history
Major Elias Buel was awarded the grant for a Town Coventry, at a point where, due to a measurement error, no more land was available. Therefore, on November 4, 1780, he was given a "flying grant". This enabled him to acquire land that had not yet been taken possession of at that time. He thus took possession of three parcels. Land in Orleans County, now Coventry , Coventry Leg or Coventry Gore (now part of Newport) and Buels Gore. Buels Gore was previously known as Huntington Gore, a triangular parcel south of Huntington.
This land grab was established on October 22, 1788, dated back to the date of the original grant. Buel and his partners had to pay the tax retrospectively for eight years. Buel lost interest and moved to New York.
In 1840, 18 people lived in Buels Gore. There was never a settlement of note, no post office, or representative in the Vermont legislature. Administration is carried out by a supervisor appointed by the state.
