HELLO .

THE SPECULATION REGARDING THE RELIGIOUS FAITHS ON THE EASTERN SHORE OF
MARYLAND HAS PROVEN INTERESTING .

 MY SINCLAIR LINE RESEARCH IN PERSON AND FROM OTHER SOURCES HAS REVEALED A
LONG HISTORY IN THE CECIL COUNTY , MD. [NORTHERN EASTERN SHORE ] OF EPISCOPAL
- METHODIST - METHODIST EPISCOPAL -QUAKER -PRESBYTERIAN - CATHOLIC AND OTHERS
, OFTEN LOCATED ACROSS THE STREET FROM ONE ANOTHER !

BOTH PENNSYLVANIA  [ INCLUDING DELAWARE ] AND MARYLAND SEEMED TO BE FOR THE
MOST PART VERY TOLERANT OF MOST RELIGIOUS PRACTICES !  NOTE THAT THIS IN MANY
CASES DID NOT EXTEND TO MARRIAGES OUTSDE OF THE VARIOUS FAITHS , WHICH OFTEN
LED TO THE PERSON{S] BEING DROPPED FROM THEIR MEETING OR PARISHES. THIS
TOLERANCE EXTENDED TO THE COMMON USE OF OTHER FAITHS CEMETERIES !

MOST OF THESE CHURHES AND MEETINGS ORIGINATED  IN THE LATE 1600'S / EARLY
1700'S , SO IT IS NOT A RECENT DEVELOPEMENT !

HOPE THIS HELPS EVERYONE'S RESEARCH .
