Shore Blogging

Since I have a great time digging for history around the shore, I’ve set up a number of blogs that allow me to share some of the material I’m working on around the Peninsula.  This page will help readers navigate around the history related blogs I’ve set up.  Also below a listing of my blogs, you will find research links that I have found interesting and helpful.

• Old Delmarva Photos Weblog - If you’re Interested in old photos from around the Delmarva Peninsula, check out this site.  We’ll try to post fascinating old picture each week on this photo blog.
• Reflections on Delmarva’s Past – On this weblog you will find articles on the history of the Peninsula,  both old and modern, and the personal stories of its people, first and secondhand. Installments may include pieces on folkways, places, events, the built environment, people and about any aspect of our past that catches my attention.
• Someone Noticed - This one is different than our other sites since we use it to blog for a cause, preservation advocacy.  It originated in the summer of 2008 when the town of Elkton attempted to sell some of its Maryland Public Open Space to a developer.  Although they eventually gave up on that idea we use this one to blog for preservation advocacy and as a way to provide the 411 on the Mayor and Commissioners of Elkton when local media isn’t covering issues.
