Among some of the earliest land grants are ''Maiden's Fancy'', a tract surveyed for Neal Clark in 1700, and ''Bear Bacon'' nearby, a tract of land surveyed in 1703 for a Mark Richardson. Another prominent land holder was Richard Snowden, an iron master, who held various land patents in the area, including ''Snowdens Manor'' (surveyed 1715) consisting of an impressive and ''Snowdens Mill'' (surveyed 1723) occupying an additional . From these larger tracts, among others, were carved smaller tracts of land which were either rented or sold off to planters and the like. The community of Burtonsville, originally called Burton's, takes its name from Isaac Burton, who in 1825 bought out his siblings' shares of his father's land and became the major landowner in the area. He and his wife Keturah had 17 children, many of whom stayed in the area as adults. The community itself grew around the intersection of Old Columbia Pike and the road to Sandy Spring. In the 1850s Isaac Burton became the first postmaster of the newly established post office in the vicinity, which operated out of his store at the intersection. Burtonsville's core area today continues to center around the intersection of Maryland Route 198 and US Route 29. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Burtonsville, Maryland」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
