​Marietta House Museum Event February 15
 
In 2023 St. George’s celebrates 150 years as a community of faith in Prince George’s County.  Part of our sesquicentennial observance this year is to explore the history of the land St. George’s was built on and labor involved not just in the building of St. George’s but also our immediate area.  To that end, we share this information about an event of interest at the Marietta House Museum in Glenn Dale.   
 
On Wednesday, February 15, 6:30pm – 8:00pm, meet Africanist and historian, Dr. Kathryn Barrett-Gaines, who will speak about the legacies of African culture at Marietta House, a former tobacco plantation where generations of African descendants lived and labored. Dr. Barrett-Gaines is the Museum's visiting scholar and a history professor from the University of Maryland Eastern Shore. Dr. Barrett-Gaines will present cultural and historical evidence of African culture at 19th century Marietta House and plantation and Swahili and other African language ties to the history of the house. This hybrid talk will be held in-person at Marietta House Museum and online via Microsoft Teams.  $5/person; ages 12 & under are free. Please register on Parks Direct on https://tinyurl.com/yj833re6, for information MariettaHouse@pgparks.com, or call 301-464-5291.
 
Marietta is the 1813 home of Judge Gabriel Duvall, a Supreme Court Justice and Comptroller of the Treasury. Marietta stands on terraced, landscaped grounds with two contemporary outbuildings: a brick law office and a stone and brick root cellar/harness storage room. The grounds boast two County Champion trees and lovely old boxwood. The family graveyard has been relocated to these serene surroundings. It is located at 5626 Bell Station Road, Glenn Dale, MD  20769.
