Why is the western part of Maryland part of the main state instead of West Virginia or PA?

Author: admin  |  Category: western maryland

Maryland is only about 3 miles wide at Hancock.

In 1632, British King Charles I granted Caecilius Calvert, Baron of Baltimore, all land south of latitude 40°N and north of the Potomac River on the mainland and north of Watkins Point on the Delmarva Pennisula for his Maryland Colony. In 1681, his son, King Charles II, granted William Penn all land west of the Delaware River between of the latitudes 39°N and 42°N and also the land within 5° west of the Delaware Bay for his Pennsylvannia Colony.

These overlapping grants naturally lead to conflict between the two colonies. In 1732, Delaware and Pennsylvannia agreed to a boundary settlement in principal. In 1763, the two colonies engaged Charles Mason and Jeremiah Dixon to survey a compromise boundary. Mason and Dixon set the western boundary line at latitude 39°43'N, well south of Philadelphia yet north of the Potomac River. The Mason-Dixon line eventually divided those colonies that had outlawed slavery from those that permited slavery.

The Maryland panhandle may not make much sense today, but hundreds of years of conflict gave Maryland this strip of land and no one wants to renew the conflicts of old.

Busy Without Checks

Author: admin  |  Category: western maryland

It seems like I’ve been going 100 mph this week, but my to do list doesn’t have hardly any checks on it. One of the few that I do have was the second half of Tyler’s session (the first half is here ). In retrospect we did his sessions completely backwards. We got all of his outdoor stuff done on a freezing (and I mean freezing) cold day in December. We couldn’t get all of his sports stuff done that same day though, so we did those indoor shots on a beautiful March day. I always try to get a f

Progress on Oil of ‘Job well done’

Author: admin  |  Category: western maryland

I finally laid the grass in. I really like the grass. When I look at it, it makes me want to take off my shoes and run barefoot in it! It looks so cool and thick and soft. I’ll be adding a few blue highlights to it, then calling the grass done (maybe). I’ve been fiddling with the sky. I added the green grass color to it at the very top, but there is something else that needs to be done. I studied the sky on Sunday for awhile when we drove to Augusta to pick up my two watercolor paintings from t

Wild keeps slim playoff chances alive

Author: admin  |  Category: western maryland

ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) - The Minnesota Wild are fully aware that one more loss could ruin them. That much was evident by the inspired desperation they showed Friday night. The Wild finally figured out Miikka Kiprusoff with three goals on 10 shots in the first period of a 4-0 victory over the Calgary Flames that kept their slim playoff chances alive. Andrew Brunette, Cal Clutterbuck and Owen Nolan scored in the first for the 10th-place Wild, who moved within two points of idle eighth-place S
