Which state was part of New York?
Vermont. New York and New Hampshire fought over the area that is now Vermont (then called the New Hampshire Grants), and eventually, in 1764, New York won.The victory was short-lived, however. While New Hampshire and New York were fighting over Vermont (the New Hampshire Grants), the governor of New Hampshire had gone ahead and sold pieces of the land to settlers, some of whom founded towns on the land.When New York won the battle over the New Hampshire Grants, it declared that all land sales made there by the New Hampshire governor were invalid. In other words, New York reclaimed all the land the settlers bought for itself.The settlers rebelled against New York's government, and in 1777 set up the Republic of Vermont -- essentially making Vermont into an independent country -- which later joined the Union and became the U.S. state of Vermont.

How might a person born in Vermont in 1797 also be born in New Hampshire?
Vermont was considered a part of New Hampshire for many years. At one time, western Vermont was considered part of New York! From 1778-84, Hanover and a number of towns in Grafton County seceeded from New Hampshire. They flirted briefly with the idea of forming a separate state together with a group of Vermont towns--"New Connecticut" would have been the name and Dresden, the corner of Hanover where Dartmouth is located, would have become the capital. However, they settled on union with Vermont as a more practical way in which to assure association with their friends across the river. They were admitted to the state of Vermont in 1778. After much conflict, they finally dissolved ties with Vermont, and, in 1784, joined the New Hampshire state legislature. (From the history of Hanover NH hanovernh.org) I started studying my genealogy several years ago, and the 1880 census records are very helpful. I assume that you have a known ancestor whose father (or mother) was born in Vermont. Just remember the census taker did not always get things right. He may have questioned someone else living in the household, such as a child or boarder or even a neighbor. I often come across information that contradicts information from another source. Do you have more than source that states the ancestor was born in Vermont?
