History

Molly's Falls Pond in Cabot

The town was named by settler Lyman Hitchcock after his wife, Sophia Cabot (no relation to Venetian explorers John and Sebastian Cabot). Lyman Hitchcock became in 1788 the first town clerk of Cabot.

By actual count, 300 men from Cabot were eligible to serve during the Civil War. Of these, 145 (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.
