McCulloch's Path
McCulloch's Path was an early colonial route through Western Maryland, referenced by George Washington in his diary in September 1784.
Washington's account
In September, 1784 George Washington traveled into the Ohio basin in the interest of a commercial union between the Great Lakes and the Potomac River. In his diary he wrote,Archer [Butler Hulbert]'s study of the records at the law office at Annapolis in 1905 show that there were two McCullough's paths, an Old Path and a New Path; they are remembered, though the bold pioneer whose name they bore is quite forgotten. The names McCulloch and McCullough were common in northwestern Virginia.
