About this Item

Print on Demand. This book delves into the intertwined narratives of two prominent Maryland families, the Greenes and the Raskobs, tracing their lineage from the early colonial period through the 19th century. The author meticulously reconstructs their lives, drawing upon a rich tapestry of historical documents including wills, land records, and personal correspondence. The Greenes, arriving in Maryland in the 17th century, played significant roles in the colony's development. Thomas Greene, a central figure, served as governor and his descendants became influential planters, shaping the social and economic fabric of Charles County. The Raskobs, of German origin, immigrated to America in the 19th century and established themselves as successful entrepreneurs, eventually joining the Greenes through marriage. The book explores themes of family, faith, and resilience against the backdrop of major historical events such as the American Revolution and the Civil War. It offers a unique perspective on Maryland's history, highlighting the contributions of these families to the state's growth and prosperity. Ultimately, this book provides a compelling testament to the enduring legacy of families and their impact on the course of history, reminding us that individual lives are intricately woven into the broader human story.
