Straight line from downtown Salisbury to downtown Pocomoke is 20 miles. Would go near West Post Office, Perryhawkin and Cokesbury. Would kind of parallel the back way to Salisbury through the Pocomoke Forest.

 December, 1953



Salisbury Times


February, 1904


Democratic Messenger


January, 1941



The News Journal (Wilmington)


August, 1915
(The times..they are a changin')


The Marylander And Herald



1961.. "West Side Story" won the Academy Awards 'Best Picture' honors.

1973.. It became known as "The Saturday Night Massacre."
Attorney General Elliot Richardson and Deputy AG William Ruckelshaus resigned rather than follow President Nixon's orders to dismiss the Watergate Special Prosecutor Archibald Cox.
 



The Time Machine is a weekly feature I've enjoyed researching and compiling on The Pocomoke Public Eye since 2011.  I have fond memories of growing up in Pocomoke City and welcome reader contributions we can share about things you've read, remember, or were told relating to our Pocomoke/Eastern shore area..a sentence, a paragraph, or more all fine. Just email it.
