John Kennedy Lacock Braddock Road Postcard No. 9: Braddock's Spring, near the Six Mile House, east of Clarysville, Md.
1908
LaVale, MD 21502Caption:
The tradition is that in and around this spring the first encampment - 'Spendelow Camp.' The topography of the country and the lack of sufficient and suitable ground for an encampment, together with the fact that it does not harmonize well with the chief sources, make it very questionable. That an advanced party may have encamped at or near this magnificent spring is more than probable, but the natural place for the camp would seem to be in the neighborhood of Allegany Grove.
