Event Details

A Date with History Speaker Series welcomes Robin Michel Caudell who will speak about her paternal great-great-grandfather, Charles Kellum.  Charles was enlisted in the United States Colored Troops, 19th Regiment in Talbot County. His occupation is farmer but what the military record doesn't reveal is he was enslaved by Col. Edward Lloyd VII, "Master of Wye House."  This event is presented by the Talbot Historical Society in partnership with the Talbot County Free Library. Lecture is free and open to the public.
