Historical
Note
Smith Island has one of the oldest
contiguous fishing communities in the Eastern Shore. Despite
the decline in the fishing industry and environmental
regulation, many Smith Island natives continue the trade.
Having rarely migrated outward from the Island until the 20th
century, many natives still retain a colonial Maryland
accent.
