>From my sister who has worked at the Shelburne for many seasons Hi Harriet, This person's Dad is correct. Dr. Jarvis' office is set up at the Shelburne Museum on the 2nd floor of the Shelburne Country Store which is near the Blacksmith Shop. You could say the museum resembles the 'twilight zone' for its array of objects and buildings. Electra Havemeyer Webb's family was wealthy because they found (The Havemeyers) a way to make pure white cane sugar from sugar cane. Previously, only brown sugar and molasses could be extracted from the cane. Today that Havemeyer Sugar Company is called Domino Sugar. There is a Havemeyer St. In NYC. There is a Havemeyer Wing at the NY Metropolitan Museum of Fine Art. Electra's parents collected European art. Some of that art is in the Webb Memorial Building in Shelburne, but most of the art was given to the NY museum. Electra's mother Louisine Waldron Havemeyer, and many other wealthy women in this country, helped to fund the Women's Right to vote movement in the early1900's. She spoke to large crowds, she traveled by train and on her own car (with a driver of course, went to jail to make a point, gave speeches where she sometimes was heckled and protected by the local sheriff so that she wouldn't be injured by flying debris. Her daughter, Electra, the museum founder was embarrassed by the her mother's behavior. Now the Webbs were very wealthy also. They were wealthy from owning a lot of real estate similar to the Livingstons of NY. The museum, however, was Electra's project. If she had been a man she would be a VT state icon. The museum brings many, many people to VT and one of the first things they do is visit the museum. .... This will help your friend get started.

Thank you. Yes.  That may be the place.  Maybe Dr. Jarvis' office in in the Apothocary Building.  Alice Gordon ----- Original Message ----- From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Sent: Monday, February 7, 2011 12:27:14 AM Subject: [VERMONT] Shelburne Museum Alice , I think you are talking about the Shelburne Museum, check out the following web site.

Can anyone tell me about the Village Yard Cemetery in Jamaica, VT.  Does it have another name it now goes by? Thanks for your help.

Oh yes - the place near lake Champlain is the one. My parents were visiting someone on the lake that summer.

Allie GIBSON has quit clerking for L. S. RICHARDSON, for the present, and is attending school. D. F.

The Vermont Tribune, Ludlow, Friday, December 11, 1885 Landgrove 12/11/1885 Mrs. Patrick DUANE is quite poorly. Last Monday gave us a "blizzard"--the first of the winter. We desire to extend our sincere thanks to the neighbors and friends, also to the Masonic Fraternity, for their kindness and sympathy through the death and burial of our dear husband and father. May God's choicest blessings attend them through life. Mrs. L. M. BAILEY, Andrew M. BAILEY, Nellie A. BAILEY Transcribed by Ruth Barton -- Ruth Barton [email protected] Dummerston, VT

The Vermont Tribune, Ludlow, Friday, December 11, 1885 Windham 12/11/1885 The 7th inst. was convincing evidence that we did not get all of our cold weather last summer. The people at the South Village are intending to have a Christmas-tree and exercises for Christmas eve. The winter terms of school have commenced. Stephen DUTTON teaches in district No. 7, A. J. HOLDEN is district No. 5, and a young Mr. WATERMAN, from Jamaica, teaches in the Stearns district. Miss Sarah A. THOMPSON presides over the juvenile aspirations at the Center (district No. 1), making the third term that she has kept in the same place. She approximates as near to giving universal satisfaction as a teacher can usually. The 27th ult., as L. A. BALLOU was returning from Townshend with his matched pair of horses, when near the TAFT place (where he and his brother had been to look at a pair of cattle) the near horse caught one fore foot in a stone sluice, which threw her down. It took the united strength of two men to get her liberated. They found no bones broken, but the flesh was cut, leaving the cords and bone bare. Josiah TAFT sewed up the wound, and it is doing as well as can be expected, but it will be some time before she will be fit to drive.
