Anecdote     29 Jan 1666      Somerset Co, Maryland [6, 7]
On 29 January 1666 Edmund Beauchamp was sworn in as clerk of court of Somerset County. He was evidently sent to the Eastern Shore by Governor Charles Calvet as a person whom he considered well qualified to exercise the office of clerk to the court there. This local court "entertayned" the gentleman on this high recommendation with hope that he would carefully discharge the duties of so responsible an office. Beauchamp occupied the office of clerk of court of the Eastern Shore from June 1666 until August 22 following, when he was named and commissioned, first, "clark & Keeper of the records of proceedings" of the court of Somerset County, which was established by proclamation, August 22, 1666. Anyone who has had occasion to make careful study and investigation of the records of Somerset Court from its beginning throughout Beauchamp's years of service as clerk will fully realize the care and thought which this early worthy bestowed upon the duties of his office. A more splendidly kept set of records of court proceedings and deeds cannot, we believe, be found elsewhere during the early colonial period. He was a veritable master of his craft. From his appointment as clerk of Somerset in August 1666, Beauchamp continued to serve in this office, with the exception of a few months, or perhaps a year, until his death in 1691; a period of practically a quarter of a century.
