I moved to San Domingo in 2005. I didn't know much about the history of this place, until now. And what a rich history it is.

Are the any Beatty family that where in that area? I have seen a reference to San Domingo in my research, but not sure if it was the actual island.

God bless all of these people. Those were better days in this country except for the segregation Crap.That should have never happened. We are all the same in God's eyes. We we're all created in his image.. I'm proud to be from Maryland and I love the Eastern Shore history.
