St. Clement's Island State Park : ウィキペディア英語版 | St. Clement's Island State Park
}} St. Clement's Island State Park is a state-owned, public recreation and historic preservation area encompassing St. Clement's Island, an uninhabited Potomac River island lying one-half mile southeast of Colton's Point, St. Mary's County, Maryland. The state park features a 40-foot stone cross dedicated to the beginnings of freedom of religion in the United States and a reconstruction of the historic Blakistone Island Light.〔 It is the central feature of the St. Clement's Island Historic District that was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1972.〔 ==History== The park preserves the site of the March 25, 1634, landing of Maryland's first colonists, who had sailed from Cowes on the Isle of Wight in England four months earlier.〔〔 The date is commemorated annually as Maryland Day.〔 The island was a convenient, temporary base of operations for the 150 settlers as they negotiated with the Yaocomico Native Americans for land for a permanent settlement. They named the island in honor of Pope Saint Clement I, patron of mariners. It was the site of the first Roman Catholic Mass celebrated in the British-American colonies, said by Jesuit Father Andrew White. It is widely believed that the Mass took place on the day of the landing.〔 St. Clement's Island formed part of St. Clement's Manor, which was granted by the Second Lord Baltimore to Dr. Thomas Gerard in 1639.〔 Gerard subsequently became a major landholder and political figure in Maryland and Virginia. After the island became the property of Gerard's daughter Elizabeth, the wife of Nehemiah Blackistone, it became known as Blackistone Island. After the Blackistone family took ownership in 1669, the island remained in the family for 162 years. The name reverted to St. Clement's Island in 1962 when the property was leased from the Federal government to the State of Maryland.〔
