The Felling of St. Paul’s Great Oak
Maryland’s Most Historical Tree
April 8, 2016, Kent County, MD, By Pete Dillingham — At 7:40 a.m. on the morning of December 9, 2015, the sound of the first firing up of a chain saw was heard around the parking lot of St. Paul’s Parish, Kent. It was time to begin the felling of Maryland’s most historical tree, the 400 year old United States Champion Swamp Chestnut Oak (Quercus michauxii)…
Wood Ingenuity had the opportunity to help mill this historic tree. We currently have a variety of pieces in storage for those who may be interested.
