On behalf of the citizens of Wicomico County, County Executive Richard M. Pollitt, Jr., will accept a gift of three historic portraits from the Wicomico Historical Society at a ceremony scheduled for noon on Monday, September 8th in the Council Chambers of the Government Office Building.

Elihu Emory Jackson served as Governor of Maryland from 1888-to-1892. Nannie Rider Jackson was First Lady of Maryland during her husband’s term. Senator William P. Jackson served in the United States Senate from 1912-to-1914.
