History

The Historical Society partnered with the Calvert County branch of the NAACP and Jefferson Patterson Park and Museum on a project to preserve the oral histories of African Americans in Calvert County.  Several African Americans were interviewed. A substantial amount of invaluable history was captured via a licensed videographer. Each interview can be found on the Calvert County Historical Society’s website.
