1812 Remembered
Welcome to Jefferson Patterson Park and Museum’s audio tour, "1812 Remembered." On this tour, you will learn about some of the causes of the War of 1812, its effects on non-military and military people alike, and the results of the War in southern Maryland. This project was produced by the Huntingtown High School 2010-2011 Archeology Classes and contains commentary from several experts. This tour starts just outside the Visitor Center and as you walk through this tour you will encounter information on five specific areas relating to the Battle of St. Leonard Creek. These include Farmers, Shipping, African Americans, Women, and Militia. We thank you for taking the time to experience this tour and hope this will be an enjoyable and educational experience for all. The tour is open year-round and costs nothing but the use of your cell phone minutes.
