’s Ferry crossed the Connecticut River to the blockhouse built by Goffe’s troops to guard it in 1760. For more info, contact Barry at (802) 492-3573 or bgriffithvt@gmail.com
In case you are watching the game now, I’ll let you get back to that now. Take care, and hopefully see you soon.
Hello Friends of the Road,
Hopefully none of you are traveling here in the Northeast today. It is late in the season, but I’m excited to see the snow fall. I’m glad it is a day off so I can enjoy it and clean it up at my convenience. The kids are deprived of a snow day, but they also have been deprived of playing in the snow much this season, so they should be happy anyway. And for those kids who don’t like to play in the snow, they have their game consoles and history books!
I have received the beloved magnet calendars for 2024. As soon as we finalize the rest of the content for the mailing, the elves will begin their work. The year’s schedule has good diversity in it and everyone should find something of interest I hope. If any of you do not receive the annual mailing and want to be included, provide me with your mailing address. We only mail to those who have paid for a membership recently, so if you have not, we do ask that you have intensions to contribute to our organization this year. Memberships start at only $5 per year. I can’t remember who it was, but one member said we should raise our dues as they aren’t even enough to buy a good beer.
I’d like to enlist you all for a mission. It won’t involve any bloodshed, I hope. The President of the Clarendon Historical Society, Bob Underhill, is looking for information about a possible settlement in the vicinity of Clarendon, in 1760 or 1761. Attached is a great historical document about Daniel Walker (1706 – ), who stayed over the winter in 1760 or 1761 on his way back from Canada. It sounds like the company was following the Crown Point Road and that he couldn’t complete the journey until the spring. He did come back to what is now Clarendon in 1768 just like the story says, and his son Daniel Jr. (1736 – 1795) was one of our Tories who fled to Canada and had his property confiscated. The article was written by a Dr. H.C. Burleigh for the Lennox & Addington Historical Society (Ontario) which regretfully closed last autumn. Their archives would have been passed on to other organizations but it might take a bit to find where this article went. Bob is totally unaware of any settlement prior to 1768, and he knows Clarendon history really well! So your mission, if you choose to accept it, is to offer information or theories about where Daniel Walker may have stayed that winter on his return from Canada.
I have info about an historical gathering you might be interested in. The CPRA is not involved with this, but am certainly interested in it as there’s a possible connection to the CPR in Pittsford. Phil Mandalere, who is deeply involved with the Clarendon Historical Society and a few of you may remember the CPRA outing he led recently at the former Dean Farm in Brandon, will be presenting information about the Stevens cellar hole and the White’s Crossing area. It will be a presentation as part of a meeting of the Pittsford Historical Society. The meeting will be downstairs at the Pittsford Congregational Church on April 7th. Potluck meal at 5:30 followed by a brief PHS meeting, then Phil’s presentation. I hope to see a few of you there.
That is all I have for you at the moment. Writing this newsletter has given me a break from shoveling and with daylight running low, I better get back to my work.
Hello Friends of the Road,
For those who don’t know me, allow me to introduce myself. My name is Dale Christie and I’ve been recently elected to another term as the Secretary of the Crown Point Road Association. I have enjoyed getting to know many of you and the pursuit of uncovering history has been quite the journey. I have been spending much of the Winter researching the local history of Proctor and other areas of Vermont, but now it is time to shift gears and focus on Vermont’s unofficial road, the Crown Point Road.
I hope you all are doing well and the colder months of this part of the world haven’t broken you. I know seasonal depression is a real thing. Personally, I don’t mind Winter as long as there’s snow and it isn’t too cold. I’ve had half of my desires come true. A benefit of the lack of cold and deep snow is the ability to get out and explore the woods. The folks preparing for the upcoming sugaring season have had it easier too. Those looking for evidence of the past have also had it easier. The ground hasn’t been frozen as much as usual and I find that you can see the geography so much better in these conditions. Not only do you have the lack of leaves blocking your view, a dusting of snow really helps you see old roads and terrain. There is still plenty of time left for you to get some fresh air and take a slow walk through the woods and let your imagination fill your mind.
The CPRA board has had 3 meetings already this “off-season” and final details are being put together for another fun year of historical gatherings. The economy and other factors have led us to pass over any plans for a bus trip this year, but we are going to lead a day trip out of state. We are also planning on making small changes to our bylaws. Some of them are greatly outdated and need to be modernized. We will be sharing more information about this in the future as we are required to hold an official vote at a meeting open to the members and give proper notice to do so. Don’t worry, we still won’t share your contact info and will not be selling advertising space along the old roadway!
Attached is a transcription of an old journal from 1760, written by David Holden during travel on the CPR. It is another glimpse of life in that era, and the conditions of the old road. I was made aware of this by John-Eric Nelson, history wizard.
For those shopping for historical books, the online shop of the Vermont Historical Society offers a great selection of content. My only complaint is the lack of a search function. You may even find a familiar looking book about historical markers: https://vermont-historical-society-museum.square.site/product/historical-markers-on-the-crown-point-road/1084?cp=true&sa=false&sbp=false&q=false&category_id=8
The Annual Meeting we had last October included a presentation by an enthusiastic member of the CPRA by the name of John-Eric Nelson. Video was recorded of his presentation, along with our business meeting. I feel bad about not sharing these earlier. I could say I’ve been hibernating like a bear, but as I wrote above, I’ve been busy and still have a day job, so no rest for me! Here is a link to our Business meeting: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D4Kq6zOPzQA and a link to John-Eric’s presentation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QPa5-FWUDog
I’ve rambled on long enough and given you some good reading and viewing content. I consider my duties served. You will be hearing more from me in the near future as we have news about our upcoming calendar of outings. Despite what the groundhog says, Spring will arrive on March 19th. Until then, make a snowman or have sugar on snow, or whatever you enjoy about Winter.
Cheers!
How is everyone’s love for history? Alive and strong I hope. With depressing news flooding the airways, I think history is getting more popular! We are in peak foliage season here in the northern hemisphere on planet Earth, for those receiving this in other parts of the solar system. The warm weather lately has been nice, but I’d trade it for seasonal temps and more daylight. That is the part that is tougher for me to adjust to.
For those who don’t know about it, the archives of the CPRA is housed safely at Middlebury College. You can learn more about it here: https://www.crownpointroad.org/home/archives/. A short time ago, I visited it for my first time. It was like a goldmine and the available time just vanished. I hope to go back someday. Some of the glimpses I saw of the past included old program guides and membership forms. I’ve attached one of each to this email for your pleasure. The dues have gone up a bit, but much less than inflation!
As the year continues to flyby, we now have about a week to this year’s annual meeting. I know the word “meeting” is often a turnoff and a bore. But our business meetings go pretty fast and lead to good things. Feel free to show up fashionably late if you just want to see the guest speaker. This year we are having it on historic ground, in Charleston NH. This will offer a very historic and engaging environment. We will be meeting on October 15th, at the Fort at No. 4. You can read about it and how to get there on their website: https://www.fortat4.org/. The fort is open from 11-3:30pm. Normally there is an admission fee to visit the fort, but the CPRA will cover the costs to our attendees. You’re welcome to make a donation to the fort as it is certainly a good cause. When you arrive, mention that you’re there for the CPRA and they won’t charge you. Feel free to arrive early and enjoy the theme of the weekend: “Women of the Fort”. Their website explains: “Join us at Fort at No. 4 and explore some of the many roles women had in the 18th century on the frontier.” Our Annual Meeting will commence at the Farnsworth House at 1PM with our traditional potluck dinner — bring your place setting and a dish to share – followed by our business meeting at 1:45 and concluding at 2:15pm with our featured presentation on Col. Nathan Whiting who was Garrison Commander at Fort at No. 4 in 1757 by noted period historian John-Eric Nelson. Guests welcome to attend any part of the schedule. For more info, call Barry at (802) 492-3573 or email bgriffithvt@gmail.com NOTE: our business meeting has been moved up to make sure there is enough time for our presenter as we will have to leave when the Fort closes at 3:30pm.
You may recall from my recent newsletter that there was a presentation to the DAR about Ann Story. Video of that presentation is being edited and soon will be available to watch on the local public access station (PEG TV) and we will also work on getting it available on YouTube. When we have more information about the viewing options, I’ll share them with you all.
I do hope to see some of you at the upcoming meeting. John-Eric is an entertaining speaker and catching up with fellow “roadies” is always fun. Until we meet again, be well and keep history alive!
Hello Friends of the Road,
Are you ready for some football? It is almost time for a big game to start, so I may not be too long in this newsletter. I hope you are all doing well. The daylight is fading quickly, so enjoy this time as soon we’ll be turning the heat back on!
I have a series of announcements to share with you all. First the bad news. I know, I didn’t give you a choice if you want the bad news first or the good news. I like to end on a high note, so bad news first. Our upcoming Plymouth outing on September 30th is cancelled for this year. I know, that’s 2 cancellations this year. We will do our best to make it up to you and have a great year next year. We do still have the Annual Meeting coming up and that is going to have some bonus fun, so stay tuned. So once again, no hike this month. You now have the day available for other activities.
I have THREE events to talk about though. On this Saturday (the 16th) at 10am, meet at the Hubbardton Battlefield Museum & Visitors Center. After a brief lecture about the historic battle fought there and the ultimate retreat by American forces, a tour will leave the Visitor Center and ascend the nearby hillside part way up the ridge. People should bring snacks/lunch, and good hiking shoes. It will take about 3 hours. Admission will be charged at the Hubbardton Battlefield and will allow entrance to visitor center and site. Leaders will be Travis Hart (State & Private Lands Biologist with the VT Dept. of Fish and Wildlife) and Jim Rowe (CPRA Historian). For more info, call Jim at (802) 434-7415.
The second event is going to be held this week in Bridport. I know it is on a workday and short notice, but I hope some can attend. The Ann Story chapter of the DAR will be hosting a meeting in Shrewsbury Thursday the 14th. It will be a great opportunity to get familiar with some very important local history. At 11:30am there will be a business meeting, then a lunch, then a presentation. If you are going, you NEED to RSVP to julanne sharrow julanne@vermontel.net so they can be prepared. Please bring something to add to a salad provided. It’s at the Shrewsbury Meeting House 88 Lottery Rd, Shrewsbury, VT 05738.
The last, but not least event I have to share is coming up later this month. It will feature a presentation by our current CPRA President, Barry Griffith. I’ve attended some of his presentations before and he does a great job. This will be in Bridport, VT and he will offer some local history for the area, along with an overview about the Crown Point Road. Barry will be speaking at the Annual Meeting of the Bridport Historical Society on Sunday, September 24. The meeting is at the Masonic/Community Hall – at the junction of the Middle Road and Crown Point Road (of course). There will be a potluck at 1 PM followed by the presentation at 2 PM or so. Please come if you can.
And finally, I’d like to offer a fun tidbit for you to chew on. It is related to the Bridport event, and offers a really cool glimpse into the past. This was provided by our long time supporter and Historian of all Historians, Elaine Purdy. Attached is that image.
That is all for now. A sporting event of pain and drama awaits me.
Take care and keep studying history!
Hello Friends of the Road,
As I’m writing this I am heavily distracted by a particular ballgame being played right now in Boston. I am not guaranteeing that I will finish this tonight, but I’ll try. It is now October and the postseason has begun. On top of that, I received flower bulbs today, so it really is Fall. Hard work now, makes for enjoyment later though. I hope you are all well.
Speaking of hard work paying off, our season of outings concluded recently and we had no bad weather days. I can’t jinx next season can I? It was a great year of gatherings and all the planning by the board and the outing leaders paid off. If I’m worrying you, fear not, the Annual Meeting is coming up. I just didn’t consider that part of the outing schedule. More about that later.

Our beloved marker 45A is on the “disabled list”. Sorry, I can’t help it. Sports are on my mind. Recently there was some municipal work being done next to the marker and after some discussion it was decided to remove the marker. It was in bad shape because it was so sunken into the earth after years of being there. The CPRA board and members of the Pittsford community are discussing if another location is best. There was a lot of concrete on the marker and thanks to some volunteers, that has been removed. As soon as it is returned to the earth, I’ll be sure to let you know where to find it. You may need to add a post-it note to your markers guidebook if the location changes. For those that don’t have a book, they are still on sale for a great price of $10 (plus shipping if needed).
And now for the Main Event! The Annual Meeting is always a great event as it includes a casual setting to socialize with other history enthusiasts, and to learn something new (hopefully). In an effort to maintain a comfortable and safe environment, we’ve decided to change the planned pot luck meal to a bring your own meal option. I hope you all understand. The rest of the meeting will be as planned. It is a great and historical venue, and I’m looking forward to seeing the inside for the first time. That is another great part of the Annual Meeting, as its location varies year to year. It gives people chances to see new places. I’ll now share the official press release. If you have questions about the event, please let me know. I hope to see many of you there!

for immediate releaseCrown Point Road Association
History Researcher to relate “Ethan Allen and Scottish settlers in Rupert, Pawlet, and along Otter Creek” on Sunday, Oct. 17
POULTNEY, VT (October 6, 2021) – – The public is invited to the historic Poultney Welsh Church on Sunday afternoon, October 17, 2021 to hear a fresh clarification of the murky history of “Ethan Allen and the Green Mountain Boys evicting Scottish settlers” as presented by Mr. Robert Hoar of Bennington VT.
No admission will be charged for those attending this event. The gathering begins with a relaxed 1:00 p.m. bring-your-own-lunch held in the dining area downstairs and will be followed by a Crown Point Road Association annual business meeting upstairs at 1:30, and concludes there with a 2:30 p.m. illustrated presentation by guest speaker Robert Hoar, historical researcher and history interpreter. C.P.R.A. president Barry Griffith of Shrewsbury VT stated that the speaker’s subject “will be of great interest to all who like to learn the remarkable history of early Vermont.”
The event will be held indoors at 42 Grove Street, the location of the Poultney Welsh Church, found beside the Poultney town office building in the village. The venue is located on the west side of VT Route 30, diagonally across the street from a corner gas and convenience store with a Dunkin Donuts. There is no off-street parking, so motorists may need to park up to a block away. The 120-year-old church building, once the home of the Poultney Welsh Male Chorus, is a prominent landmark in the Poultney historic district.
Crown Point Road Association is an all-volunteer non-profit membership organization established for the benefit of the public in 1958 to help promote, remember, research, and interpret the 77-mile-long 1759 military supply road. The northwest terminus of the road (whose route diagonally crosses Vermont) was the 1759 British fort “Crown Point” built on a prominent peninsula located along the western shoreline of Lake Champlain. The southeast terminus was the stockade fort at Number 4 on the Connecticut River in Charlestown NH.
Hello Friends of the Road,
I’m writing this on Labor Day. I’m not one to sit still, so I’m being laborious as usual. But I’ve dialed it down a notch, so I don’t feel too guilty. I’ve spent the past couple days working on a stone stairway in my backyard. It gives me deep appreciation for masons and all those stonewall builders. I’ve learned some tricks of the trade during my sweat filled bug bite sessions. I’ve also learned that I should stick to my day job. I know my back will thank me for that intent.
The daylight hours are now quickly shifting, but fret not, there is still plenty of good weather to get out to hike, explore and seek out the roadside markers. I feel this is a nicer time generally because it is cooler and less bugs.
Recently, there has been exciting exploration on the route of the Hubbardton Military Road. Don’t forget that fun little branch road and if you haven’t read the Wheeler book recently, it is time to dust it off. I don’t know about you, but every time I read it, I learn something new. I will tell the tale about the exploration in a future newsletter.
We recently ordered a new batch of embroidered CPRA hats. They look good and will be offered in next years mailing. But if you want one prior, attend one of the remaining outings this year or email me your request.
Last month Jim Rowe led a group on a car tour from Orwell to Hubbardton. I’ve attached copies of the handouts for all of you.
Our President, Barry Griffith has been hard at work preparing for the upcoming outing. We’d like to make it clear that this will not be and easy stroll down the side of a town road. This is a true hike – not for everybody. The visit requires an off trail “bushwhack” through the woods, over uneven and sometimes wet terrain. It is somewhat less than a mile to the site, and should take under an hour to get there. Uphill on the way in; downhill on the way back. We hope that those who are ready, willing and able will enjoy the opportunity to inspect the site. Here is the official write up for the outing on September 11th: There are a number of encampment sites along the Crown Point Road which were used by those traveling between southern New England and Lake Champlain. This Saturday local historian Tom Ellis will lead us on an examination of one such site on his property in the southeast corner of the Town of Plymouth. Meet at 10 AM at the Tyson Community Church parking lot on Route 100. Wear hiking shoes, bring water and a lunch. For more info, call Barry at (802) 492-3573. One last bit of information is about the current road conditions. Route 100 is being worked on from Route 4 south to about Farm & Wilderness / Woodard Reservoir. Traffic being detoured over 100A. Folks coming through Rutland should perhaps take Route 103.
I will now bid you adieu. Enjoy the day, and until we meet again…
Hello Friends of the Road,
I hope you are all doing well. I saw signs of the times tonight as I had to turn on lights earlier in the evening, and saw some colored leaves on neighbor’s trees. Not mine though! I’m glueing them on the branches and painting each one green. So enjoy the season before it passes us by. I do enjoy this cooler weather and the ability to have windows open more.
We had a good turnout at the recent car tour in Clarendon. I think we had almost 30 participants! We were able to find some good shade at most stops, as it was a fairly hot day. Everyone left knowing a lot more of the local history and now when I drive down those roads I pay more attention to some of the old structures. Thank you Robert Underhill of the Clarendon Historical Society for all your preparations and lectures. Loyal attendee Rebecca Hougher shared some great pictures she took at the event. You can view them HERE. Back on the subject of the Clarendon Historical Society, if you haven’t seen the Clarendon Historical’s website, you should. It has by far more information than any other local historical society I’ve seen. It even competes with the Vermont Historical Society, and they have a LOT more area to cover!

In my last newsletter, I shared information about David Ordway thanks to Elaine Purdy. In response to my email, Historian Bill Powers shared another article about David. It is attached for your reading pleasure. Thanks Bill!

We also were fortunate to sign up a couple new members at the last outing. It is always fun meeting new fans of history. Hopefully we’ll have some newcomers again this Saturday. Until we meet again, be well and keep reading about history!
Hello Friends of the Road,
Have any of you been walking the back roads lately? The frequent rains we’ve been having in the Northeast have taken a rest thankfully. If only we could have sent some of that rain out west huh? Those days of smoke in the air certainly hit home. Back to the walks, I digress. With all the rain you don’t have to worry about eating dust as cars wiz by, which is nice. The days are still long enough to enjoy some of the evenings after work too. I hope you are all enjoying the Summer.
It was a great turnout at the big event down in Bennington recently. Despite the warnings of flash floods and such, the turnout was quite good and the weather turned out quite reasonable, except for a bit of humidity. The first of a kind event was organized by a diverse, ambitious, and passionate team of volunteers. Months of planning paid off and the lingering buzz afterwards may just lead to other historical events in the future, so keep your ears open for more fun! I have a few pictures to share from the outing. They were shared by CPRA member Liz Petraska. She used software to give some an old time look that is quite appealing. You can view them HERE. Thanks Liz!
Quickly approaching like a mad bull is our next CPRA outing. This coming Saturday, we have another exciting chapter of the Taverns tour Jim Rowe invented and has been so masterly organizing. So gas up your cars, and prepare for the fun. Here is the full write-up for the outing: August 7: Members and the public are encouraged to attend the third segment of the Taverns, Homesteads and Other Points of Interest Car Tour. Meet at the Clarendon Town Hall at 279 Middle Road in Clarendon at 10am. We will tour by car along the original route of the Crown Point Road to learn about many points of interest. This year’s tour segment will end in the Center Rutland area. Bring a lunch. The leader will be Jim Rowe assisted by members of the Historical Society of Clarendon, Vermont. For more info, call Jim at (802) 434-7415

That is all for now. I have to get back to other things on my to-do list. See you at the crossroads!
Hello Friends of the Road,
I hope you are all well. We are quickly approaching mid July already! I hope you’re getting your fill from local snack bars and ice cream shops. I visited a local one today and enjoyed a haddock sandwich with fries and a milkshake. I eat fairly healthy, so I have no regrets from getting greasy once in a while. As soon as my gardens start producing, I’ll be filling up on veggies for sure. Thankfully we’ve been getting much needed rain lately, so my daily watering hasn’t been a requirement.
The talk of the town is all about a big event brewing in Bennington. It has involved countless people and hours of planning. It is remarkable how much something like this takes to prepare for. A typical CPRA outing that involves a simple handout and route planning is a bit of work, but a huge day of events like what is happening a week from today is a mammoth effort. There are a number of organizations involved, sponsors, vendors, and much more. There are a few key leaders that I won’t name in fear of leaving any out, but they all deserve a pat on the back and a thank you for sure! So where shall I begin to explain what this is all about? One source for info is the event’s Facebook page. That can be found here: https://www.facebook.com/pg/1771birthofvermont2021-109193811247958/posts/ . Otherwise, there is lots of info out there about what happened at Breakenridge back in 1771. The overall goal is to celebrate the 250th anniversary of what happened there, which arguably could be called the “Birthplace of Vermont”. I’ve attached some documents to describe the schedule of events planned for the day. They aren’t official yet, but are very solid. There will be a table setup to represent the CPRA, so if you attend, be sure to stop and say hi. July 18th is the day of the action!
