Experienced CCASM members Evelyn, Elsie, Jeanne Marie, Steve, and Carol assisted Charles County Archaeologist Esther Doyle Reed. At least four other people joined us in screening the artifacts. And, of course, numerous people stopped by to see what we were doing.
During the morning we chose an early nineteenth century green edged rim as the artifact of the day. This was found inside the building. But in the afternoon we recovered at least three early nineteenth century wine bottle bases with kick-ups outside the building. We also removed lots of mortar and some bricks from the building. And, yes, we continue to recover printer type.

CCASM also had a "public awareness" booth that included the display "Looking at Water's Edge in Charles County.
We would like to thank Evelyn for providing the photos
