| Notes |
- In 1808, he located in Pittsford,Vt, and bought one hundred acres of land lying south, or a little southwest, of the farm now owned by Marshall Thomas. There he built a frame house in which he resided eleven years. He then bought the farm upon which he afterwards lived and died. He cleared the most of the cultivated land on that farm and built the house and barn that are on it(1886).
- From the Pension record of his uncle Ebenezer Burditt:
I, Thomas Burditt of Pittsford in the county of Rutland and State of Vermont aged seventy-three years last January bring duly sworn depose and say that Ebenezer Burditt late of Pittsford deceased was my father’s brother. I was a native of Lancaster Massachusetts where my father formerly resided. My uncle Ebenezer removed from Lancaster as I was informed before I was born. My uncle Ebenezer came to Lancaster with a team and moved my father from Lancaster Ma to Grafton Vermont in the winter or Spring of seventeen hundred and ninety-six [1796]. I was told that my uncle Ebenezer first moved from Lancaster Ma to Sullivan NH and that he afterward moved into Gilsum NH where he married Ruth Loveland – They moved from Gilsum NH to Grafton Vermont where they resided when my father moved from Lancaster Ma to Grafton Vt. Israel Loveland was the father of Ruth Loveland and he and his family removed from New Hampshire as I was informed before my father came to Vermont. I was well acquainted with Israel Loveland and his family from with Ebenezer Burditt and his family, from the time my father moved to Vermont in seventeen hundred ninety-six [1796] when I was fifteen years old until the decease of the said Ebenezer and Ruth his wife. I resided in Lancaster Ma until I was fifteen years old and I never heard of any other persons residing in that town by the name of Burditt except my Grandfather’s family – I have often heard my father and my Uncle Ebenezer talk of my uncles Daniel and Ebenezer being in the army in the war of the Revolution that my Uncle Daniel was wounded in battle that his leg amputated and died on the service. I removed from Grafton to Pittsford where I now reside in 1808 – My Uncle Ebenezer moved from Grafton to Pittsford in the Spring of Eighteen and thirty and died at Pittsford the same Spring. After the death of my uncle Ebenezer my Aunt Ruth his widow married my Uncle Joshua Burditt with whom she lived until his death in the Spring of 1853. My Aunt Ruth Burditt died at Pittsford in January last. I was [intan____] acquainted with my Uncle Ebenezer and his family and often visited them. After my first acquaintance with them in seventeen hundred and ninety-six - and further say not.
