Can anyone tell me - which is the proper way to spell the town of Enosburg - Enosburgh or Enosburg? I keep seeing Enosburgh, Enosburg, Enosburgh Falls, and Enosburg Falls. I'm trying to be consistent in my database, but all the spellings are a bit confusing. Thank you. Kathy

Kathy, This does get a little confusing. The spelling of the town is "Enosburgh", however the village is "Enosburg Falls" with that spelling. The town of Enosburgh, Vermont includes the village Enosburg Falls and the locations Bordoville, East Enosburgh, North Enosburgh, Samsonville, West Enosburgh, and Enosburgh Center. You will find that many natives use the shortened version for the East, North, West and Center localities of the town. Enosburgh was named for Ira Allen's father-in-law, Roger Enos, who had been a commander of all the Vermont Forces in the American Revolution. Hope this helps. Vern

The official Web site of the town, at: http://www.enosburghvermont.org/ says this: "Enosburgh includes the village Enosburg Falls and the locations Bordoville, East Enosburgh, North Enosburgh, Samsonville, West Enosburgh, and Enosburgh Center. Enosburgh was named for Roger Enos, who had been a commander of all the Vermont Forces in the American Revolution. He was also Ira Allen's father-in-law. Curiously the spelling of Enosburgh differs from the spelling of Enosburg Falls." Darrell
