The Historical Society Of The United States District Court Of Th

The historical society was founded in 2007 to heighten the public's awareness of the rich history of the united states district court for the district of maryland since its inception in 1789. To enhance the administration of justice in the court and to educate those who frequent the courthouses in baltimore and greenbelt about the court's role in society and its impact on history, the historical society, governed by a board of trustees, will undertake a variety of projects such as the creation of exhibits in the courthouses, the preservation and restoration of court documents and artifacts, the recording of oral histories of senior judges and others, and the commissioning of portraits and photographs of judges and lawyers who have served the court.
