Of the new properties added in this Boundary Increase, 30 are primary buildings, 4 accessory buildings, and one contributing structure. The Montpelier Historic District, originally listed in 1978 and expanded with the East State Street Boundary Increase in 1989 is being concurrently updated in a 2016 Amendment. The total listed properties after 1989 Section 7 page 4 United States Department of the Interior National Park Service / National Register of Historic Places Registration Form NPS Form 10-900 OMB No. 1024-0018 Montpelier Historic District (2016 Boundary Increase) Washington, VT Name of Property County and State was 548 which included 467 contributing buildings and 7 contributing structures as well as 69 non-contributing buildings and 4 non-contributing structures. In 2006, an update to the existing district was begun by the City of Montpelier with the goal of re-evaluating the number, integrity and level of documentation of the historic properties in the district as well as document new construction. The documentation for the entire district was to be brought up to the current National Register standards, the period of significance had extended, and the boundaries were to be re-mapped based on current National Register practices. The 1978 map boundaries were based on distance from the main streets rather than on property/parcel lines. The re-mapping process using property lines resulted in small pockets of largely contributing buildings within the original boundaries that were historically related to the district around them but which had not been previously listed or documented. They are being listed now in this Boundary Increase. These are largely richly varied 19th and early 20th century residential resources consistent with the listed resources around them plus one structure – the stone Hubbard Park Observation Tower (#562) that juts into the large state house property (#491). The 36 resources of this Boundary Increase have integrity of location, design, setting, usually materials, workmanship, feeling, and association. ______________________________________________________________________________ Narrative Description This Boundary Increase adds a total of 36 resources (29 contributing and 7 non-contributing) to the Montpelier Historic District.

In 2006, an update to the existing district was begun by the City of Montpelier with the assistance of the Division for Historic Preservation through a CLG grant. The goal of the update was to re-evaluate the number, integrity and level of documentation of the historic properties in the district as well as document new construction. The documentation for the entire district was to be brought up to the current National Register standards and the boundaries were to be re-mapped based on current National Register practices. For example, many accessory buildings were not counted or documented in 1978, some buildings that were formerly not yet fifty years old have now become eligible, many properties were not photographed or dated, and the map boundaries were based on distance from

    CHAPTER XVII. RAILROAD AND INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT. 1841-1860. On the 4th of March, 1841, the Whigs of Keene fired a salute of one hundred and fifty guns in honor of the inauguration of William Henry Harrison as president of the United States. The Sentinel of April 7, shaded with heavy black lines, announced his death. A meeting of the citizens of Keene nominated Charles L. Putnam, a young lawyer who had recently come to town, for postmaster under the new administration. He was appointed, and the office was removed to the first door south of the Cheshire House. For a long term of years, down to about 1850, Elec­ tion Day-the first Wednesday in June, the day of the meeting of the legislature-was a very enjoyable holiday. This year it was celebrated by a gathering of 1,000 to 1,200 persons, pupils of the district schools and others, on the banks of the Ashuelot river, where they indulged in a feast of "'lection cake," listened to speeches and music, and spent the day in social enjoyment. On the same afternoon, Gen. James Wilson, who had been appointed surveyor general of Wisconsin .and Iowa territories, was given a complimentary dinner at the Chesh­ ire House, previous to his departure for the West. Hon. Thomas M. Edwards presided, Gen. Wilson made an ele­ gant speech, toasts were drunk, and other short speeches were made. The valley road up the Ashuelot river from Gilsum to Marlow was opened this year, 1841, connecting with the Beaver brook road, built in 1837, from Keene to Gilsum, and giving an easy and pleasant route to Newport, thirty­ three miles.

We think of them waiting for the call to arms, Fighting to save their families and farms; We picture the furrow where the dropped plough lies, The women watching them go with quiet eyes. Is it because they died so many springs Ago that we forget the other things They did from day to day? They must have wept, Laughed, talked of the future. I think they kept Their dreams tended as gently as their corn, And planned great things for children yet unborn. And as I watch the spring unfold each year, I think that they held beauty almost as dear As freedom. The battle won, they heeded her command, And planted dogwood in their promised land.

    UNITED PARISH OF AUBURNDALE Report on Sanctuary History and Design A Resource for the Study and Process of Sanctuary Renovations September 2015 Prepared by Sherwood Norton Working Draft 6.0 9/15/2015; Not for general distribution Please discard prior drafts. Preface A church building communicates the story of the vision, mission, and expression of its faith community. Wisely planned, maintained, and appropriately changed over time, it can shape worship and enhance the ministry of its members and to the community. Poorly designed and maintained, it can detract from the identity and purpose of its congregation. This is the story of the church building of the United Parish of Auburndale – the gathering place where God and people meet. The way the dynamic character of this religious space is organized can be read to understand the reasons for its design, evolution, and change. It is anticipated that this story can enable an appreciation of the building’s sacred spaces and of understanding of tradition becoming innovation, and innovation becoming tradition. It is designed to provoke curiosity, be a catalyst for discussion, and inform a process for change. _______________________________________________________ © United Parish of Auburndale 2015 i Contents Page The Story of the UPA In the Beginning… 1 A Meeting House of Their Own 3 Building Expansion 1878-1892 16 From Meetinghouse to Church Home to Sanctuary 23 1907 Renovations 25 Centennial Celebration 36 Later Additions 40 A Vision Fulfilled 43 The Church’s Presence 47 National Recognition

Thomas was m2tde a freeman in Lynn, Massachusetts, 1 7 May, 1 63 7. In the division of land in Lynn in 1638, according to the Quarterly Court in Salem, Massachusetts, he received forty acres. He was an active and prominent citizen, a man of ability and property. He was one of the first settlers of Reading, Massachusetts, or as it was then known, Lynn Village, to which he came ca. 1640. Tradition has it that he was influential in having the town named Reading at the time it was incorporated in 1 644, which would indicate his connection with the Parker family of Little Norton, England.
