SUMMARY:America 250 Bus Tour: Revolution & Remembrance
DESCRIPTION:Baltimore was a key city in the fight for Independence. Di
 d you know Edgar Allan Poe's grandparents were famous Revolutionary Wa
 r patriots in Baltimore?\nJoin us for an America 250 bus tour throug
 h Baltimore’s Revolutionary past\, where the fight for independence 
 lives on in headstone\, story\, and street. Along the way\, discover 
 the Edgar Allan Poe family’s Revolutionary roots and the lives of Ba
 ltimore’s signers of the Declaration of Independence. Tours meet ins
 ide the Baltimore Visitor Center at the Inner Harbor.\nThe first stop 
 on this special commemorative tour is Westminster Hall & Burying Grou
 nd. World-famous as the final resting place of Edgar Allan Poe\, this
  hallowed ground is also home to over 300 patriots of the American R
 evolution and War of 1812—including Poe’s own family. Immigrants\,
  women\, and working-class heroes like David and Elizabeth Poe\, who 
 aided The Marquis de Lafayette’s troops\, are buried alongside towe
 ring figures like General Samuel Smith\, James McHenry\, and Rev. P
 atrick Allison\, chaplain to the first Continental Congress and an ear

 ith history of two Baltimore signers of the Declaration of Independen
 ce: a visit to Old St. Paul’s Cemetery\, where Samuel Chase\, the 
 United States’ first impeached Supreme Court Justice\, is laid to re

  Carrollton (the only Catholic signer) spent his final days and where 
 the very bed in which he died remains on display.\nWhether you’re a 
 lifelong Marylander or a first-time visitor\, “Revolution & Remembr
 ance” invites you to see Baltimore’s Revolutionary roots through 
 fresh eyes\, and to reflect on the diverse people who helped shape a n
