A Brief History of Kent County, Maryland
Maryland's second oldest county was
founded in 1642 by settlers who named it for the county they
left in England. Living and working on the water are very
important here. The Rock Hall Museum shows Native American
artifacts and nautical relics, and the Waterman's Museum,
also in Rock Hall, has exhibits on oystering, crabbing and
fishing.
Many historic homes line the waterfront
of Chestertown, which is the county seat and located on its
namesake, the Chester River. It is the home of Washington
College, the only college to which George Washington gave
permission for the use of his name. Following the Boston Tea
Party in 1773, the angry citizens of Chestertown threw a
shipload of tea from the British brigantine, Geddes, into
the river. Each May, the town's residents gather and hold a
weekend festival to reenact the Chestertown Tea Party.
Near Chestertown, visit area wildlife in
the 3,000-acre Remington Farms refuge or take a boat ride
and visit each of the 31 marinas in the county.
