| Info | Milon Davidson was born in New Hampshire on November 28,1834. He worked on his fatheršs farm and went to school. At the age of ten, he had to work all year, and went to school only during the winter term. At the age of eighteen he was able to go to school both the fall and winter terms. He worked so hard that his health was bad and he had to stay out of school for two years. After he recovered, he went to Kimball Union High School and then went on to Dartmouth at the age of twenty-four. He went to classes there and, in the winter, taught school. He graduated in 1862. Mr. Davidson also had some teaching jobs in New Hampshire and Vermont. On November 28, 1864 he married Greta E. Andrews and was called to Townsend to take charge of Leland and Gray Seminary in 1874. After retiring, Milon Davidson, on August 23, 1897, died in his bed. The cause of his death was "congestion of the lungs." Milon Davidson had been a member of the executive committee and treasurer of Leland and Gray, treasurer of Windham County creamery, director in the Brattleboro and Whitehall Railroad, and Superintendent of the Newfane Schools. Finally, Greta Davidson went blind and died in 1936, at the age of ninety. After Mrs. Davidsonšs death the house went to her daughter Lula D. Osgood.
