Triadelphia (“three brothers”) was founded in 1809 by brothers-in-law Thomas Moore, Isaac Briggs, and Caleb Bentley, who were married to the Brooke sisters (Descendents of Robert Brooke, the founder of Brookeville).
The same water that helped create the thriving town ended up destroying it. A flood in 1868 causes significant damage to Triadelphia and other surrounding areas. Almost every mill was completely destroyed except for the grist mill. Entire homes were even swept away.

A little while ago, we introduced you to Lone Oak Brewery located in Olney off of Olney Laytonsville Rd. We went back again today to check out their progress and we were shown around by founders Chris and Charlie Miller, who both graduated from Magruder High School and partnered with Ralph and Ryan Mollet of Gaithersburg to bring you the brewery.
As of right now, they estimate a mid April opening. Lone Oak emphasizes local resources— they plan to grow some of their own ingredients including blueberries, blackberries, and possible pumpkins. They also plan to keep their own bees for honey, and they have even included wood from local trees into their buildings.
We’re working with the Sandy Spring Slave Museum to let you know about upcoming events.
