Boundary Line Maryland - Virginia

State line located approximately 100

yards south of this point. In 1668

surveyors marked large Oak trees

to indicate the boundry. These

came to be called "Marriage

Trees" as couples traveled from

Virginia to wed under more lenient

Maryland laws. Boundry stones

were set after 1883 survey.

Marker is on Ocean Highway (U.S. 13), on the right when traveling north.
