(A123) ALLEN WOOD BOUTELLE Joseph ALLEN and Sarah BOUTELLE of Bakersfield and
Enosburg, Vt., were my great-great-grandparents. Sarah BOUTELLE was the dau. of
Jonas BOUTELLE and Lucinda ADAMS of Enosburg; however, the Vermont VR. of her
birth lists her father as James. For proof of her marriage to Joseph, you’ll
have to have more luck than I have had. However, the Enosburg Center
Congregational Church records do refer to “Joseph Allen and his wife Sarah.”
They were married about June of 1841. The ALLEN descendants of Josiah3 ALLEN and
Mary READE of Bridgewater, Mass., m. 25 Dec. 1707.

(A123) Sarah BOUTELLE was b. at Enosburg. Vt., 4 Feb. 1860. The death
record for Jonas (see Vt. VR.) gives his age, birthplace, and par. The Vermont
Historicall Gazette, Vol. II, gives him as an early settler at Enosburg, and
provides some interesting details of his life. Unfortunately all the
transcribed birth records or his ch. have transformed “Jonas” to “James.” The
death records for two ch. of Jonas, Polly and Thomas, gives his name correctly
and also supply his wife’s name Lucinda.
Jonas appears at Enosburg in all the census records from 1810 through 1850,
but it is difficult to locate because his surname is given such creative
renderings in the census indices as BOULETTE, BAUTELL, BANTELL, and BOUTLETT.
In 1850 it appears he was living with his dau. Sarah and her husband Joseph
ALLEN. I am developing a file on the BOUTELL/BOUTWELL family in America.
