On June 26, 1958, The Historical Society of Frederick County announced that
it was now in possession of the Jacob Engelbrecht Diaries. Mr. Engelbrecht
recorded local, national and international events in numerous journals from
1819 until his death in 1878. It is a unique record of local deaths, births,
marriages, and just plain everyday tragedies.(The Society has published The
Engelbrecht Diaries again. The new volumes will include more than 100 pages
NOT included when the book was published in the 1970s. It is available
through the society in both book form and on a CD.)
If anyone can add information to these History Moments,
or would like to suggest an item for another calendar day,
please contact me privately.
