Brownsville, Maryland

— Founded 1837 —

During the civil war, St. Luke's served as headquarters for General Lafayette McLaws, who's troops from the Army of Northern Virginia were bivouacked around Brownsville, September 11, 1862. It served as a hospital for his wounded following the Battle of Antietam. Union forces later burned the interior of the church, leaving it a shell until its reconstruction in 1869.
