EASTON, MARYLAND — The Colonel Tench Tilghman Chapter of the Maryland Society Sons of the American Revolution will hold its 3rd Annual Celebration of Colonel Tench Tilghman Week on Saturday, Oct. 24, 2026, with a daytime program in Easton from 9:00 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.
The chapter invites the public to march in a parade honoring Tench Tilghman and patriot ancestors, then place a wreath at the Spring Hill Cemetery grave of Solomon Barrott — named on the Talbot 250 page as the last living member of the Maryland Line, who died in 1851 at age 88. Talbot County Free Library is hosting the featured talk at the Avalon Theatre, 40 East Dover Street: historian Patrick K. O’Donnell on Washington’s Immortals and Maryland’s Revolutionary soldiers, 11:00 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.; free seats require registration on the library calendar at tcfl.org / talbot.librarycalendar.com.
This is the dated celebration notice — not a biography of Tilghman.
