Suggested edit: “George Dart, from New Milford, Conn. came to Monkton in 1789, and bought one hundred acres of land of David Ferris. The original deed is now in the possession of the family, dated June 23, 1789, and recorded in book 2, by Samuel Barnum, June 22, 1790. To pay for this property, Mr. Dart returned to Connecticut and made one hundred axes, valued at £20, which he delivered to Mr. Ferris. He had a family of nine children, two of whom remained in Monkton. The farm is now owned by Charles H. Stone.” (Gazetteer and Business Directory of Addison County, VT, for 1881-82, Hamilton Child, ed., 1882)
