MARGARET’S CHURCH, ANNAPOLIS 1692 - 2017 PHOTOS & MAPS & DIRECTIONS FOLLOW TEXT DESCRIPTIONS !1 Mack’s Memories & The First Tours — 1996 - 1998 In 1996, Folger McKinsey (Mack) Ridout, Sr. (1925 - 2011) published his feature article Driving Down St. Margaret's Road, in the October & November 1996 issue of THE SPIRE, St. Margaret’s Church then bi-monthly print newsletter. Driving turned out to be part of a series that appeared throughout 1997 & 1998, becoming known simply as Mack’s Memories. Mack’s writings were followed in 1997 & 1998 by a series of St. Margaret’s Church driving tours that he and brother Orlando (Lanny Ridout) IV (1922 - 2017) led throughout the Broadneck Peninsula. Mack’s stories, the tours, and his love of the heritage where he grew up, encouraged present-day history and archival efforts at St. Margaret’s Church. For St. Margaret’s Church 325th anniversary in 2017, the tours started by Mack Ridout have been expanded and are available on a virtual basis. Actual driving tours can follow. 1. The 1895 Church — 1601 Pleasant Plains Road The 1895 church was built for $1,200 following the 1892 fire that destroyed significant portions of the 1852 church that had fallen into near total disrepair. It is the third church at the present location, the first built 1825—1827. The 1986 Enhanced Restoration enlarged and completely renovated the church. Significant interior renovations have been made since 1986 and loving care of the church continues.

(ALTSCHA, Inc.), dba Four Rivers Heritage Area The Mission of the Four Rivers Heritage Area is to advance, support, and promote the natural, historic, and cultural resources of the region. Designated as a Certified Heritage Area (CHA) in 2001, the Annapolis, London Town & South County Heritage Area, Inc. (dba Four Rivers: The Heritage Area of Annapolis, London Town & South County or “Four Rivers Heritage Area”) stretches from Sandy Point State Park at the Chesapeake Bay Bridge, extending through southern Anne Arundel County, to Rose Haven at the Calvert County line, encompassing the Severn, South, Rhode, and West Rivers. From 18th-century buildings, both grand and modest, in the National Historic District of downtown Annapolis, to swaths of pristine landscapes and maritime communities, the Four Rivers Heritage area strives to honor the stories of those who have called it home for centuries. Southern Anne Arundel County heritage tells the story of generations of farmers and watermen whose lives have been shaped by the Chesapeake Bay and the rich farmland that surrounds it. As home to hundreds of cultural, natural, and historical resources, the Four Rivers Heritage Area plays an integral role in building capacity and connecting the sites together. The creative synergy in its collaborative approach helps to lift up the historic preservation and the organizational insights of professional museum directors.

  • Mack Ridout Version 1997 1998
    Mack’s Tours of the Broadneck Peninsula Folger McKinsey (Mack) Ridout, Sr. Note: This document was never completed for publication by the author and the contents are not necessarily historically accurate. They appear with minimal editing. These notes include memories and stories from a master story-teller who cared for St. Margaret’s Church, the Broadneck Peninsula, and for future generations by sharing a life lived on the land he loved. Mack Ridout conducted tours of the historic Broadneck Peninsula for St, Margaret’s Church in 1997 and 1998 following publication of his article Driving Down St. Margaret's Road that appeared in the October/ November 1996 issue of THE SPIRE, St. Margaret’s Church newsletter. First Stop — Broadneck Parish The location of the first church in the Broadneck Hundred (Broadneck Peninsula) is really not known. Col. John Hammond in 1695 gave a tract of 200 square feet (sic) of land on Deep Creek for building a church. Two Tracts of land (glebes) were given by Edward Gibbs for building a church in 1707. These totaled 155 acres touching Deep Creek on the north side and bordering Westminster Towne on the east. This town bordered the Magothy River on the east and was a Puritan settlement. The church members of Broadneck Parish were permitted to use the Meeting House for their services until their church was built in 1707. In fact members of the Church of England had been meeting since before 1682 for worship and well before the Act of 1692 establishing the 30 parishes of Maryland. Broadneck Parish was established in 1692, its Parish boundaries determined, a minister, Edward Topp, secured in 1696, a lay reader, Philip Jones, was licensed by the Assembly of Maryland in 1695.

  • Broadneck Council of Communities, Inc
    BROADNECK COUNCIL OF COMMUNITIES, INC. RECOMMENDATIONS FOR ANNE ARUNDEL COUNTY’S GENERAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN 2008/2009 PUBLIC REVIEW DRAFT February 27, 2009 The 2008/2009 DRAFT GDP reflects the tremendous efforts of many people, the Planning and Zoning staff, the Planning Advisory Board, the Special Advisory Committee and the citizens who have made suggestions and asked questions. The County has asked all of the citizens to review the GDP Draft and make comments and recommendations. The Broadneck Council of Communities, Inc, (BCC) has taken this responsibility very seriously and provides the following review. CHAPTER ONE – INTRODUCTION The BCC recommends that: • Because the Small Area Plans (SAP) are a crucial part of the Planning Framework, they must be the guidelines for land use development within the County. The introduction specifically cites that the SAPs (that were developed from and amended the 1997 GDP) are part of the “Planning Framework”. As such, these SAPs should be a defining force for the new GDP since there has been no effort to update and revise them as a part of the current GDP process. There must be a compelling and overwhelming reason to not comply with these standards in the new GDP. CHAPTER TWO – OVERVIEW OF ANNE ARUNDEL COUNTY The BCC recommends that: • This new GDP should include a segment on accountability for attainment of the key elements from the ’97 Plan particularly as reflected in Part 1, (pgs 22-44) to summarize where these recommendations were accomplished, if they have been superseded or if they need to be carried over to the new GDP.
