Summary
This is the entrance to Coatsville, a quiet village just south of Burkittsville in the shadow of the South Mountain ridge. A July 2013 article in the Frederick News-Post, in which longtime residents Claire Henderson, Madeleine Butler and Richard Pry were interviewed, referred to Coatsville as "an eclectic mix of farmers, immigrants and slave descendants. The Horsey family name was prominent in this area, as it was connected to a defunct distillery and a schoolhouse where black children were educated when county schools were still segregated. That school is now a residence.”
