Hi people,
I have seen for the past few days you'all been taking about the watermen on the Delaware River and other river ways in southern Delaware and Maryland. I was wondering if anyone would remember anyone from the Liepsic, Delaware area. I had a uncle by the name of Sambo Burrows, who worked the creek/river (I do not remember the name of it now) that came by Liepsic for oysters, grabs anything else they could make a living from and as a young child I used to go out on the boat with them. Eventually Sambo opened a resturant in Liepsic called Sambo's Tarven. Would anyone remember anything about this area, if so you may e-mail me direct at . Thanks Bill
