Potter's Field Described Amid Old Maryland Almshouse History
The notice recounts a parcel once tied to Frederick County almshouse efforts and Montevue, detailing land adjacent to the road from Pradecley toward Carrollerweek. It notes a 1825 Maryland act authorizing Levy Court to fund homes for the poor, with the tract described as part of Frederick city and later used for housing the homeless. The piece cites trustees and officials connected to the property and mentions evolving use up to the Montevue Hospital era.
