PREFACE

The Inyentory of Federal Archives in the States is one of the products
of the werE_of the Survey—ofmFederal Archives, which operated as a nation—
wide project of the Works Progress Administration from January 1, 1956 to
June 50, 1957, and has been continued in Vermont since that date as a state
project of that Administration. .

The plan for the organization of the Inventory is as follows: Series I
consists of reports on the administration of the Survey, acknowledgments,
and general discussions of the location, condition, and content of federal
archives in the states. Succeeding series contain the detailed infor—
mation secured by workers cf the Survey, in inventory form, a separate
series number being assigned to each of the executive departments (GXCGDt
the Department of State) and other major units of the Federal Government.
Within each series No. l is a general introduction to the field organiza—
tion and records of the governmental agency concerned; the succeeding
numbers contain the inventory proper, separate numbers being assigned to
each state in alphabetical order. Thus, in each series, the inventory for
Alabmna is No. 2, that for Arizona To. 5, that for Arkansas No. 4, etC.

For each local office information regarding each series, or unit of
related records, is presented in the following order: title, inclusive
dates ("to date" indicating an open file at the time the information was
secured), general description of informational content, description of v
the system of filing or indexing (if any), a statement of frequency and
purpose of use, form_of the-record itself (bound volumes, sheets in
folders, etc.), linear footage, description of the containers, physical

- condition of the records (not stated if satisfactory), location by room
number or other identifying information, and finally, the number of the
Form 585A on which this information was originally recorded by a Survey
worker and from which it was abstracted for the Inventory. This TOTE is
on file in The National Archives. When it contains substantial infor-
mation on addenda sheets which has not been included in the mimeographcd
abstract, indication of this is given by use of the reference "See addenda."

In Vermont the work of the Survey was under the direction of Judge
Edward K. Gould, Regional Director for Heine, New Hampshire, and Vermont,
with Mrs. Ella C. Newman as his assistant, and with Hr. Philip Griffin as
supervisor in Vermont from its inception until June 50, 1957. Since that
time the work of the project has been under the supervision of Mr. Frank
Mesorve. This inventory of the records of the Department of Tar in-
Vermont was prepared in the Rutland office of the Survey and was edited
before final typing by Dr. Henry P. Beers of the Division of War Depart-
ment Archives of The National Archives.

' FORT ETHAN ALLEN
(COLCHES‘I‘ER)
Fort Ethan Allen was designed to form a link in the chain of military
posts along the northern frontier. It was through the efforts of United
. States Senator Redfield Proctor of Vt., formerly Secretary of War, that
Congress in August 1892 passed a bill to establish a military post at a
point near the northern frontier. An act of the state legislature
approved Nov. 18, 1892 gave consent to the United States Army to acguire
by purchase, gift, or otherwise, such lands in the towns of Colchester
and Essex, in the county of Chittenden, State of Vermont, as the United
’ States Army may select for the establishment and maintenance of a mili-

' tary post.‘ In compliance with this act citizens of Vermont in Dec. 1892
purchased and gave the United States Government about 600 acres of land
in the aforesaid towns, two miles from Essex Junction and six miles from
Burlington. The site was immediately accepted and Captain Guy Howard

_ was appointed constructing quartermaster. Buildings for a four company
cavalry post were erected; and the post was named Fort Ethan Allen in
honor of the "Hero of Ticonderoga." The first garrison arrived Sept.
28 and 29, 1894 and consisted of Troops C,E,F, and G of the Third Cavalry

 Commander’s Office, Fort Ethan Allen 5
in command of Major L. T. Morris. On June 22, 1896 the United States
Army purchased about 190 acres and through further acguisitions the site
now contains about 790 acres.

At the present time, there are twenty—eight buildings of brick and
stone, with slated roofs, including four cavalry stables, four double
officers' quarters, four single officers' quarters, four double barracks,
a hospital, guard house, bakery, work shop, a water tower 80 feet high
built of white vermont marble, and several other buildings used for
storehouses. The parade ground covers about 50 acres, and there is an
excellent rifle range of 1000 yards. There are now about sixty officers
and twelve hundred and six enlisted men stationed there. The training of
good cavalrymen and field artillerymen have comprised the main activity
of this post from its beginning. Records were discovered and surveyed
in five buildings within the military post. All current records of the
post are maintained safely and accessibly in modern fireproof filing
equipment or in fireproof storage vaults. The older records of all
departments are safely kept and in good order.
