    Notes 
    • Nathan Willard Halladay was placed upon the farm of Erastus Hall near West Halifax, Vt. at the early age of 7, when his father died, and remained there until he was 21.  He was very much attached to the Hall family and this attachment continued through life. He married Sabra Plumb the daughter of Mr. Hall's neighbor James Plumb, and lived in West Halifax both at the Hall and Plumb farms and for a year or two at Wilmington, Vt.
            Returning to West Halifax he with his brother Henry bought a farm and built a tannery upon a branch of North River which was operated under the firm name of Henry & N.W. Halladay until March 1839, when Nathan bought out his brother's interest and continued the business alone until Nov. 2, 1840 when he sold the tannery and water privilege to Charles Goodwin, retaining his farm however which he carried on until 1848. He removed to North Adams, Mass. in 1848 and went into the grocery business at the corner of Eagle and Union St. his partners being Marcena Ballou and John I. Leroy.  This firm bought out the general store of Elliot B. Fuller opposite the hotel in Heartwellville, Vt. and Mr. Halladay devoted the most of his time to this store although making his home in North Adams.
           On June 5, 1850 he sold his farm in West Halifax, to Amos Tucher and on Dec. 23, 1850 he bought of Geo. H. Lowe of North Brookfield, Mass. about 800 acres of timber land at Heartwellville, Vt. with a lumber mill situated on the west branch of the
      Deerfield River, and began the manufacture of lumber.
            At this time he sold out his interest in the North Adams store and bought out his partners in the Heartwellville store.
            In 1851 he removed his residence to Heartwellville and remained there as long as he lived.  He was successful in his business and cut large quantities of lumber which he hauled by teams, marketing in North Adams. He also owned 500 acres of timber land in Stamford, 160 in Woodford and 114 acres in Searsburg, Vt. besides 835 acres in Heartwellville, or about 1600 acres in all. He died at Heartwellville, (West Readsboro) Vt., Aug 25, 1867 aged 59 and his wife Sabra died July 31, 1865 aged 57.
          Both were buried in the cemetery at West Halifax, Vt. [4]
