Purchased by my grandparents Thomas Walter and Violet Emma Dove Biscoe in the 1920's the 100-acre "No Point Farm" was one of the few farms owned by African Americans along St. Jeromes Neck Road in Dameron, Maryland.

Purchased by my grandparents Thomas Walter and Violet Emma Dove Biscoe in the 1920's or 30's, the 100-acre NO POINT FARM was where I, as young boy through my mid-teens, spent much time.  In 1969 my grandparents sold the property to the Capper family who, at that time, owned and operated Capper's Nursery in Southern Virginia.  And who, shortly before, had begun purchasing large farms in Southern Maryland, particularly, in Dameron along St. Jeromes Neck Road.  My grandfather passed in 1971.

Located at 17238 St. Jeromes Neck Road, it was Mr. Capper who named the property as NO POINT FARM.  And as he had promised my grandfather, Mr. Capper permitted my grandmother to remain in the house on the farm until her death, or for as long as she wanted to.

After experiencing a stroke in the early 80's my grandmother, Violet Biscoe, moved to Joe Baker's Village in Lexington Park, MD.
