Bryantown, Maryland, is an unincorporated community located on State Route 5, a major thoroughfare that leads north to Washington, DC, and south toward the peninsulas of southern Maryland, where the Calverts and other Catholic settlers founded St. Mary’s City (see chapter 2). Bryantown is dominated by its Catholic church, St. Mary’s. The current parish dates to 1793, but there was Catholic liturgy in Bryantown as early as the 1650s. On the grounds of St. Mary’s is a large cemetery, a testament to the Catholic history of the region. Among the tombs is an unremarkable gray stone engraved with the names Dr. Samuel Alexander Mudd and Sarah Frances |
