Does this title have a typo? Potomac Company? Rmhermen 23:55, Dec 22, 2003 (UTC)


Potowmac Compony was the original spelling. google "Potowmac" User:20.4.32.203

When I do google, I find:
  • "Potowmac Company" - 3 pages
  • "Potowmack Company" - 25 pages
  • "Potomac Company canal" - 182 pages including Encarta, National Park Service, Maryland Historical Trust, etc.

I don't claim to know the original spelling but it would seem that Potomac is the most common spelling. Rmhermen 18:24, Jan 20, 2004 (UTC)
