Introduction The Proctoriana Collection is research notes, photographs, and printed material on the town of Proctor, Vermont, collected by Otto T. Johnson. The collection was a bequest to the Vermont Historical Society from the Otto T. Johnson estate in 1968. Several issues of Marble Chips were added to the collection in 1993 from a donation by Sanborn Partridge. The Proctor Historical Society donated 25 more issues of Marble Chips for the period 1967-1973, in 1997 (MSA 186). The papers are housed in fifteen boxes and several oversize folders and occupy 15 linear feet of shelf space. The collection also includes a large number of glass plate negatives which have been separated for conservation reasons and are now stored in 9 boxes occupying 5.75 linear feet of shelf space. Biographical Sketch Otto Johnson was born in Proctor, Vermont, April 9, 1889, the son of Erik and Christina (Olson) Johnson. He graduated form Proctor High School in 1910 and from the University of Vermont in 1914. After working for General Electric in Schenectady, New York, he moved to Washington, D.C., where he was employed by the Bureau of Standards, and worked to earn a Master of Science and Master of Arts degree from George Washington University.

In addition to the marble industry Johnson researched the establishment of the town of Proctor in 1886, and the history of local institutions such as the school, the churches, and societies and clubs. He also collected information about events such as the Blizzard of 1888, the Flood of 1927, and the marble strike in 1936. Some prominent names in the collection are Peter Sutherland, Edgar L. Ormsbee, Fred Patch, and members of the Proctor family. Johnson was not only interested in writing the town’s history but in preserving it, and made an effort to collect publications of Proctor organizations and businesses. The most extensive collection of publications is from the Vermont Marble Company and includes runs of the serial publications Vermont Marble, 1925-1927; The Memory Stone, 1927-1954; and Marble Chips, 1937-1967 (and 1967-1973 donated by the Proctor Historical Society); and copies of trade catalogs, monument designs, epitaphs and lettering; general public relations pamphlets, and some employee related material on worker safety and pension systems. Other runs of publications include the high school newspaper known as the Spotlight and the Sutherland, 1916-1956; the yearbook, Proctorian, 1840-1957 (some skips); the Union Church Yearbook, 1909-1963; the town of Proctor annual reports, 1888-1963; and a few years of the YMCA yearbook, 1903-1915. Johnson also made an effort to collect copies of periodicals that included Proctor-related articles. A valuable source of Johnson’s information on local events was the newspaper and this collection includes many references to area newspapers. There are lists of articles from several newspapers and transcripts of many articles. There are also scrapbooks, the first of which covers the years ca. 1890-1929, and then one for each year, 1930-1952. Other scrapbooks cover scattered years and there are many loose newspaper clippings. There is an extensive collection images of Proctor including negatives, glass plate negatives, and prints. The glass plate negatives have been removed to the VHS glass plate negative collection and can be found in FGA 48-49, and FGB 10-16. Organization The papers have been arranged in series to match Otto Johnson’s chapter headings in his book, The History of Proctor, plus series for miscellaneous notes that do not fit easily in any one chapter, the typescript draft of the book, scrapbooks, serials and publications, and photographs. The series headings are: 1. Pioneer Days 2. The Sutherlands 3. Some Other Early Settlers 4. Early Enterprises at the Falls, Land Transfers and an Account of the Flood

of 1811 5. The Beginning and Struggles of an Industry
