West Burying Ground/AKA Barber Cemetery in Charlotte, Vermont
I visited West Burying Ground (AKA Barber Cemetery) in Charlotte, Vermont recently. If you want to visit, type in Barber Cemetery into Google Maps to find it. Otherwise, you won’t. Parking to visit was very challenging. There was no good place that felt safe for my car. In the end, I parked in front ofContinue reading “West Burying Ground/AKA Barber Cemetery in Charlotte, Vermont”
Charlotte Center Historic District in Charlotte, Vermont
The Charlotte Center Historic District suffered two major setbacks, which is why it’s an Historic District. The Charlotte Center Historic District was on the original alignment of US Route 7. The first blow was when US Route 7 was realigned. Route 7 is now perpendicular to Church Hill Road. The second came after the CentralContinue reading “Charlotte Center Historic District in Charlotte, Vermont”
Tavern on Mutton Hill in Charlotte, Vermont
Today’s video is about the Tavern on Mutton Hill in Charlotte, Vermont. Fun story about using Google Maps as my GPS. Directions were to turn onto Church Hill Road. Okey dokey. “Turn right onto Tavern Road.” Um, there was NO Tavern Road. There was a Mutton Hill Road to my left. From there was aContinue reading “Tavern on Mutton Hill in Charlotte, Vermont”
Our Lady of Mount Carmel Cemetery: Charlotte, Vermont: Focus on Quinlan Family!
https://youtu.be/8_5JPPyzAnQ Today’s video is the rest of my walk of Our Lady of Mount Carmel Cemetery in Charlotte, Vermont. I found the “largest stone” grave marker of the Quinlan family. You may recall my video earlier this week on Quinlan’s Covered Bridge. Same family. The upper portion of the cemetery wasn’t the quagmire of theContinue reading “Our Lady of Mount Carmel Cemetery: Charlotte, Vermont: Focus on Quinlan Family!”
Our Lady of Mount Carmel Cemetery in Charlotte, Vermont
https://youtu.be/6dokHcAwKts Today’s video is a stroll through Our Lady of Mount Carmel Cemetery, which is directly behind the church of the same name in Charlotte, Vermont. It is not visible from the street, but is very much so from the parking lot. Added bonus: there is a parking lot light near the cemetery, which suggestsContinue reading “Our Lady of Mount Carmel Cemetery in Charlotte, Vermont”
Our Lady of Mount Carmel Catholic Church in Charlotte, Vermont
https://youtu.be/XOWnQjqH-bY Today’s video is on Our Lady of Mount Carmel, which is located in Charlotte, Vermont. It is on Spear Street and very easy to find. (And I LIKE easy to find!!) Parking was easy, too! (Its cemetery out back was not readily visible from the road, but certainly was from the parking lot.) “NestledContinue reading “Our Lady of Mount Carmel Catholic Church in Charlotte, Vermont”
Morningside Cemetery in Charlotte, Vermont
Morningside Cemetery is in a rural area of Charlotte, Vermont. In fact, before I turned onto Morningside Drive, I wondered if Google Maps were sending me down someone’s driveway again! And that’s because there was a barn and plenty of farmland right there. But, no. Although, GM DID try to get me to drive 1.1Continue reading “Morningside Cemetery in Charlotte, Vermont”
Seguin Covered Bridge in Charlotte, Vermont
Today’s video is on the third in my series of the three covered bridges still standing in Charlotte, Vermont. It is known by three different names: Seguin Covered BridgeSequin Covered BridgeUpper Covered Bridge The Sequin name was a misspelling when it was added to the National Historic Register in 1974. Unfortunately, that’s the name that’sContinue reading “Seguin Covered Bridge in Charlotte, Vermont”
East Burying Ground/Bradley Cemetery in Charlotte, Vermont
I visited the East Burying Ground yesterday in Charlotte, Vermont. You’ll never find it by that name in Google Maps, though. GM uses the aka name of Bradley Cemetery. Plus, if you’re heading south on Spear Street, it’ll stop about .25 miles before the actual destination! Ugh. If you’ve driven by the sign that introducesContinue reading “East Burying Ground/Bradley Cemetery in Charlotte, Vermont”
