|
|
October 16-19, 1781 Proceedings of the Grand Committee of the Vermont legislature which was held in Charlestown. The proceedings resulted in a
proposal to the U.S. Congress that Vermont become a independent state with the U.S., with boundaries west of the Connecticut River. Of note, this was a
requirement for the state to join the Union. Also included was a message to the public from William Page which objected to not allowing the towns on
the East side of the river from remaining in Vermont. (Digitized from a microfilm copy of titles originally held by the New Hampshire State Library).
