Early Port Tobacco
Found these wonderful images in the December 1945 Maryland Historical Society Magazine Vol. XL, No. 4 -
The article is here. Port Tobacco in 1930 - and it appears to look much as it looked when Atzerodt called it home - pretty rustic and with a very interesting old history.... Mr. Barbour who made this sketch used to run the Old Quenzel Book Store in Port Tobacco - and sold quite a few books on the assassination!
We used to stop there occasionally on the Surratt House Booth Escape Route Tours back in the day when we went on a school bus. We also went there on the one and only Atzerodt Escape Route Tour led by Ed Steers back in the day! "The Past is a foreign country...they do things differently there" - L. P. Hartley |
