In
1977 the submerged wreck of the flagship of the Chesapeake Flotilla
was discovered in the Patuxent River buried under five feet of silt.
This discovery was the start of the work to find the submerged wrecks
of the Chesapeake Flotilla that eventually became the Chesapeake Flotilla
Project (CFP). The goals of the CFP are not limited to just doing
underwater archeology, but also to help the public understand the
War of 1812 in Maryland. Many different institutions are participating
in this effort to recover the vessels and educate the public about
the War of 1812. |
