This postcard was the very first artifact in our collection, purchased before we owned the Markle House. Somewhere between our first walk through with a realtor and our first purchase agreement, I found and bought this post card on eBay as a gift for my husband. It hung on our fridge in our house in Rockville while we pursued our dream. A little over a year later, we held the keys in our hands and the adventure began.
Of note… the caption on the back states that the house was a stop on the underground railroad. This is a topic that needs a little more discussion. See our FAQ post Was The Markle House Part of the Underground Railroad?

This postcard is not dated. We would LOVE to know when it was published if anyone has any details or resources to share!
