The newly formed First Maryland Infantry (CSA) plays "foot-ball" at Glen Burnie before evening parade, from Harper's Weekly, Aug. 21, 1861

Glen Burnie looked much this way when, on Christmas Eve, 1862, Cornelia McDonald living across the road, saw a regiment of Federal Cavalry 'take possession of Mr. Wood's yard and beautiful grounds, attracted no doubt by the grass which is still green in many places."

One of three springs on the original James Wood homestead, this spring, located on the north side of Amherst Street, supplied water to Winchester since its beginning and to many a soldier, blue and gray. — Courtesy The Western Reserve Historical Society
