==History==

One of the New Hampshire grants, St. Albans was chartered by Colonial Governor Benning Wentworth on August 17, 1763 to Stephen Pomeroy and 63 others. Named after St. Albans in Hertfordshire, England, it was first settled during the Revolution by Jesse Welden. The war, however, delayed further settlement until 1785, when many others began arriving. Farmers found the rich, dark loam suitable for cultivation, as well as for the raising of cattle, horses and sheep. Butter and cheese were produced in great quantities.〔(Austin J. Coolidge & John B. Mansfield, ''A History and Description of New England;'' Boston, Massachusetts 1859 )〕 It also became known as "Railroad City," home to a major depot, operations center and repair shop of the Vermont and Canada Railroad.〔(Virtual Vermont -- St. Albans )〕 When the village was incorporated in 1859,〔(Advantages, Resources and Attractions of St. Albans, Vt., 1889 )〕 it had an iron foundry, a manufacturer of freight cars, and a large number of mechanic shops.〔
The northernmost engagement of the Civil War, known as the St. Albans Raid, occurred here on October 19, 1864. In 1902, the City of St. Albans was incorporated, comprising two square miles (518 hectares) within the town of St. Albans. Today, it is a tourist destination noted for its Victorian and Craftsman style architecture built during the railroad era, when over 200 trains a day passed through.〔(St. Albans Historical Society )〕 St. Albans is a research target for genealogists, as European immigrants heading for the United States would sometimes land at Halifax, Nova Scotia or Montreal, then take a train through the border crossing here. The National Archives (NARA) lists for St. Albans cover the period 1895-1954.〔(Genealogical lists -- St. Albans, Vermont )〕
