ELK LANDING AND THE HOLLINGSWORTHS...

In short, the British tried to attack Elkton but the newly born country of the United States was able to push them back. I was going to build a page for this topic, but there is already a very very informative site at: ElkLanding.org . After reading the main page of the site, check out the menu to the left where it says "Research"!! They have a TON of very detailed, downloadable PDF's. MY KIND OF SITE!! More information than the average reader needs, but for those info hogs, this site does a great job.

What I didn't see on this site was the George Washington papers that relate to Elk Landing. THE General George Washington (1st U.S. President) asked COL. Henry Hollingsworth for supplies while his men was at Vally Forge. Here are the letters exchaged by the two gentlemen: Washington / Hollingsworth Papers
