My 5x great grand parents are buried in the graveyard there.
Is this that odd stone house on Rt 1 near Birroteca & Bob Bell Chevy?
Great photo ! I’ve never seen this one.
I vaguely remember a sign growing up…where exactly was this in Fallston?

What is the magnification on the eye glasses? If I can use them, I'd totally wear them when acting as a docent!
The topic of this last Del Haven cabin came up at the Society recently and today we find Todd Holden's post.
Thoughts On Del Haven: A Brief History Of A Bel Air Landmark
www.daggerpress.com
Dedicated to George Donhauser and Mrs. Clara Wilson DEL HAVEN COTTAGES AND HOTEL Early ads for this landmark at the north edge of Bel Air at the intersection of Moore’s Mill Road and Hickory Avenueâ...Loved this Todd Holden. Read it just the other day.
Yes, this building was my great great uncle’s barber shop. His name was Coy Greek Irwin who is buried up at Mt Zion Methodist Church cemetery
Loved this artical. Love the history being told.
The Del Haven Resturant and Cabins were second to none when owned by Mr. Felix Irwin. I remember the Barber Shop on US Route 1 across the road from Reubins Drive in.
Remember the old Del Haven just before it was torn down and the strip center was built with the 7Eleven. There was a drug store, laundry mat and hair salon at that time.
I wonder if the old upholstery shop across the street was also an old Del Haven structure?
Now mostly hidden by vegetation...
My Dad would take us to Del Haven and buy me a coke while he had a PBR.
And to this day June Martin Jones is still a beautiful lady!
This property is an eyesore and has been neglected for at least the past 40 years. What’s up with that?
Interesting read

The Brown Bag Lunch series will continue virtually with our guest speaker, Christopher Smithson on Tuesday, July 13, 2021 at 12:30 pm telling the story of one of Bel Air’s most prominent early citizens, Thomas Hays. The Hays House Museum, once Thomas’ home, is now operated by the Historic Society of Harford County, Inc. Many of us have toured the house or attended activities there, but have little knowledge of Thomas Hays and how he impacted life in Harford County. This is your opportunity to learn about this amazing county personality and to ask questions about the man and the museum.

I marched with the NHHS band in the Belair and Havre de Grace parades. I remember in particular one very hot July 4th. I felt for the drummers as they didn't get to stop playing when the rest of us did.
watch these parades and participated as well, some years it was soooo hot but endured. Thanks for the memories
Thank you for sharing. I love these photos. I would have been marching in the band in the 70's for several years. Might I point out, those uniforms were made of very heavy wool material and it didn't matter how hot it was during that time, you wore the uniform. Now days, they wear shorts and T-shirts!!
Hello my name is Jennifer Adams I used to March in a band called The Lads and lassies and I have no pictures is there anyway I can find any pictures of that marching group lads and lassies I believe it was in the seventies. If you have any information please let me know. Thank you
This is so amazing
Good days
