Administrative History

The Whitehaven Heritage Association is a group concerned with the history and preservation of the Whitehaven area, on the Wicomico River, just around the bend from the Old Green Hill Church (St. Bartholomew's, Stepney Parish). Whitehaven was a major port and boat building center on the lower Eastern Shore of Maryland in the 17th to 19th centuries.
