Hi there,

I am interested in any information about the Stephen Hildreth family that lived in Richmond in the 19th century.  I understand that he once lived in the "Clement Hoyt House."  Can you tell me if that house still exists?  Some sleuthing I did suggests that the address may be 2666 Cochran Road.

Thank you!

Hello again Rachel!

So I found a little more information for you regarding the Hildreths. Abel Hildreth is listed as one of the original proprietors of The Round Church in 1813. He is listed  as a Congregationalist with a donation of 30.00. I also found many Hidreths buried in the Bridge Street Cemetary: Abel, Adeline, Edward, Charlotte, Fred, Hulda and Stephen. I still havent found anything regarding Merrifield or Ladd. I have taken photographs of the stones and would be happy to email them to you if you would like. you can contact me at rhsevents@gmavt.net and I'll email them to you.....

Still hunting
