The Town of Perryville, in Cecil County is soliciting Requests for Qualifications for a seven month grant funded historian to conduct intensive historical research into the activities of Col. John Rodgers, a tavern keeper in Cecil and Harford Counties during the Revolutionary War.
A professionally completed report will provide an understanding of Col. Rodgers’ participation in the Revolutionary War within a local, regional, and national context. Emphasis will be placed on determining his role assisting American and French troop movements across the Susquehanna River at the Susquehanna Lower Ferry during the March to and from Yorktown. This work will be utilized in future institutional planning, public educational program activities, and marketing endeavors at the Rodgers Tavern Museum in Perryville, MD. This project is particularly important with the upcoming 250th Anniversary of our Nation.
The Town has established a budget for this project not to exceed $7,500.00. The project is funded by matching grants from the Lower Susquehanna Heritage Greenway the Washington-Rochambeau Revolutionary Route Association. Submissions are due to the Town of Perryville on June 28, 2022.
