The title is History of the First Congregational Church of Windsor VT 1768 to 1898. There is an introduction that says the vote was passed in 1767 to build a church in Windsor.

Hi Jill and all: According to the "The Early Settlers of Plymouth, Vermont" it offers the following: For the first few years, church services were held in the home of Nahtaniel Bowman Brown. The Congregation Church was formed in 1806, over which Rev. Prince Jenne presided for several years. Nathaniel Browne owned a log cabin a mile north of Lake Amherst, south of the Putnan Brown Farm. Unfortunately it doesn't say where that is. The next entry states: The first Union Meeting House was built in Plymouth Kingdom in 1815-16. The next church to be built was in Plymouth Notch, 1840-46. A Methodist Church was organized, and for years services and funerals were held in the Levi Green Hall at the Union. I know this isn't much but hope it helps a little.
