Mecklenburg Town Established in Berkeley County
The town of Mecklenburg is created from Thomas Shepherd’s layoff of about fifty acres on the Potomack river in Frederick County. The act establishes the town, grants privileges to freeholders once lots are built upon, and notes population growth from under three hundred to over seven hundred by 1778. A swine law and local governance details are discussed, with commentary on roads and safety, plus local notices about a dental firm, conventions, and plans for an iron foundry in the area.
