Emmitsburg as we know it
Emmitsburg is the old town on Main Street, brick and stone houses from the 1800s with the deep windowsills and the plaster walls, and the newer streets around it; Mount St. Mary’s University and the seminary on the hill south of town; and the farms and the mountain roads in every direction, toward Thurmont, Taneytown and the state line. People here are a long way from the next cleaning company and a long way from us, and we come anyway: Emmitsburg is as much ours as downtown Frederick.
The old houses need a first visit that’s a deep clean, almost without exception, and they take longer than their square footage suggests because of the detail. A typical first clean of a three-bedroom home runs about three hours for a team of two; after that, about an hour or two per visit, depending on the home.
The office groups Emmitsburg with Thurmont, Rocky Ridge and Sabillasville on the same days and asks for some flexibility on the window.

A little history about Emmitsburg
Elizabeth Ann Seton, the first American-born saint
In 1809 Elizabeth Ann Seton moved her school to Emmitsburg and founded the Sisters of Charity, the first American religious order for women. She lived there until her death in 1821. On September 14, 1975, she was canonized as the first American-born saint. Source: Maryland State Archives
Mount St. Mary’s founded at the foot of the mountain
In October 1808 Father John DuBois, a priest who had fled the French Revolution, began laying the foundations of Mount St. Mary’s near Emmitsburg. The university calls itself America’s second-oldest Catholic university. In 1875 its students and seminarians built a replica of the grotto at Lourdes, which was named a national shrine in 1958.

Main Street’s 1785 roots and the 1863 fire
Emmitsburg is named for Samuel Emmit, and Main Street still has buildings from the town’s first growth in 1785. On June 16, 1863, a fire destroyed much of a two-block stretch of Main Street. Source: Maryland Historical Trust, Maryland Manual
