This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list.

(Panton section) and to Burwell's in Bridport, p. 391 See www.middlebury.edu/~lib/AddisonCoHistory/DirectoryHAC.html Next step would be to search early town records. If you can't get to them in VT or through the vital records at Middlesex try the Mormons. All town records were microfilmed and available on order at LDS Research Centers in every state.
