Mason and Dixon Line Surveyed in 1763
The Mason and Dixon line between Pennsylvania and Maryland was surveyed in 1763 by Charles Mason and Jeremiah Dixon to set a boundary later linked to the North South divide. An army of axmen cut a 30-foot-wide road, stones weighing 500 pounds marked the line at intervals, and English markers bore Penn’s and Baltimore’s emblems. The line has been remarked and restored, with a 1903 state funding effort by Pennsylvania and Maryland to locate missing stones.
