Southern Maryland&nbsp; for sure wasn&#039;t in the control of the Union.</p><p>Mary Surratt was from&nbsp; an area around Andrews Air Force Base in MD.</p><p>Dr.Mudd lived no more than 40 miles from Baltimore&nbsp; in Southern&nbsp; Maryland.</p><p>Needless to say we don&#039;t honor Leaders or generals whom lost a war.</p><p>Maryland has always been called the line state. That line took many twist and turns during that time frame.&nbsp; And the streets of Baltimore as well the state had just as many Confederate as Union supporters.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
