A town made from a gore

Mount Holly was put together on October 31, 1792, from Jackson’s Gore, which Vermont had granted on February 23, 1781, and from pieces of Ludlow and Wallingford. It organized on November 19, 1792, and Abraham Jackson was its first representative in the legislature, in 1793. The Mill River rises in the southern part of town, west of the Okemo Mountain ski area, and flows northwest beside Route 155 toward East Wallingford and Otter Creek. Route 140 comes over from Wallingford and ends at Route 103 inside Mount Holly.

The mammoth by the tracks

In 1848, men working on the railroad uncovered the tusk, teeth and bones of a woolly mammoth beneath the tracks in Mount Holly, among the first scientifically documented fossil finds in Vermont. In 2014 the state named that mammoth’s tooth and tusk the state terrestrial fossil of Vermont, and they’re kept at the Mount Holly Community Historical Museum in Belmont. Belmont, about six miles west of Ludlow village, has a small general store, and its green, at the center of a cluster of historic buildings, holds a Baptist church, a community library and the historical society’s museum. On Church Street, just northeast of the Baptist church, the Green Mountain Cottage began as a farmhouse around 1853. Bart Chadburn, an immigrant from Quebec, bought it with a 50-acre farm in 1878 and began taking in tourists in the 1880s, and his family kept the tourist house going until 1943. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2021.

Crowley cheese and a house called Corbu

About a mile and a third southwest of Healdville, the Crowley Cheese Factory has stood on Crowley Lane since 1881. A. Winfield Crowley started the company to turn the surplus milk of local farmers into cheese, which was sold at the Healdville railroad depot, and three generations of the family ran it for 85 years. The company is believed to be the oldest surviving cheese company in Vermont and one of the oldest in the nation in continuous operation, and the factory still makes cheese by its original methods and recipes. Far newer, the Anthony Scoville House on Dawley Road was built from 1964 to 1968 by the young architect Anthony Scoville and his fellow Yale students. He named it Corbu for Le Corbusier, whose ideals it follows: a square house with an overhanging upper story and a 20-foot concrete tower rising at its center. From 2006 to 2009 the town’s Planning Commission had Arrowwood Environmental survey Mount Holly’s natural communities and wildlife habitats, and copies of the report and maps are kept at the Town Office and the Town Library.

Mount Holly people

Horatio Earle, born on a Mount Holly farm in 1855, moved to Michigan and became known as the “Father of Good Roads.” He introduced the law that created Michigan’s State Highway Department, and his page credits him with the world’s first mile of concrete road, laid on Woodward Avenue in Detroit in 1909. Julian Cook, born here in 1916, led his battalion of the 82nd Airborne Division in the daylight crossing of the Waal River in September 1944 and received the Distinguished Service Cross. The snowboarder Hannah Teter, born in Belmont in 1987, won Olympic gold in the halfpipe at the 2006 Winter Games in Turin and silver at Vancouver in 2010. Joseph Kinney Jr., born in Mount Holly in 1799, sat in Wisconsin’s first constitutional convention in 1846.
