The first settlements within the limits of the town of Richmond, VT were begun by Amos Brownson and John Chamberlain with their families in 1775 on what is called Richmond Flats on the south side of the Winooski River (then part of Williston). In the fall of 1775 they abandoned the township as it was so unprotected from both the Indians and the British. They returned to Richmond at the end of the Revolutionary War accompanied by Asa and Joel Brownson.
