DEDICATION

Dedicated to the memory of long-time publisher of the

Rutland Herald, Robert W. Mitchell (1910-1993),

whose assistance in obtaining the early issues

of the Herald was invaluable.


Introduction

The second five-year compilation of news items from the Rutland Herald spans 1811-1815 . The War of 1812 and the epidemic of 1813 dominated the news during this period. In January 1813 peripneumony (not to be confused with spotted fever which was prevalent the year before) struck the soldiers quartered on Lake Champlain . Within a month it spread throughout New England and New York, taking the lives of one in every 30 Vermonters. Most of the mortalities occurred in March. With the onset of warm weather in May the epidemic disappeared, leaving many family circles broken and survivors weakened in health .

The first issue of the Rutland Herald or Vermont Mercury was published at Rutland, Vermont on 8 December 1794. The four-page weekly newspaper was devoted mostly to international, national and state events, especially on the political scene. It also carried notices and advertisements for the county, some local news, death notices and marriages. Due to the lengthy reports of hostilities in the South during the Civil War, publication went daily in April 1866.

Because the project of copying details from these newspapers is so massive and time-consuming, it was decided to release this information in five year increments. Every effort has been made to locate the missing issues.

The reader should be informed that when reading the obituaries and marriages that "this town" is Rutland; inst. refers to the present month and ult. to the month prior. Consort is the spouse; relict is the widow. These notices not only included Rutland, but various other towns in Vermont and other states. Unfortunately the state is not always listed after each town where the event occurred. The original spelling has been kept throughout. It must be noted that these notices were handwritten and were deciphered by the newspaper staff. Thus misspellings do occur. It is often difficult to read the microfilm due to the age of the newspapers.

A possible correction to the 1816-1820 book has been suggested to us . contains a list of delinquent taxpayers. One name in Chittenden is listed as Lilly Pollador; we believe the name should have been reversed and read as Pollador Lilly as there was such a person who died in Chittenden in 1855.

Our sincere gratitude is extended to the following:
