Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Faithful subjects of the English crown, Jesuits, and entrepreneurs first settled in Charles County in the early 1630s. The area quickly sprouted into Colonial-styled plantation life of distinct Southern charm. The currency of the day was tobacco, even for payment of taxes and doctor bills. Through the War of 1812 and the Civil War, the mainly agricultural economy of the county was devastated. But as time passed, plantations became farmsteads, Native American trails became roadways, and the railroad created new town centers, such as Waldorf and La Plata. In the earlier years, the county’s self-sufficiency was strongly displayed when the public school system and fire departments were started through private donations. For most of its life, Charles County’s only employer not associated with agriculture was the Indian Head Naval Proving Ground, now known as the Indian Head Division, Naval Surface Warfare Center. It is still ranked as the county’s number one employer. Tobacco still reigned as the cash crop of choice until 2000.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New from the Maryland Historical Society, the story of Southern Maryland’s Native people. Here at last is the story of Southern Maryland’s Native people, from the end of the Ice Age to the present. Intended for a general audience, it explains how they have been adapting to changing conditions—both climatic and human—for all of that time in a way that is jargon-free and readable. The authors, cultural anthropologists with long experience of modern Indian people, convincingly demonstrate that all through their history, Native people have behaved like rational adults, contrary to the common stereotype of Indians. Moreover, in the very early Contact Period at least, some English settlers respected them accordingly. Unfortunately, although they never went to war against the English, they were driven nearly out of existence. Yet some of them refused to leave, and, adapting yet again to a changing world, their descendants are living successfully in Indian communities today.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The first Charles County was created by Cecil Calvert, Second Lord Baltimore, Oct. 3, 1650. It included all the present County as well as some of the counties of Calvert, St. Mary's, and Prince George's." Charles County today is located in southern Maryland between the Patuxent and the Potomac Rivers. Dozens of knowledgeable volunteers contributed information on a variety of topics, including agriculture and the tobacco industry, transportation and the Potomac, towns and villages, religion and churches, government, Black history, education, sociality, legend and folklore, and genealogy. The reader is introduced to many towns, and given brief sketches of Port Tobacco, Benedict, La Plata, Bryantown, Indian Head, St. Charles, and Waldorf. Black history has been compiled from the fragments of oral and written data to give a glimpse from that perspective. Newspapers, clubs and auxiliaries, and reminiscences are also touched on. The text is further enhanced by photographs and illustrations, poems, recipes, a bibliography, and a subject index. The chapter on genealogy sites numerous sources for research, and provides the names of early settlers, a guide to deciphering old documents, the Census of 1850 (by district) listing free heads of families, lists of late 1700s' marriages grouped by minister, and an 1878 list of physicians.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chronicles 300 years in the development of Charles County. The area known today as Charles County lies along a wide curve of the Potomac River, just south of Washington, D.C., and across the river from George Washington's boyhood home in Virginia. It has been steeped in history since Captain John Smith explored the area in 1608. This commemorative book marked Charles County's 300th birthday by chronicling its beginning in the 17th century, its growth and development in the 18th century, and its maturity in the 19th and 20th centuries. It is illustrated with ancient maps and portraits of historical figures, from Charles Calvert, third Lord Baltimore, for whom the county was named, to the Lincoln conspirators, who fled across the county in their desperate escape bid. Researchers will find an abundance of valuable material: a thorough list of notes and references is followed by appendices which include a description of the original boundaries of "old" Charles County (which included parts of St. Mary's, Calvert, present-day Charles and Prince George's counties); a list of Charles Countians of prominence; bibliography; 1790 U.S. census for Charles County, and a comprehensive index of names, places, and subjects. This work is cited in the Harvard Guide to American History.
