Did the Vermont flood contribute to the Mississippi flood of 1927?
No, since the Mississippi flooding came in the spring of 1927, and the Vermont flood was in very early November that year. There is no connection between the two floods except it may well have been the size and extent of the Mississippi flooding that put the question of federal aid for disaster relief in the public consciousness as it had never been before. Vermont profited from this in the sense that for the first time in history it took federal help for relief in the form of a $2.654 million grant from Washington for the reconstruction of bridges and highways. A 2007 book -- The Troubled Roar of the Waters -- about the flood explains how this all worked out.
