The Colony of Maryland Founded in 1632

[@igabbi9155]

Couldn't seem to stay focused when reading about Colonial Maryland, so I went hunting for video. This gave me all the information I need for my project and so much more. Thanks!!! :)

Lord Baltimore gave acreage to my ancestor Sir Anthony LeCompte in the 1600s. LeCompte Bay and Castle Haven is the result. I’m proud of my heritage.

Man, I would love to go digging in Maryland's archives. I have an ancestor who was a judge in Kent County in the 1600s and he had an Ordinary for awhile. He was a vestryman also, and I would dearly love to know everything there is to know about him. This video did tell me some things I didn't know, such as MD being the second colony and what the courthouse might have looked like, so it was well worth watching!

[@n40tom]

Inu no Taisho where in Kent County was your ancestor from. I also was from Kent County.

[@claytonecramer]

Archive of Maryland is online and very complete.

[@brennazell2911]

Im surprised that Charles Calvert, Lord Baltimore the first wasn't mentioned. Cecil's father. Charles Calvert was the one who requested charter to colonize Maryland. And Queen Henrietta Maria also wasn't mentioned.

[@whoknowsidont.5147]

I live here.. ST Mary's County MD. Very painfilled for me

[@sharongauss9298]

My ancestor was granted the land where Fort McHenry is now

[@BrandyTexas214]

My ancestors started out in Maryland and Pennsylvania, w Virginia area then each generation slowly moved west prob along the national road. Super crazy

[@amybonham9493]

My family arrived on the Ark and Dove voyage. Some were indentured. Census shows that for many years, the servants aka slaves that my family owned could read and write. Years later, a great uncle freed his slaves/servants and gave them farmland.

[@robertdunkes3499]

I thought the one eyed Boh man was the leader and the Utz girl was the queen and all the town's people ate steamed crabs and beer for breakfast lunch and dinner

[@lindsm01]

recently i found out that Lord George Calvert of Baltimore (Cecil Calvert being his son) is about my 22nd great grandfather! i am related through his daughter Anne Calvert and obviously it just goes on and on from there! super cool to know i am a (distant) descendant of royalty! can you believe my ancestors started in Maryland and i was born in Oklahoma?! crazy!

[@amybonham9493]

One of my family names is Burgess. I am a descendant of Col William Burgess who was one of the founders of London Town. I would like to visit London Town someday, and specifically to learn more about the tobacco and slave entrepot London Town was, and more about William Burgess' plantation properties and the slaves who lived and worked there.

[@stevenbayer167]

I am a direct descendant of Garrett Van Sweringen and would love to know more about him. I hope to visit St. Mary's in the near future.

[@amiebrewer562]

[@amiebrewer562]

We should get online I have many cousins in the Vermont area that are also decendants of Garrett

[@markkaminski2416]

Read Michener's Chesapeake. It gives a good view of the Maryland colony.

[@amybonham9493]

Very well researched.

[@jaimecalvert7186]

Just found out George & Leonard are my grandfathers. I live back in North Yorkshire!

[@amybonham9493]

Mine too!!!

[@bluesudanese7241]

. Maryland was the second colony but was the first proprietary colony. Calvin wanted Maryland to be a colony so Catholics can profitability rent the land for others.Indentures servants provided cheap labor but they were free to go then their contact was fulfilled. Catholics controlled government but it was a little bit of them. Resentment grew and Lord Baltimore switched the governor from a Catholic one to a Puritan one, soon after religious tolerance was the law.

[@lsandblego923]

It was the second southern colony not the second colony

[@hmm3597]

My grandmother being born in Dorchester in 1630 was a indentured servant they were protestant being from England, so people were living in that area before 1634.

[@beberodriguez4160]

Sudani you have a jumbled his-story where are you getting your his-story revisionism from???? You didn't listen commentary nor do you have the facts Catholicism was not regimented religion. .. although the Jesuits settled those lands... please research thoroughly before posting you ASSumptions.

I may be mistaken, but didn't the Religious Toleration Act allow freedom for all Christian faiths, but the death penalty for non-Christians? So much for toleration.

[@chrisfields7700]

Indentured Servants did not "mostly" go on to start their own families and farms. Most indentured servants died during their time as a servant because they were worked extremely hard during the time they were indentured generally leading to premature death during their time serving. So, not they didn't usually live to start families and farms.

[@Joshvaze]

About half did. The estimate is 30-50% either escaped or died before their contract was up.

[@KarnaksDreamofLife]

Have you ever been to Maryland if not you mite not herd of Baltimore a city here.

[@jtc2366]

My 7th great grandfather Samuel Blackmore was granted the land that the capital sits on today.

[@kiwi0x717]

I got this for school-

[@skydancerswearingen1888]

this is a lie the English did not found the area the Dutch did and the swedes and natives and free black folks... but oh no all history has to be about the bloody English What about Garrett Van Swearingen or Amos Standgr or Abigal Castion

[@ladyd104]

Right. They also keep saying we're a southern state /colony but we're a boarder state, considered northern

[@Wadiyatalkinabeet_]

⁠@@ladyd104 You’re wrong and they’re right. Maryland is below the Mason Dixon line and that’s defined as Southern by the US government, and it was by the English/British government too when they controlled the colonies. You didn’t have to join the confederacy to be considered, “Southern.” Remember, Maryland and Delaware were both slave states until 2 years after emancipation proclamation. While they also stayed loyal to the Union, although that was also due to the Federal government restricting their state rights at the time. Maryland is a mixture of both Southern and North culturally, and while the Mason Dixon border states aren’t generally considered Dixie, they are considered geographically Southern.

[@Wadiyatalkinabeet_]

False, the English did.

[@n40tom]

I was taught it was 1634 . ? I lived on the Eastern Shore for thirteen years I miss it .

[@BmorePatriot]

tackless It was actually 1632. 1634 was probably when the state got its official name.

[@--EL]

that was kind of the indians to build homes for them so they could transition into their own homes easier
