Hidden History - Easton

White Chimnies 

Somewhere in the vicinity indicated by red lines lies hidden the part of Talbot County referred to as "White Chimneys" that adjoined the town of Easton.  There is very little written word to remind us of it's existence. I haven't found the least bit of information as to why it was called that, which is the most interesting part.  Was there a home with more than one white chimney, was there a group of houses with white chimneys, were the chimneys white or was the smoke white? Only questions remain.
The land records are the only clue of it's location, being mentioned now and then when a land tract adjoins "the White Chimneys" prior to the town expanding to include it within it's limits.

The only other place it has been found written, is of course the newspaper beginning in 1802 through 1840. Just enough of a mention to keep the mystery alive. 

Any theories or knowledge?
