Warren, Washington County, Vermont
This township lies in latitude 44°, 6';
longitude 40°, 11', in the south-west of Washington County. The
town formerly belonged to Addison County, and was annexed to
Washington County, by an act of the Legislature, October 28,
1829. The charter was granted November 9, 1780, to John Throop
and associates.
The lots were drawn by 70 slips numbered
from 1 to 70, put into a hat, with 70 other slips with the names
of one of the grantees, or of a public right, to be drawn, on
each, put into another hat, and both hats shook to the
satisfaction of all present, when a paper was first drawn from
the hat with names, and then a paper from the hat with the
number of the lots. The town is bounded north by Waitsfield and
Fayston, east by Roxbury, south by Granville, Addison County,
and by Lincoln, Addison County. By act of Legislature, 1824,
four tiers of lots were set off from Lincoln to Warren. There
were two divisions of land in town of 70 lots each.
