Heard you were in Carrick a few years back, we missed you by a week! I spoke to one of the Coady`s who said he gave you a copy of a letter his great-uncle had sent from Vermont to Carrick.

Capt. William Loveland is actually buried in Carroll Hill Cemetery, Fairfax, Vermont.   Carroll Hill Cemetery is located in Buck Hollow and is also at times referred to as the Orton Cemetery.   A copy of a map showing location of each gravestone is available at the Fairfax Town Clerk's Office in Fairfax, Vermont. Safford Cemetery is also located on the Buck Hollow Road, but this is not the cemetery you want. You can find Captain William H. LOVELAND's grave listed at http://www.vtgrandpa.com/fhs/Carro.html. Hope this helps. Vernon

Can anyone please tell me where the cemetery Buck Hollow is?  I have a death record from Fairfax, VT that says a person is buried there and I wanted to see this cemetery is listed on Find-A-Grave and I can't seem to locate it.  Maybe it goes by another name? The person is Capt. William Loveland. Thanks for your help.

Source, Rutland Weekly Herald-- Thur. Dec. 14, 1905. Page 7. RUTLAND, VT. INJURIES FATAL. Sheriff Daniel Putnam Peabody Struck by Train and Died a Few Hours Later. Daniel Putnam Peabody, aged 73 years, sheriff of Rutland county for the past 27 years, died at his home at 6:30 Tuesday evening. Death was the result of internal injuries received in the afternoon, when he was struck by No. 153, known as the Boston flyer, north bound, on the Rutland railroad. SLIPPED and FELL. Sheriff Peabody walked to the railroad station at 2:30 o'clock, with the intention of mailing two letters on the "Flyer." As he walked across the tracks to the mailing car, he slipped and fell to one side of the track. Just as he fell, the beam bumper of the engine on train No.153 struck him on the left side. He realized the danger, and drew his feet close to his body, thus preventing the wheels of the locomotive and cars from passing over them. MANY WITNESSED ACCIDENT. He was dragged several feet before the train stopped. The accident occurred directly in front of the station, in the presence of many passengers and employees of the railroad. Thomas C. Clarke, station master, was the first person to reach the injure man. Sheriff Peabody was lying in the snow beside the locomotive. He was assisted to his feet and complained of severe pains about his body. Railroad men did not at first believe that any bones we broken. He remained at the station a few minutes and was removed to his home in an ambulance. While the injured man was being taken to his home, medical attendance was telephoned for. Dr. J. E. Thomson was the first physician to arrive. Dr. Charles S. Caverly arrived a few minutes later. Other physicians who assisted in caring for the suffering man were Drs. Thomas A. Cootey and M.R. Crain. On examination at his home. it was discovered that Mr.Peabody had received a compound fracture of the left arm and right leg, close to the knee, and a fracture of several ribs on his left side. He also received other internal injuries, the nature of which is not clearly known. The physicians realized after the extent of the injuries were known that there was little hope of his recovery. MINDFUL OF DUTY TO THE LAST. Sheriff Peabody was conscious from the time the accident occurred up to within five minutes of his death. An hour after he was taken to his home, he requested that someone be sent to the railroad station to ascertain if the two letters which he said were important, had been mailed. His firm regard for duty was not lacking, even in agonies of the mortal wounds. WAS BORN IN MT. VERNON, N.H. Daniel Putnam Peabody was born in Mt. Vernon, N.H., August 17, 1832. He was the son of Isaac and Susan (Bradford) Peabody. His great-grandfather on the paternal side was Isaac Peabody of Salem, Mass.,and his grandfather, Daniel Peabody, settled in Andover, where his father was born. His mother was a native of Mt. Vernon, N.H. He received his education in the public schools and in Black River academy at Ludlow, Vt. His father lived in Chester, Andover and Weston successively, and he worked on the farm with his father until he was 17. Then he went to Pittsford to engage in service with his uncle, Joseph H. Peabody.The latter combined a mercantile and peddling business, dealing in woolen goods with farmers and young Peabody secured an interest, which he retained for 25 years. WAS IN THE LEGISLATURE. While a resident of Pittsford, he was appointed a justice of the peace, a position that he held for 10 consecutive years. He also represented from1864 to 1866. During the years 1868 and 1869, he represented Pittsford in the legislature a position which he filled with trust and honor to the people who elected him. SIX YEARS AS A DEPUTY. For six years he filled the office of deputy sheriff. This position he filled with such general satisfaction to all interested parties, that he was honored by being elected sheriff of Rutland county in 1878. This high office he held ever since. During his 27 years as sheriff of this county, Mr. Peabody won the hearts and admiration of all of his towns people, besides making a wide circle of friends and acquaintances in the county. HIS RE-ELECTIONS UNANIMOUS. After his election as sheriff, he moved to Rutland. His service as sheriff of Rutland county is of special importance, owing to the fact that he was re-elected every year without an opposing vote. Mr. Peabody was an active Mason, being a member of Otter Creek lodge, No. 70, of Pittsford, and of Farmers' chapter, No.9, Royal Arch Masons, of Brandon. WAS A REPUBLICAN. In politics Mr. Peabody was widely known as a staunch republican, always working for the best interests of his party. His first presidential vote was cast for John C. Freemont. Since that date he voted for every republican nominee. He was married October 20, 1853, to Miss Mary A. E. Woodbury, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Woodbury of Pittsford, who survives him. The death of Sheriff Peabody will be felt keenly in Rutland. In many ways his generosity has extended to the poor.He was a true friend and aided many families with his pocketbook, and other charitable ways which only those concerned know about today. Mr.Peabody was always deeply interested in the welfare of this city. Sheriff Peabody's deputies in Rutland county are Deputy Sheriffs Edward S. Whittaker of Rutland, Enos C. Fish of West Rutland, John H. Polly of Fair Haven, W.C. Fletcher of Brandon, Alonzo Herrick of Poultney, W.H.Startup of Proctor, J.E. Davis of Sherburne and D.E. Belden of Benson. Mr. Peabody was trustee of the Rutland Savings bank at the time of his death. Besides his wife, two sisters, Mrs. O. W. Fullam of Portland, Me., and Mrs. Albert Vose of Pittsfield, survive him.

Greetings: *** Please do not respond to this message in any way which sends your reply to the list. *** If you feel the need to comment, please contact me privately at either: [email protected] [email protected] The recent message asking about someone who was murdered by being harried by his wife was completely on topic for the VERMONT list. Further discussion of the death record as a genealogical document continues to be on topic, and will be welcomed. However, the thread has somehow gotten tangled up with the issue of abuse. This is a very important topic, one that affects a lot of people. It should be discussed. This is *NOT* the forum for that discussion. Abuse is a very emotional subject. It is extremely painful for the victims, for loved ones who are not directly involved, and -- in a few cases -- for those who have been falsely accused. There are those who go to great lengths to avoid dealing with it in any way, and it is not for us on the VERMONT list to impose our opinions on them. We are about genealogy, as it relates to the state of Vermont, and related topics. I am very flexible in that regard, but there is a limit, and we have crossed it. Lastly, should you wonder if I have any formal training in the field, the answer is yes, I do. I have a B.A. in Psychology. That qualifies me to be a puzzlement to my friends and, occasionally, myself; but I do know there is a time and a place for everything ... you get my drift. Darrell VERMONT list admin
