Approximately 200 yards northwest of this spot, an iron foundry owned by William McShane was built in 1894. When asked to name the railroad depot serving his new foundry, he chose Dundalk in honor of the birthplace of his father, Henry McShane, who was born in Dundalk, Ireland. The two seaport communities of Dundalk, one in Ireland and one in Maryland, have many other similarities.
