| Description | The original settlers in the area that is now Colmar Manor arrived in the 1630s. Most were farmers, but it is reasonable to speculate that some made their livings in trades associated with the nearby Port of Bladensburg.
As the town developed at the beginning of the 20th century, it assumed a name derived from its proximity to the District of Columbia—the first syllable of Columbia and that of Maryland were combined to form “Colmar.” The streets were named after President Woodrow Wilson (1913-21), members of his cabinet, and other prominent men of the era. Some time later, the streets were renamed to conform to the system in use in the District of Columbia. The town progressed from dirt paths to paved streets with curbs. Storm drains were installed. Soon the town had its own school and a small commercial center. |
