MARCH 29 2007 Frederick County Mills ACCOMMODATION FACTORY
MARCH 29 2007 Frederick County Mills ACCOMMODATION FACTORY ( ) David Foute advertised wool carding at Accommodation Factory, Dumb Quarter extended, Frederick-Town Herald, June 23, 1827. ADAMS FULLING MILL (9) Frederick Brown advertised wool carding at 6-1/4 cents per pound at the old establishment of Mr. Adams, about 2 miles south of New Market, Frederick-Town Herald, May 11, 1831, p. 4. He had offered fulling and dyeing there (Mrs. Adams’), Ibid., August 20, 1825. This was presumably the fulling mill shown on the 1808 Charles Varlé map on Bush Creek, 0.33 mile north of the present Weller Road, SE of Monrovia. The 1860 Bond map showed the Mrs. H. Norris wool factory, while the 1878 atlas showed Mrs. Norris with a grist and sawmill. ADLER ROPEWALK (F) A ropewalk operated by John Adler in 1819 was on South Market Street, Frederick. The building was occupied in 1976 by Federated Charities (See, Ralph F. Martz, “Richard Potts,” Frederick Post, May 11, 1976, p. A-7). ADELSPERGER MILL CO (5) This steam foundry and machine shop was listed in the 1860 census of manufactures with $14,000 capital investment and 25 employees; annual output was $5000 in castings and $25,000 in machinery. ADLUM STILL ( ) John Adlum advertised to sell two stills, 106-gallon and 49-gallon, Frederick-Town Herald, August 14, 1802. AETNA GLASS WORKS (7) Thomas Johnson purchased some of Amelung’s machinery and built a new Aetna Glass Works on Bush Creek, hauling sand from Ellicott City in empty wheat wagons. He later built another works on Tuscarora Creek, The Potomac, p. -
THE WOODWARD FAMILY of ANNE ARUNDEL and PRINCE GEORGE's COUNTIES, MARYLAND 1703-1850 a Revised Genealogy

Anderson...................................................... 85 FORWARD The Search for My Woodward Connection y search for my maternal grandmother's Woodward family connection began in 1997 when I Mwas compiling my parents' (and my own) memoirs and genealogy, My Years and Yesteryears. My grandmother, "Gram", came from a long line of old Anne Arundel County families: Chaney, Cadle, Anderson and Meek1 whose histories were well documented, but the pedigree of her maternal grandmother, Susan Woodward Cadle, remained unknown. Since the Cadles were living at the time of the 1850 census on land that was originally part of, or adjacent to, the Colonial-era property Woodwards Enclosure, a relationship to that family seemed reasonable. I also knew of Gram's early ties to Severn Crossroads Church2 and Schoolhouse, both of which she attended as a child. However, I failed to find any evidence of a Woodward connection in the published genealogies available to me, nor did a close examination of headstones in the Woodward plots in Baldwin Memorial Church cemetery provide any clues. -

PHYSIOGRAPHIC DIVISIONS OF THE EASTERN UNITED STATES V.L.E.- cw IEng'and O.A.-Older Appalachian Mountains C.P.-Coastal Plain Y.A.-Younger Appalachian Mountains P.-Piedmont A.P.-Alleghenv Plateau I.L.-Interior Lazoland GEOLOGY AND WARS A.Neglected Factor in Wars Within the Continental Limits of the United States of America BRADFORD WILLARD* G EOLOGY has had direct and indirect, active and passive G~influences in winning (and losing) battles and military campaigns within the continental limits of the United States of America. Why should I, a really peaceful individual, write on such a bellicose subject? First, because I have not always been so pacific, having served with the American Expeditionary Force in France during the old war; and, second, I am by profession a geologist. But, what is this geology? Perhaps it is years since you attended lectures on the subject, or maybe you are one of the lucky ones who escaped such an ordeal. At least a brief recapitulation may be tolerated. Geology is earth lore, a relatively new science among man's explorations of his environment. Modern geology has been developed during the last two hundred years. Its application to human needs is hardly half so old. Concerned chiefly with the surface of the earth and its outer crust, the geologists leave to the geophysicists and to the seismologists the investigation of what lies deeper. There are many subdivisions or ramifications to earth science. Physiog- raphy is concerned with the earth's surface features, their origin and characteristics. Through mineralogy and petrology, respec- tively, the geologist attempts to understand the composition and origin of minerals and rocks. -

Soldiers Delight Assoc. Prof. Sarah Penniston-Dorland Soldiers Delight Natural Environment Area 5100 Deer Park Road Owings Mills MD 21117 GPS 39.40944 76.83537 The rocks of this region form an assemblage of upper greenschist to lower amphibolite facies metasedimentary rocks with intercalated mafic and ultramafic rocks. These rocks are part of the Liberty Complex. At this stop we will have a brief look at some of the metamorphosed peridotites (now serpentinites) near Soldiers Delight. The ultramafic (and nearby mafic) rocks likely represent a small proportion of oceanic lithosphere (Iapetus) caught up in the Taconic accretionary event. The peridotites, now serpentinites, likely originated as mantle rocks. -

LIBRARY PREFACE After several years of careful research of such records as were available this record of the Virginia-Maryland branch of the Pier ponts is presented to the members of that branch and to those of the public who may BE interested in acquiring such knowledge as is contained therein. I desire to register my deep appreciation to Mrs. Pierrepont Moflatt of New York City for her permission to use the data pub lished BY R. Burnham Moffatt, in his work entitled, “ Pierrepont Genealogies from Norman Times, which contains a most painstak ing account of the family on the other side of the Atlantic. His work is among the standard volumes of genealogies in the Library of Congress. The early data of the family on this side of the Atlantic has been culled from the voluminous records found in the records of Anne Arundel County, Maryland, and from the records of the Friends Meeting of Maryland and Virginia. -
