About Me

two4hooking: My father and ancestors were from Conowingo, MD around the Susquehanna river. Records as far back as 1761 show a man with my surname from Conowingo was paid a bounty for squirrel scalps, which almost seems fitting. There were others with my name in Maryland as early as the 1600s, and I have found over a dozen Revolutionary War veterans with my last name. Some of whom served directly, and were friends with, General Washington. It is safe to say my relatives have been hunting, farming, trapping, fishing, foraging, cooking wild and surviving in Maryland for many generations.
