Wright’s A.M.E Has Been a Part of Elkton’s History Since the 19th century

On a spring day in the middle of May, Wright’s A.M.E. Church, an old Elkton house of worship, looks good as storm clouds break and the sun begins to shine on the sanctuary.  It has been a part of Elkton’s history since the early 1880s.  It was dedicated in May 1882 by Bishop Layman and Presiding Elder J. H. Handy, according to the Cecil Whig. Rev. Collett was the local minister.   Click here for a web page on Wright’s history.
