Honor Roll: 14 North Main Street, Town of Alburgh, Vermont

The Town of Alburgh is located in Grand Isle County, Vermont. It is the last municipality before entering Canada and going through customs at Noyan, Quebec. In 1891 the town changed the spelling of their name to Alburg at the recommendation of the U.S. Board of Geographic Names. The Board recommended that all municipality names ending in -burgh be changed to -burg for standardization. In 2006 the town changed its name back to Alburgh.
