Note: "History of Pawlet, Rutland, Vermont"
William HANKS settled early, coming from Suffield, Conn. His sons who located here were Oliver, Jonah and Arunah. Oliver held the position of justice fifty-one years and was much respected; was also in the Legislature four years; his son Galusha settled at West Pawlet. Joseph operated the grist-mill which his father built on the Pawlet River, but removed to West Virginia in 1816. Arunah succeeded to the homestead; he was the father of seventeen children and died in 1830.
Pawlet (VT) One Hundred Years
HANKS, WILLIAM, from Suffield, Conn., settled on the present homestead of Alex. Clayton. He was an enterprising though eccentric man. He planted a vineyard north of his house, which, for a while, was promising, but the boys would steal his grapes, which so vexed him that he let it run down. On many places in West Pawlet a vine derived from this vineyard still flourishes. He built a grist mill on Pawlet river just below the Frary bridge. He died in 1807, aged 79; his widow was burned to death in 1809, aged 73. His sons, who settled in this town, were Oliver, Joseph and Arunah.
