History of Corinth, Vermont (2016 update)

INDEX
to History of Corinth, Vermont:1764-1964
(updated January 2016*)
Photos, figures, and illustrations are indicated by page numbers in italics. Please also note that
this index was prepared 50 years after publication of the book. Names were often repeated
within families, and in some cases it was difficult to determine a person's generation. *Although
the index does not include the name of each person listed in the genealogy section of the book,
this updated version includes family names within that section. Comments and suggested
corrections should be sent to Jennifer Spanier: jenspanier@icloud.com.
