Several men ended up (or were already in) what would eventually become Charles County.  That would include William Boarman, Joshua Doyne and several others. If you have any information or stories on Sheriffs and would be willing to share, I'd love to have it. Also, we're looking for portraits and/or pictures, diaries, any memorabilia. I do have a list of the Sheriffs if you'd like to have it.  As you know, there are no attachments allowed on the lists, so contact me and I'll send. Thanks for any help!
