DANVILLE. Population, Census of 1900, 1,784.
This town was named in honor of the distinguished French admiral, D'Anville.
The tract and some adjoining land was originally granted under the authority of New York, with the name of Hillsborough.
October 21, 1186, Vermont granted to Jacob Bailey, Jesse Leavenworth, and others a new township lying near the center of the Hillsborough grant. Naturally disagreements respecting boundary lines and titles arose between the proprietors and the settlers, and the whole question was referred to the legislature, which issued a new charter to the proprietors Novem- ber 12, 1802. Considerable addi- tions to the original township have been made by the annexation in 1892 of Walden Gore, and in 1810 of a tract of 5,310 acres lying be- tween Peacham and Danville, called "The Boot."
Danville was selected as the shire
town of Caledonia county and re- mained so until the county build- ings were removed to St. Johns- bury in 1855. In 1805 the general assembly convened here. In the spring of 1783 or 1784, Charles Hacket made a small elearing on what is now called the "Isaac Mor- rill pitch." In March, 1784, Cap- tain Charles Sias made the first act- ual permanent settlement in town. Mr. Sias brought with him his wife and ten children.
During the year 1785 or the spring of 1786 some fifty emigrants from New Hampshire and Massa- chusetts settled as squatters.
During the War of 1812 Danville raised a company of volunteers to serve six months, which was sta- tioned near Canada line. During the Civil war Danville furnished 245 men, including reenlistments.
GOSS. ASHLEY J., son of Albert and Jane (Northrup) Goss, was born in Peacham, August 4, 1866. He was brought up on the paternal farm, where he formed correct habits, and a strong constitution, and completed his education at Peacham academy under C. A. Bunker. Leaving home at eighteen years of age, he went to Monterey, California, and was variously em- ployed at Hotel Del Monte six years, where he enjoyed an inter- esting and valuable experience. Re- turning to Vermont in the fall of 1891. he came to West Danville and
began a three years' apprenticeship at the stone cutter's trade with Willox & AArmstrong. After work- ing with this firm one year as a journeyman, he went into the gran- ite business for himself, and has successfully continued here until the present time. Beginning in a

Here the subject of this sketch passed his boyhood, and his literary education was completed at Lyndon institute. He studied medicine three years with his father, and completed his medical education at Dartmouth, and at the medical department of the University of Vermont, from which he graduated in 1884.
He married Miss Lou E. Paige, daughter of John D. and Lydia (Day) Paige of Sheffield in 1883. In July, 1884, Dr. Carter moved to

land, M. D., then of Danville, and moved to this village.
Dr. Carter was thoroughly de- voted to the practice of his profes- sion, and his practice steadily in- creased, and at the time of his sud- den and lamented death in Jan- uary, 1904, had become extensive in this and surrounding towns. He was a man of warm sympathies and formed strong friendships with his brethren of the medical profession. His interests centered in his pro- fessional life-work and in his do- mestic relations, which were always most happy. He was ever a devoted husband, a true friend, and an up- right citizen.
Dr. Carter was one of a family of three sons and two daughters, all of whom survive him, and his aged father and mother are still living. One brother, G. A. Carter, M. D., is located at Hardwick, and the other, R. A. Carter, D. D. S., is lo- cated at Lyndonville. Dr. Carter was a member of Washburn lodge, No. 92, F. & A. M., and a prelate of Damon lodge, No. 16, Knights of Pythias, of Danville.
FRASIER, GILMAN V., son of Curtis and Sally (Seaver) Frasier, was born at Albany, Vermont, July 12, 1850. At fifteen years of age he moved with the family to East Burke, where he received a good farm and common school training. Leaving home at eighteen years of age, he went to Boston, and there learned the painter's trade, which he followed until 1881, when he went to West Concord, and rented the West Concord House, which he suc- cessfully conducted two years. He then returned to East Burke, erected a store, and for two years engaged in general merchandising. In the
fall of 1885 he went to Riverside, California, and located in the hotel business in company with M. S. Rowell, also a Vermonter. At

Riverside and Los Angeles Mr. Fra- sier and his partner conducted four hotels, where during the boom times they furnished from one thou- sand to fifteen hundred meals a day, and made a mint of money, losing a large share of it in the collapse of values that came in the hard times of 1891. Compelled by declining health to make a change of climate, he returned to Vermont and re- sumed trade at his store at East Burke, which meanwhile had been rented, and was soon after ap- pointed postmaster, retaining that position four years with his busi- ness, which he then sold to Croft & Webster.
He then went to St. Johnsbury and engaged in the hotel business for two years enjoying a thriving patronage. In 1895 he went

to Barton, and became well known as the popular travel- ing salesman of the Percival Manufacturing company for four years. He then became a large stockholder, director and vice-pres- ident of the Percival Furniture com- pany, which bought out the Perci- val Manufacturing company, and continued as the traveling salesman of that company until October, 1902, when he removed to West Danville and bought the stock and rented the store of Perkins & Wakefield, the leading general store of the village. Mr. Frasier carries all the lines usually found in a first-class general store, and is do- ing an active and increasing busi- ness. The public confidence was expressed by his immediate ap- pointment as postmaster at West Danville.
With a remarkably wide and va- ried experience of men and affairs, excellent practical judgment and a genial personality, Mr. Frasier has been successful as salesman, land- lord, and financier.
He married Marietta, daughter of Abner Eggleston of East Burke, in 18:1. This lady died in July, 1899. In 1902 he married Mrs. Sarah Boomhower of Worcester, Massachusetts. Her only son, Lonie, seventeen years of age, by her former marriage, was drowned in Joes pond soon after their arri- val at West Danville, which cast a gloom over the whole community.
For more than thirty years Mr. Frasier has been a member of Cale- donia lodge, I. O. O. F., of St. Johnsbury, also of the encampment and canton.
WATERFORD.
Population, Census of 1900, 705.
The town was originally char- tered under the name of Littleton to Benjamin Whipple, November S, 1:80. The more euphonious name of Waterford, expressive of the early custom of fording the Connecticut, was adopted in 1797. The proprie- tors' records show that a proprietors' meeting, held in Barnet in 1783, was adjourned to the house of James Adams in "said Littleton," which shows that Mr. Adams, presumably the first settler, was here as early as 1783. The next settlers were Jo- seph and John Woods, who came as early as 1784 or '85, and settled on the Passumpsie river. Soon after the Pikes, Daniel and Nathan, and their families, located as the pio- neers in the eastern part of the town.
The town was organized in 1793. The first town officers were: Selah Howe, clerk; Peter Sylvester, Daniel Pike, and Nehemiah Hadley, select- men; Samuel Fletcher, constable, and Abel Goss treasurer. Other early set- tlers were Luther Knight, Jonathan Ross, Alphens Bugbee, Sylvanus Hemingway, Rev. Silas Davison, Deacon Parley Church, Eli Green, Elijah and Aaron Freeman, William Brown, Jesse Stoddard, John Stiles, Asa Hovey, and others, nearly all of whom have lineal descendants now living in town. The first saw- mill was built by Soloman Pomeroy, near the present mill at Waterford village, and the first hotel was built at that village by Warren Call. John Stiles built a sawmill at the outlet of Stiles' pond in 1807, and an oil mill in 1818, and the little hamlet of
213
CALEDONIA COUNTY.
Waterford Hollow, with store and hotel, were formerly located here. The first church was built in 1818, near the center of the town. Dr. Richard F. Rowell began the prac- tice of medicine at Waterford in 1825, and was the leading resident physician for half a century. Four of his six sons served in the Civil war. Dr. Ralph Bugbee, a noted surgeon, was the local physician at Lower Waterford.
The latter village was formerly a lively trade center, when St. Johns- bury was merely a small village, but since the advent of the railroads business here has greatly declined. The village contains the Congrega- tional church, Bowman's hotel, Goss' store, Morrison's blacksmith and repair shop, and a score or more of dwellings.
Waterford has the Union church, a store, grocery, harness shop, black- smith shop, and sawmill, and about twenty-five residences.
Waterford, with its diversified scenery of mountain and valley. with its fertile soil, hill pastures. and maple groves, is preeminently an agricultural town.
Waterford furnished 130 men for the Union cause during the Civil war, and raised and paid more than $27,000 without entailing a town debt.
Its citizens have ever been noted for their conservative and substan- tial character, and their hospitality.
