section on the history of Huntington)
John FITCH, Esq. was born in 1754 in Coventry [Tolland County], Connecticut. 
He was a soldier in the American service in the war of the Revolution, for 
which he latterly received a pension from government, up to the time of his 
death. He was representative to the legislature from this town [Hungtington, 
Chittenden County, Vermont] several years, and for some years justice of the 
peace, and also constable of the town. In other respects he was not a man of 
much mark, being quiet and unobtrusive in his ways. He [John FITCH] married 
[Miss] Anna BUEL, daughter of Major Elias BUEL, original proprietor of Buel's 
Gore, and had several children. He [John FITCH] died in 1850, aged 
ninety-five, his wife having preceded him several years.
