History

It is part of the Cumberland, MD-WV MSA MD-WV Metropolitan Statistical Area. The map is currently on display at École Militaire in Paris. The settlement at that time had no name. In the late 18th century and early to mid part of the 19th century, coal and timber was loaded onto flatboats where Georges Creek George's Creek empties into the Potomac, then floated down to near Great Falls, Virginia, where the goods were unloaded, the boats broken up to sell as lumber, and the operators walking back to Westernport. Some time in the mid 1790s, the name was changed to Westernport, with the town being the western-most navigable port on the Potomac River.
