Commercial seafood was an important industry that began to appear in Southern Maryland during the 1870s and 1880s. Oysters in particular, along with shad and herring, were important exports in Southern Maryland during the late 19th century. The Rock Point Oyster Shucking House consists of a 1 Vi story concrete block structure erected in 1935 on a narrow peninsula of land extending from the north shore of Neale Sound near the mouth of the Wicomico River.

  • Birding in Southern Maryland Calvert, Charles, St
    Birding in Southern Maryland Calvert, Charles, St. Mary’s and Southern Prince George’s Counties Produced by Southern Maryland Audubon Society Society Birding in Southern Maryland This brochure was especially designed for birders. If you are traveling through and have the urge to bird for a while, we hope this brochure will help you locate some spots local birders enjoy without wasting time looking for them. Our list in the back of this brochure includes some less common sightings as well as resident and migrant birds. If you are a resident birder, we hope you will eventually be able to put a checkmark beside each species. Good Birding! NOTE: Any birds sighted which are not on the checklist in the back of this brochure or are marked with an asterisk should be reported to [email protected]. Species notations, such as preferred habitat and seasonality are listed at the end of the checklist in the back of this brochure. Olive Sorzano 1920-1989 This brochure is dedicated to the memory of Olive Sorzano, a charter member of the Southern Maryland Audubon Society from 1971 until her death in 1989. A warm, generous, kind and thoughtful person, Olive came to represent the very soul of Southern Maryland Audubon. Throughout the years, she held various positions on the Board of Directors and willingly helped with nearly all activities of the growing chapter. She attended every membership meeting and every field trip, always making sure that new members were made welcome and novice birders were encouraged and assisted. Living on the Potomac River in Fenwick, a wooded community in Bryans Road, Maryland, she studied her land and water birds, keeping a daily list of what she saw or heard with her phenomenal ears.

Storehouses flourished near the wharves, and ship building began in earnest during the late 1600’s. Between 1817 and 1937, steamboats carrying freight and passengers stopped at Benedict en route to Baltimore and ports south. Benedict is also an important site on the Star Spangled Banner National Historic Trail (www.nps.gov/stsp/index.htm).
