CECIL CouNTY.-M Mahan's History of
Maryland, (page 92) describes Cecil county
thus
Cecil county was created i'll 1874. by the
proclamation of Governor Charles Calvert,
which described its bounds to be ''from the
mouth of the Susquchanna river down the
eastern side of the bay to Swan point; thence
to He'll point, and so UP Chester river to the
head thereof" These bounds were slightly
varied by a proclamation issued few days
afterwards, and so remained until they were
finally ascertained by the Act of l706, chap
Sd, which enacts 'that Cecil county shall
contain all the lands ON the north side of the
Sassafras river and Kent county, and shall be
bounded on the east and north by the bounds
of the province, on the west by the Susque-
hanna and the bay, and on the south by the
Sassafras river and Kent county"
