Josh Cohen, former mayor of Annap- olis and now principal of Polity Partners, a clean energy consultancy, offered that estimate. He doesn’t like giving specifi c numbers, however, because there are so many factors that affect the bottom line. In the county, where farmland is highly attractive for solar development, those fac- tors include, fi rst, the overall solar energy potential of a property, which is affected by its region; annual climate; whether it’s sloped, sunny or shaded; and how close it is to a grid.

  • History of Linden Depot Genealogical Society of Montgomery County Crawfordsville Library – March 13, 2018
    History of Linden Depot Genealogical Society of Montgomery County Crawfordsville Library – March 13, 2018 Introduction I realize that I probably do not appear to fit the profile of one who is interested in trains. However, I have always had a love of and a connection to trains. Before she got married, my Grandmother worked as a clerk for the “B&O Railroad” in Baltimore. Later, the train ran behind my Grandparents’ house; when I was a young child, I remember waving to the engineer as the train passed by and he would blow the whistle for me. My grandfather rode that train when he traveled from Baltimore to New York on business, and when I was visiting their house, he would sit on the side of the train where I could see him at the window and he would wave to me as he passed by. Page 1 of 50 I was raised in Ellicott City, Maryland, the site of the oldest surviving train station in the United States and one of the oldest in the world. The town of Ellicott City, which was originally known as Ellicott Mills, is 13 miles west of Baltimore. Ellicott City Station was originally built to serve the horse- drawn “railroad” cars that traveled to and from the Baltimore Harbor. The original wooden rails were eventually replaced with durable iron rails. The station still stands and is now a branch of the B&O Railroad Museum. Page 2 of 50 My name is Elizabeth Carroll Hendrickson; I am a direct descendent of Mary Clare Carroll, the sister of Charles Carroll, Barrister.
