Man, I would love to go digging in Maryland's archives. I have an ancestor who was a judge in Kent County in the 1600s and he had an Ordinary for awhile. He was a vestryman also, and I would dearly love to know everything there is to know about him. This video did tell me some things I didn't know, such as MD being the second colony and what the courthouse might have looked like, so it was well worth watching!

Archive of Maryland is online and very complete.

My ancestors grandparents was from dochester Maryland in the sixteen hundreds ,they lived on the eastern shore and still have family there.

Lord Baltimore gave acreage to my ancestor Sir Anthony LeCompte in the 1600s. LeCompte Bay and Castle Haven is the result. I’m proud of my heritage.

Couldn't seem to stay focused when reading about Colonial Maryland, so I went hunting for video. This gave me all the information I need for my project and so much more. Thanks!!! :)

That’s my 18th grandfather:)

My ancestor was granted the land where Fort McHenry is now

My ancestors started out in Maryland and Pennsylvania, w Virginia area then each generation slowly moved west prob along the national road. Super crazy

My family arrived on the Ark and Dove voyage. Some were indentured. Census shows that for many years, the servants aka slaves that my family owned could read and write. Years later, a great uncle freed his slaves/servants and gave them farmland.

I live here.. ST Mary's County MD. Very painfilled for me

I thought the one eyed Boh man was the leader and the Utz girl was the queen and all the town's people ate steamed crabs and beer for breakfast lunch and dinner

. Maryland was the second colony but was the first proprietary colony. Calvin wanted Maryland to be a colony so Catholics can profitability rent the land for others.Indentures servants provided cheap labor but they were free to go then their contact was fulfilled. Catholics controlled government but it was a little bit of them. Resentment grew and Lord Baltimore switched the governor from a Catholic one to a Puritan one, soon after religious tolerance was the law.

Very well researched.

One of my family names is Burgess. I am a descendant of Col William Burgess who was one of the founders of London Town. I would like to visit London Town someday, and specifically to learn more about the tobacco and slave entrepot London Town was, and more about William Burgess' plantation properties and the slaves who lived and worked there.

Just found out George & Leonard are my grandfathers. I live back in North Yorkshire!

Im surprised that Charles Calvert, Lord Baltimore the first wasn't mentioned. Cecil's father. Charles Calvert was the one who requested charter to colonize Maryland. And Queen Henrietta Maria also wasn't mentioned.

my great great grandmother was listed in history book of the first 13 colonies she sail from Ireland to Ellis Island to Eastern Shore my cousin has the paper what year she came over

Nice job :)

I saw this in school

Cecil calvert is my dad

recently i found out that Lord George Calvert of Baltimore (Cecil Calvert being his son) is about my 22nd great grandfather! i am related through his daughter Anne Calvert and obviously it just goes on and on from there! super cool to know i am a (distant) descendant of royalty! can you believe my ancestors started in Maryland and i was born in Oklahoma?! crazy!

Great 👌👍

I may be mistaken, but didn't the Religious Toleration Act allow freedom for all Christian faiths, but the death penalty for non-Christians? So much for toleration.

Have you ever been to Maryland if not you mite not herd of Baltimore a city here.

I got this for school-

Indentured Servants did not "mostly" go on to start their own families and farms. Most indentured servants died during their time as a servant because they were worked extremely hard during the time they were indentured generally leading to premature death during their time serving. So, not they didn't usually live to start families and farms.

About half did. The estimate is 30-50% either escaped or died before their contract was up.

⁠@@ladyd104 You’re wrong and they’re right. Maryland is below the Mason Dixon line and that’s defined as Southern by the US government, and it was by the English/British government too when they controlled the colonies. You didn’t have to join the confederacy to be considered, “Southern.” Remember, Maryland and Delaware were both slave states until 2 years after emancipation proclamation. While they also stayed loyal to the Union, although that was also due to the Federal government restricting their state rights at the time. Maryland is a mixture of both Southern and North culturally, and while the Mason Dixon border states aren’t generally considered Dixie, they are considered geographically Southern.

You can tell you don’t know anything about Catholics.

You mean colonist took it over and tortured/ enslaved to death those who lived in the area. Your story is barely even half accurate.
