2008-03-25Borders and Boundaries: The Mason-Dixon Line

As part of the Baltimore Festival of Maps, the Maryland Historical Society will display the original map of the boundary between the provinces of Maryland and Pennsylvania, printed by Robert Kennedy in Philadelphia in 1768.

In 1763, Lord Baltimore and the Proprietors of Pennsylvania hired two British experts to lay stone markers between their two colonies: astronomer Charles Mason and surveyor Jeremiah Dixon. Placing the markers every mile, the two men took almost five years to complete the survey. Commissioners for both colonies signed this print of Mason and Dixon's 'true and exact" plan in 1768 and affixed their wax seals. (Three of them were later to sign the Declaration of Independence.) The exhibition will feature additional historic maps and documents recording the eighty-year dispute between Maryland and Pennsylvania, alongside samples of surveying instruments in use at the time.

Maryland Historical Society, 201 W. Monument Street, Baltimore MD 21201
Open Wed.-Sun., 10 a.m. ? 5 p.m. Admission $3-4. Children under 12 free.
For information, call 410-685-3750 ext. 321 or visit www.mdhs.org.
