In this engraving (click photo to enlarge) that was produced from a rather primitive sketch by John Moale in 1752, we see the fledgling new development called Baltimore Town. In their wisdom the Vestry of St Paul's Church decided to relocate from what is now Dundalk to Lot 19 in the new town. This parcel was on high ground at the northern end of town. The most prominent building in Moale's representation is the first church that was built on the exact same site as our present Old Saint Paul's.
