About Danby, Vermont ![]()
Rutland County
*Area, Population and Density rankings above refer to Danby's relative position among Vermont's 255 civic entities (9 cities, 242 towns, 4 gores and grants). Complete rankings are here.
Grantees were from Nine Partners (now Amenia), New York. Two possibilities exist for the name, each honoring different men: Thomas Osborne, Earl of Danby and Leeds, or Basil Fielding Earl of Denbigh. The second possibility is dependent on 18th century spelling being more phonetic than precise. Denbigh would have been pronounced "Denby" or "Danby". Site of one of the earliest (and the deepest) marble quarries in the US.
