John Howard lived for a few years at Pittstown, N. Y., and then
six or more at Addison, Vt., as a farmer ; went to Burlington in
181 2, and established the Howard Hotel which he kept for the next
thirty-five years of his life. No man was more prompt, or would go
farther, to do a kindly act to a neighbor or any person in distress
than " Uncle John" as he was familiarly and affectionately called by
the many who knew his good qualities. His wife was a very
estimable lady, and lived to the age of 93 years, retaining to a
remarkable degree her faculties of mind and body. She died in
1865, in Burlington, bearing to her grave the love and esteem of all
who knew her. [Child's Chittenden Co. Directory.
