From the book "History of Addison County, Vermont," H. P. Smith, ed., (D. Mason & Co., Syracuse, NY, 1886), page 256: "Nathaniel Munger and his son-in-law, Nathan Case, from Norfolk, Connecticut, began a settlement south of Preston, on home lot no. 43 in 1787. Case was a blacksmith, and both of the men had a house on the lot. A few years later Mr. Case moved to no. 12 home lot, where Dudley Munger had begun a clearing. Nathaniel Munger occupied and improved the place where he settled until his death in 1830. Edward Munger located on lot no. 44, south of Nathaniel, in 1788 or 1789; a few years later he sold it to Alpheus Brooks, who occupied it until his death. Jonathan Munger about the same time began a settlement on no. 41; it was subsequently, and for many years, owned by Captain David Chittenden, and then passed to David Hooker; now owned by Edward Seeley. Edmund and Jonathan Munger removed to Ohio before the beginning of the present century. Previous to 1792 Dudley Munger, a brother of those named, had made improvements on no. 12, which he (p. 257) sold in the year mentioned to Nathan Case, and removed to no. 45, next south of Edmund Munger. On this lot Phineas Phelps had previously built a log house. Mr. Munger built the present two-story dwelling, and at an advanced age went to live with his son, Hiram Munger; the farm is now owned by Samuel N. Brooks. Reuben Munger, another brother, came here about 1789 and located on lot no. 40 of the home lots; he died there in 1828 at the age of seventy-two. Seymour Sellick, from Salisbury, Connecticut, settled on no. 46, which belonged to the original right of his father, Bethel Sellick; it adjoined Dudley Munger's; the latter married Mr. Sellick's sister. Both of these men built two-story houses, which were raised on the same day; the Sellick farm is now owned by William and Otto Moore. These seven families last named constituted the neighborhood of Munger Street, and, as seen, came in within a short period and located within fifty rods of each other, their lots being fifty rods wide and a mile in length. The numerous Munger families were among the most respected citizens in town. (p. 259) Bill Munger settled about the same time on no. 1, east of Boardman; here he resided until his death in 1822, aged sixty-eight; this and the preceding lot were subsequently occupied by Ichabod M. Cushman and are now occupied by John Halladay [the previous paragraph says Boardman settled about 1788]. (p. 260) Nathan Case settled about 1792 on lot no. 12, where Dudley Munger had begun work, and died there, leaving the farm to his son Abel, who later removed West. (p. 261) Home lot 2 was set off as a 'school lot.' In 1802 the selectmen leased it to Nathan Lee, who cleared it and lived on it until 1817 when he sold it to Reuben Munger, one of the most extensive land-holders in the early history of the town. In 1824 Munger deeded the lease to Ebenezer W. Allen."
"Nathan Case was also a man of prominence, living on home lot 12 from 1792 until his death in 1844, at the advanced age of eighty-four. He was a great worker, always stirring about and always in a hurry. And he sometimes illustrated the proverb "The more haste, the less speed." One morning in the busy season of haying his wife informed him that they were out of flour. He hurriedly saddled his horse and drove to the village. When he reached the village he found he had forgotten to bring the grain that he had come to get ground."
