Tour one of the oldest free African American communities still in existence today.

For the past several years, The Hill Community Project, in partnership with Historic Easton, Inc., the East End Neighborhood Association, Talbot County, and the State of Maryland, has been documenting, preserving, and sharing this important history through land records, genealogy, oral history, archaeology, architecture, and preservation. Come see some of the stories we’ve unearthed so far on this self-guided tour.
