St. Michaels Md
St. Michaels is located on the Miles River in Talbot County, Maryland, USA. It's name comes from a 1677 Episcopal Parish whose settlers engaged in farming tobacco and building ships. They built a fast schooner - later known as the Baltimore clipper -- to evade blockades or to outrun pirates or foreign naval vessels.
As shipbuilding declined, the oyster industry grew. By the late 1800’s, most people were either tonging oysters or working in shucking houses. Coulbourne and Jewett, founded in the early 1900’s, is notable as a black-owned enterprise who specialized in crabmeat. Frederick Jewett devised the five level grading system (regular, claw, special, backfin, and lump) still used today.
The video features the Hooper Straight Lighthouse, Harbour Inn, Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum Marina, Oyster Buildings, and The Inn at Perry Cabin.
