Don't know about the barber though. Mary Fries Ringgold married Jesse Showalter Fifer, who was a physician in Ridgely until the late 1940's. He had a small hospital where he did minor surgery and maternity services in what was called the Ridgely House ; my sister was born there in 1942. In the late 1940's, they moved to Frederick, Maryland. Sorry can't tell you much else - I was born in 1948 and my Father was in the military so we travelled around and didn't resettle in the area until 1960. By that time, a lot of the folks had passed on or moved away.
