About Poultney, Vermont

Poultney is a town of 3,020 people in Rutland County, on the New York line west of the Taconic Mountains. Benning Wentworth, royal governor of New Hampshire, chartered it on September 21, 1761, naming it for the British orator William Pulteney, 1st Earl of Bath. The land sat empty until February 15, 1771, when two brothers-in-law, Thomas Ashley and Ebenezer Allen, put up a cabin beside the Poultney River.

The settlers organized the town on March 8, 1775, but war soon reached them. In 1777 General John Burgoyne's British army pushed down from the north, so the men went off to fight, and on July 8 the women and children fled, most of them to their old homes in Connecticut and Massachusetts. After Burgoyne's defeat they came back the next spring. Allen moved on to settle South Hero in 1783, while Ashley stayed in the house he had built until his death in 1810 and served six times in the General Assembly.

  • Where Horace Greeley learned printingHorace Greeley was fifteen in 1826 when he came to East Poultney as an apprentice printer at the Northern Spectator, under Amos Bliss. He remained until 1830 and went on to found the New-York Tribune. Poultney native George Jones, born in 1811, also worked at the Spectator. At Greeley's Tribune he met Henry Jarvis Raymond, and they started the New-York Daily Times in 1851.
  • Jeffrey Brace, soldier and citizenBorn Boyrereau Brinch in West Africa, Jeffrey Brace was seized as a boy and enslaved. He fought in the Revolution under Return Meigs at White Plains and Fort Mifflin and left the army at West Point in 1783 with an honorable discharge and a Badge of Merit. Once free, he made his home in Poultney, which counts him as its first African-American citizen, and Benjamin Prentiss published the story of his life.
  • The green at East PoultneyA grist mill went up in 1777, and East Poultney, the first town center, grew around it. Its triangular green still looks much as it did in the 1800s. Around it stand the Eagle Tavern of 1780, the Union Academy of 1791, the Federal style Baptist church that builder Elisha Scott designed in 1805, and the Horace Greeley House of 1823.
  • Slate and the WelshIn the second half of the 1800s, slate from Poultney's quarries became a major export, and the Rutland and Washington Railroad helped the western village of Poultney outgrow East Poultney. Welsh slate workers, facing hard times and few chances to rise at home, brought their skills here. The industry lasted until the Great Depression, and the Green Mountain College choir was said to sing the only fully Welsh repertoire in the country.
  • Green Mountain College, 1834Troy Conference Academy opened in 1834 as a Methodist school where boys and girls studied together, and it grew into Green Mountain College. For part of its history the school admitted only women. In the late 1990s it shifted its teaching toward the environment. The designer Amsale Aberra came from Ethiopia at nineteen to study commercial art there. The college closed in 2019.
