Gary’s Creek - Indian Path

Gary’s Creek was named for Stephen Gary, who died in 1686 and was high sheriff and one of the judges of Dorchester County, for whom “Spocott” was surveyed on this creek on December 27, 1662. About 1663, this road was the Indian Path from the Indian towns on the Choptank River to Jordans Point (Mill’s Point) on Chesapeake Bay.
