 Maryland Constitutional Convention of 1776
Between the assemblies of 1771 and 1773 the turnover in legislators was almost forty percent, five percent greater than between the legislature of 1773 and the Constitutional Convention of 1776.
The leaders of the Constitutional Convention of 1776 are well-known to students of Maryland history, and the Constitution they wrought is amply documented in the Proceedings of the Convention.
In fact, the turnout was poor throughout the state, undoubtedly because the war was not going well for the American cause, and most people, even if they were eligible to vote, preferred to wait and see what would happen before they committed themselves to the new state government.

 09/15/1998 New Study Looks At Impact On County Jails If   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
State leaders had been spurred to action in 1989 by the imminent threat of a federal court takeover of the Georgia corrections system due to overcrowded state prisons and an enormous backlog of state-sentenced inmates still held in county jails.
Some lawmakers were going as far to say that Georgia’s massive increase would leave the state flush with prison beds well into the latter part of the decade.
To bring that question into focus, the state Board of Pardons and Paroles asked an independent statistical and research firm, Applied Research Services (ARS), to develop a study of what impact a 1994 parole abolition would have on the current populations of the county jails.

A plaque inside the main gateway states that the structure was restored by the National Society Daughters of America Colonists and the State of Illinois in 1936.
British military leaders soon deemed the fort, which was renamed Fort Cavendish, of little practical value and abandoned it as a military post in 1771.
Visitors to the fort in the 1820s noted trees growing in the walls and buildings, which began to literally disappear as local residents scavenged stone and timber to serve as material for other structures.
