A short history of Duxbury

In 1880, Emeline Meaker of Duxbury was hanged for poisoning her niece, Alice. The trial received much coverage throughout the country. She was the first woman hanged in Vermont.

Duxbury claimed to be the only municipality in the United States that had an elected position of dogcatcher. However, in 2018, it was determined that holding an election to determine a town's dogcatcher violates Vermont state law, as dogcatcher is expressly an appointed position.
