Good morning lists,
Would anyone happen to know what county "Patapsco Lower
Hundred" is in today?
What cities or towns are now in the area where Lower Hundred,
Baltimore, MD was in the 1790 census?
Does anyone know of a website that shows where the Hundreds
were located?
Thank you! :)
Happy hunting, Helen (DCGS)

I also belong to the Jefferson County Mail list and have seen your posting there. The reason I have not replied is because I don't know of an English Cemetery in Middleway. I know there are several there and one of them is a Masonic cemetery. There are churches around the cemeteries but I don't know what all of them are. I know there is The White Church Parish Hall (apparently there is a cemetery there) address unknown, Middleway United Methodist Church (no cemetery there, that I know of), 7435
