At the time of its creation, Frederick town was on the western frontier of Maryland and American European settlement. Over the next century and a half, westward expansion would reach across the continent to the Pacific Ocean. Frederick has several ties to this important story through past residents, subtle roles in national events and visits to town by legendary "Wild West" icons. I guess you could call it "Frederick's Manifest Destiny."Class # 4 will consist of a 2-hour "Wild West"-inspired walking tour of Mount Olivet Cemetery focusing on individuals talked about in class and buried here.
