Description
"Canning in Maryland started in 1849 and became big by 1880. Canneries could be found all over the state, but Baltimore had the majority of the early canneries. Thomas Kensett was the first canner to move to Baltimore in 1849, and opened the first of a long line of canneries. By 1880 Baltimore was the canning center of the country. Baltimore was known best for canning oysters, however, there was also canning of fruits and vegetables going on in Baltimore canneries"
