YThe town was mis-spelled in the Whipple Family Bible, but the county was not. Bernardston was part of Hampshire county until 1811 when Franklin county was carved out of the northern part of Hampshire county. YYou will find Bernardston in Franklin county today. In 1784 it was in Hampshire county. Suggest changing [YI11539 ] birth placeYcounty from Franklin to Hampshire with a note about the 1811 re-assignment of Bernardston to Franklin county."
