The Caroline County Courthouse is located at 109 Market Street in Denton, Maryland.

After Caroline County, Maryland, was established in 1773, it held its early courts at seven different locations until 1797 when its first courthouse was built on the same site where the current courthouse now stands, an area once known as Pig Point.

[1] The building served the County for one hundred years and there were many changes during this period.

Even with the changes, vaults that stored records were overflowing and in 1894, the Caroline County commissioners asked for and received authority to raze the old courthouse and build a new one.

Roosevelt was there to support his New Deal programs and also to win votes for David John Lewis.
