Vital Records of Dover, Vermont

These vital records were transcribed by Helen A. Shaw, with assistance from Mike Lyman.

Mrs. Shaw generously offered to donate her recent work to NewEnglandAncestors.org. She writes in the introduction:

"Dover, Windham County, Vermont, was originally part of Wardsborough (later spelled Wardsboro) but, due to the rugged terrain, it was difficult for residents to travel between the two settlements for administrative meetings. Thus, of geographic necessity, the area was divided into two quasi-independent towns which were designated the 'North' and 'South' districts. In 1812 the town was officially separated from Wardsborough, North District and was renamed Dover."
