Book excerpt: Excerpt from First Records of Baltimore Town and Jones' Town: 1729-1797 It may not be amiss to state that the records herein contained were printed in the main from the First Book of Baltimore Town. Viewed through modern spectacles the handiwork of the recordmaker of 1729 is a queer production. In giving that handiwork to the general public - now upward of two hundred years after it was begun - an effort has been made to preserve the eccentricities of the English of the day, or, perhaps, as better expressed, the liberties taken with the English of the day have not been disturbed by the transplanting process. They are given very accurately in this - their typographical counterpart. The pen has been faithfully followed by the type. The one object was to produce the records - spelling, punctuation and all, and to portray, as far as possible, general characteristics. To an extent, at least, this has been accomplished. Nothing has been taken from; nothing added to the old book. It stands for itself. But its spelling - at times unique; its erratic punctuation (or lack of punctuation, as the matter may be); its quaint phraseology, though transferred from fading lines to printed pages, tell a story of early Baltimore that can be nothing but historically correct. Events were written at a time when history was being made; when the foundation of the now great City of Baltimore was laid. The records begin with the first session of a Commission which was authorized to select a site for Baltimore Town. It is the doings of this Commission, or rather the Commissioners of Baltimore Town, relative the establishment of boundaries, laying out of streets, taking up of lots, etc., from 1729 to the incorporation of the City 1797, that are chronicled. The printing of these archives will, if it accomplishes no other good, prevent wear and tear upon the originals, for it has not been possible to refuse all requests by those who desired to use the old books and manuscripts in search of information concerning early Baltimore. Likewise the perpetuation of the records is assured even though the originals should, by any lamentable mischance, be destroyed or lost. There are many other reasons that appeal to the writer as arguments why the First Records of Baltimore Town should be given to the public; hence the public has them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Economic and social life in the upper Chesapeake during the colonial period diverged from that in southern Maryland and Tidewater Virginia despite similar economic bases. Charles Steffen's book offers a fresh interpretation of the economic elite of Baltimore County and challenges the widely accepted view that the life of this privileged class was characterized by permanence, stability, and continuity. The subjects of this study are not the tiny knot of Tidewater aristocrats who have dominated scholarly inquiry, but the numerically predominant but largely unknown "county gentry" who constituted the bedrock of the upper class throughout Maryland and Virginia. Because most Tidewater aristocrats shunned the northern frontier of Chesapeake society, Baltimore proves an ideal location for exploring the uncertain world of the county gentry. Most of the men who climbed the ladder of economic and political success in Baltimore, hoping to establish dynasties, watched with dismay as their children slipped back down that ladder in the later colonial years. The absence of entrenched oligarchies gave to the upper levels of county society a striking degree of fluidity and impermanence. In chapters dealing with the plantation workforce, the landed estate, the merchant community, and the established church, Steffen demonstrates that this openness pervaded all dimensions of the life of the gentry. Steffen's analysis of the complicated social and political realignments produced by the Revolution provides a fitting conclusion to his study, for in the independence struggle the openness of the gentry was most clearly revealed. In its vivid portrayal of the men and women who comprised the bulk of the gentry, From Gentlemen to Townsmen sheds new light on the complex economic and social life of the Chesapeake.
