A history Of the waterfront of
Georgetown, its bridges and ferries.
and the rise and fall OF its commerce.
was detailed to members of the George
town Citizens Association last night by
william A. Gordon. one Of the Oldest
living native-born residents.
The meeting was In celebration Of the
l66th anniversary of the town and city
OF Georgetown. Many members of the
oldest Inhabitants Association and Of
historical societies were present to hear
the address OF Mr.. Gordon. who has de-
voted many years of his life to re-
search and study Of the town that once
was the trade metropolis Of the Eastern
|sesboard.
In its heyday.. Mr., Gordon, said.
Georgetown was the shipping and trade
center for a great territory extending
westward beyond the mountains and
northward to the great lakes. The old
roads and trade trails from this vast
country led to Georgetown. and 1t was
q leading port Of entry and embarka-
ton in the West Indian and coastwise
trade. 1t fourished as a seaport until
after the civil war, and up to the days
OF great railroad and steamship de-
velopment.
rhe talk last night was confined by
ferries. and bridges, because. he said,
of the great interest Of Georgetown in
the bridge proposition at this time.
II was the second given by Mr.. Cor
don on the history of the old town. The
first dealt with the period OF its great
prosperity, and It's growth as the cen
ter OF the West Indian trade.
Gives Chronological Statement.
The speaker started with a chronology
cal statement of Georgetown history.
When the province OF Maryland was
first divided into countless he said. the
Georgetown site was in st. Mary's. In
1858, at another division II was In
Charles county. In 1896 Charles county
was divided and the site was In Prince
George county.
In i74S all Of that territory on the
east bank of Rock creek was made O
part of Frederick county, and George.
town was In Frederick county. until
Montgomery county was created by the
Continental Assembly.
It was the. only county thus created
and extended from Rock Creek to the
mouth of the Monocacy. Georgetown
was the metropolis of this new county
until the present territory. of the Dis
trict of Columbia was coded to the Fed
erai Government as the seat OF the
