They moved from Hartford, NY to Ticonderoga after 1816 where he bought a 200 acre tract of land in the Vineyard. Here he built the first squared log house in town. When this house was built, the old log barn across the road had already been built for some time, and many think it was one of General Burgoyne's outposts. The old house was occupied by several generations until destroyed by fire in Dec 27, 1927 They were still in Ticonderoga in 1820 and the census of 1830 stated three SWEETs, William and his sons, Ithamer and James and it appeared that they had farms neighboring each other.
