SUMMARY:A Date With History: Historical Women of the Eastern Shore with Kathy Marconi
DESCRIPTION:“Historical Women of the Eastern Shore”\nwith Kathy Marconi\nTuesday\, March 24 at 1:00pm at the Talbot County Free Library \nIn celebration of Women’s History Month\, the Talbot Historical Society presents “Historical Women of the Eastern Shore” with Kathy Marconi. Most history books on Maryland’s eastern shore talk about the men who have shaped our communities. But many women also influenced the shore’s growth and development. This talk will cover some of these women’s life stories and accomplishments. For example\, how much do you know about Anna Ella Carroll\, a Civil War strategist for the Union? Or Clara Gumby\, who lived at the same time in Salisbury and was a spy for the Confederates? As history buffs here know\, in Talbot County\, Mary Barlett Dixon and Elizabeth Wright Bartlett Dixon were moving forces behind the establishment of the Easton Hospital. In the early 1800s\, the first female preacher of the A.M.E. (African Methodist Episcopal) Church spoke throughout the eastern shore. From the 1600s to the end of the 20th century\, their accomplishments\, along with those of other women\, are astounding. Bring your own stories to this discussion of Historic Women of the Eastern Shore.\nKathy Marconi\, PhD\, MS\, holds a doctorate in sociology and a master’s in health information management. Her career spanned local\, state\, national\, and international public health\, including the Pennsylvania Health Department and the US Departments of State and Health and Human Services. In federal service she worked on White House projects under Presidents Clinton and George W. Bush. Her work focused on evaluating chronic disease and HIV/AIDS programs. She taught at the University of Maryland Baltimore Graduate School and University of Maryland University College. A regular teacher at Chesapeake Forum\, she and Mary Jordan developed a class on Historic Women of the Eastern Shore. Now retired\, she lives in Oxford\, Maryland\, with her husband and has published extensively on health.\nThis is presented by the Talbot Historical Society in partnership with the Talbot County Free Library and will take place at the library located at 100 W. Dover St.\, Easton\, MD 21601.\nThe lecture will be presented on March 24\, 2026 at 1:00pm at the Talbot County Free Library\nThe lecture is free to the public\, please plan to arrive early\, as seating is limited and available on a first-come\, first-served basis.\nTalbot Historical Society office/research/exhibit hours are: Wednesday through Saturday 10am-3pm
