Welcome to St. Johnsbury, VT. St. Johnsbury, VT. was settled by Jonathan Arnold, a Rhode Island native. He built the first frame dwelling in 1787, on a spot at the north end of Main Street now known as Arnold Park. Allen spent a considerable portion of his life in the effort to achieve independence for what is now Vermont, commanding (1770-1775) an irregular force called the Green Mountain Boys, so named in defiance of the New York threat to drive Vermont settlers off the fields and 'into the Green Mountains.
