Harford County by Bill Bates

Through vintage and modern photographs and postcards, Harford County is revealed then and now.


With original European settlements dating back over 300 years, Harford County is rich in evidence of its past inhabitants. Images from the past 100 years show the early movie theaters that stood in Aberdeen, Bel Air, and Havre de Grace, the graceful iron bridge that crossed Deer Creek, the grand stone Archer home with farm animals wandering outside the front door, the general store at Carsins Run, and much more. Historic photographs and postcards document the people who have lived in Harford County, the places they have built, and their way of life. Present-day photographs taken for this book reveal the changes that have occurred. These pages showcase streetscapes, stores, restaurants, homes, schools, and churches from Jarrettsville to Darlington and Cardiff to Riverside. Some are all but forgotten, some have been repurposed, and some have been magnificently restored. Through vintage and modern photographs and postcards, Harford County is revealed then and now.

Bates, Bill: - Author Bill Bates has gathered photos and stories of Bel Air from area residents, merchants, and professionals with help from the Historical Society of Harford County, the Town of Bel Air, and several other community groups. An active member of the Harford County Chamber of Commerce, Bates owns Harford New Media, Inc., a Bel Air company that develops Web sites for Harford County businesses and organizations.
