Additional Description: Source: Banneker's 1795 almanac, printed for and sold by John Fisher, Baltimore

Banneker's relevance to this particular boundary stone is somewhat tenuous; He worked mainly at Jone's Point, where he contributed to the survey by keeping the clock and making astronomical observations.
