DEDICATION
Dedicated to the memory of long-time publisher of the
Rutland Herald, Robert W. Mitchell (1910-1993),
whose assistance in obtaining the early issues
of the Herald was invaluable.
RUTLAND HISTORICAL SOCIETY
Introduction
The first five-year compilation of news items from the Rutland Herald spans 1816-1820.
The year "1800 and Froze to Death" (1816) was particularly trying to Vermonters.
Monthly frosts and snow in June caused a massive crop failure. As a result a financial
panic occurred the following year. Many disheartened Vermonters moved to western
states where the growing season was longer.
The first issue of the Rutland Herald or Vermont Mercury was published at Rutland,
Vermont on 8 December 1794. The four-page weekly newspaper was devoted mostly to
international, national and state events, especially on the political scene. It also carried
notices and advertisements for the county, some local news, death notices and marriages.
Due to the lengthy reports of hostilities in the South during the Civil War, publication
went daily in April 1866.
Because the project of copying details from these newspapers is so massive and timeconsuming, it was decided to release this information in five year increments. Every
effort has been made to locate the missing issues.
The reader should be informed that when reading the obituaries and marriages that "this
town" is Rutland; inst. refers to the present month and ult. to the month prior. Consort is
the spouse; relict is the widow. These notices not only included Rutland, but various
other towns in Vermont and other states. Unfortunately the state is not always listed after
each town where the event occurred. The original spelling has been kept throughout. It
must be noted that these notices were handwritten and were deciphered by the newspaper
staff. Thus misspellings do occur. It is often difficult to read the microfilm due to the
age of the newspapers.
Our sincere gratitude to the following is extended:
