General Information about Burtonsville

Burtonsville is a census-designated place and an unincorporated area in Montgomery County, Maryland, United States. It takes its name from Isaac Burton, the first Post Master of the newly established post office in the vicinity, which operated out of Burton's store, beginning in the 1850s. Before this time, during the early 18th century, the area was referred to as the Patuxent Hundred and later the Eastern Branch Hundred a community comprising of about 100 inhabitants. Among some of the earliest land grants are Maiden's Fancy a 580 acre (2.3 km) tract surveyed for Neal Clark in 1700 and not far from Bear Bacon a 600 acre (2.4 km) tract of land surveyed in 1703 for a Mark Richardson. Another prominent land holder was that of Richard Snowden, an iron master, who held various land patents in the area including Snowdens Manor (surveyed 1715) consisting of an impressive 9,265 acres (37.5 km) and Snowdens Mill (surveyed 1723) adding an additional 546 acres (2.2 km). From these larger tracts, among others, were carved smaller tracts of land and either rented or sold off to planters and the like.
