MARYLAND GAZETTE

The Maryland Gazette was the earliest newspaper published in Maryland, USA. It was established at Annapolis in 1727 by William Parks, and continued irregularly as a weekly until about 1736, when it was suspended. In 1745 another Gazette appeared, which, with the exception of a short suspension in 1765 on account of the Stamp Act, was published regularly during the American Revolution, and still existed as a weekly journal at the end of the 19th century. Maryland was the fourth American colony in which a newspaper was established.
