        [Guilder] is a term for a lower class person used in a small region on the New York/Vermont border. It originated in the town of [Granville], after the inhabitants of a nearby hamlet (Guilder Hollow) which is now a part of the greater Granville township. This hamlet was settled by families from Holland lead by a charismatic leader. Eventually, the people who settled in Guilder Hollow ran out of money ([Dutch money] at the time was the Guilder) and these people became dependant on charities and later state aide. The term Guilder used the [settlers] former wealth ironically. It also implies slovenly habits.

        The use of the word has broadened over the years to be applied to anyone of little means and culture. It has also spread to the surrounding communities who have their own take on the insult.
