Dear Darlene,

Thanks for the references and information! Can you tell me if the Elkton
Historical Society and the Historical Society of Cecil County are two different
organizations? The Historical Society of Cecil County that I visited last
year was in Elkton on Main Street. Where would the Elkton Historical Society be?

Warmly,
Karen
