Braddock’s Trip

Braddock did indeed make his way through Maryland, meeting with quite a few of our Nation’s most important figures along the way.  Not only did he meet with Benjamin Franklin in Frederick, but he rode a great deal of the way to Fort Cumberland with George Washington. 

This picture was taken in Sharpsburg.  It is entirely possible to retrace Braddock’s movements through Maryland, following these road markers as you go.  Many of them say nearly the same thing.
