In 1894 Edith Roosevelt, wife of Theodore who was then a US Civil Service Commissioner, visited Bennington, VT. She was accompanied by her sister-in-law, Bami Roosevelt, a maid and five children aged 6 months to 10 years old. They rented 3 rooms at the exclusive Walloomsac Inn and stayed for 3 weeks, quickly becoming a part of the social scene in Old Bennington. In this program, Bob Tegart will share some of the details of their stay in town.

Recently moved to Vermont from Central New York, Bob Tegart is past President of the Bennington Historical Society and Administrator of the Bennington Museum Regional History Room. He also serves as a commissioner on the Bennington Historic Preservation Commission. Bob studied history at the University of Rochester and the Graduate School at SUNY Geneseo.

As we begin to commemorate the 250th anniversary of the founding of Vermont and the United States, it is good to remind ourselves of the critical events that took place in Arlington, Vermont.

During the critical first years of the young republic, no other town hosted as many critical meetings or key players as Arlington. Other towns are known for the important meetings, skirmishes, or battles that happened, but Arlington is where the day-to-day business took place. The governor and his council of advisors met here, and the great seal of the Republic of Vermont was inspired from the view in front of his home.

Arlington in the Revolutionary War will summarize some of the important events and people that helped to define the character of Vermont for years to come. The program will be held in the Performance Center at the Arlington Common, 3938 Vt. Rte. 7A, Arlington, Vermont.

The presenter for this event is Bill Budde, curator of the Russell Vermontiana Collection of local history for Arlington, Sandgate, and Sunderland. He is also the Historian of the 368-year-old Scots’ Charitable Society and a professional genealogist.
