HIGHLIGHTS

    Most think of Chillum, Maryland, when they hear the name.  Fort Slocum's field gun battery and rifle pits are badly eroded, but the area is now the Fort Slocum Park. While there are few amenities within Chillum itself, adjacent neighborhood provide schools, post office, library, and metro station. New Hampshire Avenue takes residents directly to the Beltway.

HISTORY

      Chillum Manor was built by a branch of the Digges family. In 1641 the Digges family received one of the patents from Lord Baltimore for land in what is now Prince Georges County. During the Civil War, one of the 68 forts surrounding Washington was Fort Slocum. It was built by the Rhode Island Infantry and was named for S. Slocum who was killed in the First Battle of Bull Run. The Fort provided support for Fort Stevens to its west. The area remained farmland and undeveloped until the turn of the century. Manor Park was the largest subdivision built in Chillum.
