Cabot is a New England town located in the northeast corner of Washington County, Vermont. The population was 1,547 at the 2010 census.[3] It contains the unincorporated villages of Cabot Village, Cabot Plains, Cabot Factories, South Cabot, East Cabot, Molly's Pond (named after Molly, the wife of Indian Joe[4]), and Lower Cabot.

History

The town was named by settler Lyman Hitchcock for his intended bride.[5]

By actual count, three hundred men from Cabot were eligible to serve during the Civil War. One hundred forty-five (48%) volunteered. Most served in units mustering in St. Johnsbury: the 16th, 3rd and 4th Vermont Regiments. Forty-five were killed, for a fatality rate of 31%. Furthermore, it is likely that most of the rest suffered non-fatal casualties. Seventeen of these dead are honored by name on a war monument which stands in town; the others were not known to those who erected the monument.[6]
