Worthington, Jessop, Cheston, and others, who according to historian J. Thomas Scharf "built mills within a few perches of each other." Scharf claimed in his History of Baltimore City and County that the works was originally intended for cotton production. Two of the founders of the mill company, Thomas and Samuel Hollingsworth, already owned a plant, the Holly Mill, as shown in the tax list of 1798. The name Gelston Carpet Factory "Holly" was later applied to one of the new generation of mills, the one on Lot No. 4.

Wells II June 2006 This thesis entitled THE HISTORICAL GEOGRAPHY OF RACIAL AND ETHNIC ACCESS WITHIN BALTIMORE’S CARROLL PARK: 1870-1954 by JAMES E. WELLS II has been approved for the Department of Geography and the College of Arts and Sciences by Geoffrey L. Buckley Associate Professor of Geography Benjamin M. Ogles Dean, College of Arts and Sciences Abstract WELLS, JAMES E. II, M.A., June 2006, Geography THE HISTORICAL GEOGRAPHY OF RACIAL AND ETHNIC ACCESS WITHIN BALTIMORE’S CARROLL PARK: 1870-1954 (96 pp.) Director of Thesis: Geoffrey L. Buckley In order to understand the present patterns of use seen in urban green spaces, it is often important to look at the history of the areas being studied. For example, people tend to shy away from parks with a history of racial violence or segregation even after the problem no longer exists. Baltimore’s Carroll Park provides an excellent example of an urban green space with a long history of different policies regarding who could be granted access to the park facilities. From its beginnings as a wealthy estate owned by the Carroll Family, the land being studied here passed into the hands of the private, German- run West Baltimore Schuetzen Association, and later into the possession of the City of Baltimore as what we now know as Carroll Park.

  • Mount Clare, Maryland Location; Baltimore County, in the Center of Carroll Park, Off Washington Boulavard, Between Monroe Bayard Streets
    (NHL SITE OF NATIONAL SIGNIFICANCE Mount Clare, Maryland location; Baltimore County, in the center of Carroll Park, off Washington Boulavard, between Monroe Bayard Streets. Ownership: City of Baltimore; operated by the National Society of Colonial Dames in Maryland, Mrs. William R. Miller, President, Mount Clare, Carroll Place, Baltimore, Mary­ land, 21227. Statement of Significance Mount Clare, erected around 1763-67, is an excellent example of a Southern brick plantation house with superior Georgian architectural qualities. It Is also the oldest and finest extant colonial structure in the city of Baltimore. Mount Clare's existing wings and hyphens, however, are reconstructions that do not follow or resemble the original detached dependencies. History In 175^ John Henry Carroll built a bachelor's house on this plantation; his cottage was probably utilized as one dependency of the later main house, thus giving rise to tradition that Mount Clare was built in 175^» Charles Carroll, the barrister (so-called to distinguish him from his distant relative Charles Carroll, the signer), and brother of John Henry, inherited the estate, and about 1763> on the occasion of his marriage, probably began the construction of the main section of Mount Clare. * Work was still in progress on the house in 1767. The plantation house remained in the hands of the Carroll family until l&kQ. Between that year and the beginning of the Civil War, all of the outbuildings^ including the two dependencies of the main house, disappeared. During the war Mount Clare was used as quarters for Union officers. After 1865 the house was leased by a group of German men who used it as a German beer garden until 1890, when the City of Baltimore purchased the structure and 70 acres of land for a park in South Baltimore.
