Historic Londontown

Yesterday we visited a restored 18th c. house that is across the river from our anchorage. Had a great guided tour with the museum curator and learned lots of local history. London was a town established by Lord Baltimore so he could tax all the tobacco shipped from this area by requiring it to be shipped from his port. When he lost his influence, the town dwindled and disappeared. Here's a link to their website
