A Brief History of Cecil County, Maryland
Cecil County, which wraps around the
upper end of the Bay, is known for its horse farms,
historic churches and taverns, as well as many miles of
waterways.
The county was founded in 1674 and was
named for Cecil Calvert, second Lord Baltimore and founder
of Maryland. This was an important stop for colonial
travelers such as George Washington and Thomas Jefferson,
who stopped at Rodgers Tavern in Perryville on their way
to and from Philadelphia. Later, the town of Chesapeake
City got its share of travelers as they passed through the
C&D Canal, which connected the Chesapeake Bay and the
Delaware River. In Chesapeake City, you'll find the C&D
Canal Museum in an old pump house and a huge water wheel
used to maintain the water level in the nearby canal
locks. This canal, which is one of the most important
canals in the country, became federal property in 1919.
The Fair Hill Nature and Environmental
Center offers outdoor educational programs for all ages.
More than 750,000 American shad pass through the fish lift
at the Conowingo Hydroelectric Plant each year. It is one of
the nation's largest hydroelectric generating stations and
has a visitors center. Popular local pastimes such as
hunting, fishing, boating and decoy carving are celebrated
at the Upper Bay Museum in North East.
