Historic Vergennes Photographs

The Bixby Library has partnered with UVM’s Center for Digital Initiatives to allow online access to 794 historic photos from our History Room Collection. The images comprise 122 years of history in Vergennes, Vermont’s oldest city.

Featuring a wide range of topics, which date from the 1866 Civil War parade to the 1988 Bicentennial, the collection provides a comprehensive and unusual look at small town life in northern Vermont. These photographs document the full visual spectrum of history in Vergennes, from businesses, industries, and transportation to natural scenery, paintings, and portraits of people who once walked the city’s streets.
