	The Walter P. Snow House
	The Walter P. Snow house was built in 1850. Walter P. Snow was a lawyer who practiced in Snow Hill, the county seat of Worcester Co, MD. He was known as a kindly man. Ann and Walter owned the home until 1881. Established in 1642, Snow Hill was the center of business and produce for the Eastern Shore. The navigatable Pocomoke River ended at Snow Hill, which made the town a center of commerce and transportation, connecting the Eastern Shore to cities such as Baltimore, Washington and Philadelphia. The Walter P. Snow House became known as The Cedars. It is one of the grandest homes on Federal Street in Snow Hill.

	The Cedars
	Known as The Cedars, it was sold to Thomas Z. Johnson, a circuit court judge and his wife, Ann. In 1945 ,Benjamin Hitman, who was in the lumber business, became the owner. In 1975, it was sold to Mr. Monti, a pharmacist. In 1999,the property was puchased by us. We are the 5th owners of this beautiful estate. The Snow Hill library has a special section on geneology, which is just a short walk from our home. Take the time to see if you have family from the Eastern Shore.
