  • The Industrial Revolution Comes to Antebellum St
    Sleepers Awake! The Industrial Revolution Comes to Antebellum St. Johnsbury Several challenges confronted the E. & T. Fairbanks Company as it industrialized antebellum St. Johnsbury. Key among them were access to raw materials, transportation, labor, capital, and markets. The fact that the Fairbanks Company prospered and grew is testimony to its success at meeting these challenges. By Allen Yale t. Johnsbury was like many rural communities in the opening de- cades of the nineteenth century. At this time Vermont was in Swhat Brook Hindle called “the wooden age,” and what Jared van Wagenen referred to as “the golden age of homespun.” At St. Johns- bury, two tributaries join the Passumpsic River: The Moose River joins the Passumpsic from the east about one and a half miles above where Sleepers River enters from the west. Rapids and falls punctuated the course of all three rivers. In this age of water power, these potential mill sites often developed into mill villages. In St. Johnsbury, several small mill villages contained gristmills, sawmills, potasheries, fulling and carding mills, blacksmith shops, coopers’ shop, and tanneries, as com- monly found in rural villages of the time. Sleepers River was the site of the growth of an industry that would make St. Johnsbury famous.1 An event of major significance to the future industrialization of St. Johnsbury happened in 1815, when Major Joseph Fairbanks and his family arrived and acquired a mill site on Sleepers River. Fairbanks did not waste time getting established. That summer he and his sons cleared the “mill grounds and by October had the saw mill and gristmill in suc- Vermont History 69 (Symposium Supplement): 116–121.

  • Freeze-Up Ice Jams
    ICE JAM REFERENCE AND TROUBLE SPOTS Ice Jam Reference Ice jams cause localized flooding and can quickly cause serious problems in the NWS Albany Hydrologic Service Area (HSA). Rapid rises behind the jams can lead to temporary lakes and flooding of homes and roads along rivers. A sudden release of a jam can lead to flash flooding below with the addition of large pieces of ice in the wall of water which will damage or destroy most things in its path. Ice jams are of two forms: Freeze up and Break up. Freeze up jams usually occur early to mid winter during extremely cold weather. Break up jams usually occur mid to late winter with thaws. NWS Albany Freeze Up Jam Criteria: Three Consecutive Days with daily average temperatures <= 0°F NWS Albany Break Up Jam Criteria: 1) Ice around 1 foot thick or more? And 2) Daily Average Temperature forecast to be >= 42°F or more? Daily Average Temperature = (Tmax+Tmin)/2 Rainfall/snowmelt with a thaw will enhance the potential for break up jams as rising water helps to lift and break up the ice. A very short thaw with little or no rain/snowmelt may not be enough to break up thick ice. ** River forecasts found at: http://water.weather.gov/ahps2/forecasts.php?wfo=aly will not take into account the effect of ice. ** Ice jams usually form in preferred locations in the NWS Albany HSA. See the “Ice Jam Trouble Spots” below for a list of locations where ice jams frequently occur. Ice Jam Trouble Spots **This is not an all inclusive list, but rather a list of locations where ice jams have been reported in the past.
