It is one of at least five locations in Vermont known as Averys Gore (or Avery's Gore), the others being located in Addison County, Chittenden County, Franklin County, and Windham County.〔Vermont Agency of Administration, Public Records Division. ("Localities in Vermont" ). Retrieved February 25, 2014〕 This page deals specifically with the location in Essex County. In Vermont, gores and grants are unincorporated portions of a county which are not part of any town and have limited self-government (if any, as some are uninhabited). The population was 0 at the 2000 census. However, the gore does have a few hundred feet of dirt road and one building or structure, on the North Branch of the Nulhegan River by the Lewis town line. More prominently, Gore Mountain, one of the 50 highest in the state, is in the eastern portion of Averys Gore. Averys Gore is named for Samuel Avery, a Westminster deputy sheriff and jailkeeper. Avery received roughly 52,000 acres (210 km2) in eight separate gores and grants in the 1790s as compensation for land he had owned in a part of the state previously claimed by New York. ==Geography== According to the United States Census Bureau, the gore has a total area of 17.6 square miles (45.6 km²), of which 17.6 square miles (45.5 km2) is land and 0.04 square mile (0.1 km2) (0.11%) is water. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Averys Gore, Vermont」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
