The war of 1812-1814
"While the President of the United States delayed calling upon the States for military support until July 4th, 1814, Maryland was alert to the impending situation. When the battle of North Point and Fort McHenry came, in September, 1814, Maryland had the situation well in hand, won the day and made the victory so complete that they became crucial turning points in the struggle or American reedom upon the high seas, and that they practically put an end to the war and insured the treaty of peace which so soon followed in their morning wake.
Allegany county formed a part of the first military district of the State, and furnished two well-drilled and fully equipped companies that marched to Baltimore and gallantly participated in those memorable engagements. One of these companies was made up of Cumberland men, and the other of men from the lower districts of Allegany county.

As far as the Cumberland branch of the Madore family history is known, it began with Francis Madore, father of Benjamin Francis and grandfather of Lloyd Clark Madore, who lived on the top of Long Hill, on the Baltimore Pike. It is supposed that he was Hueguenot French, for he was called "Frenchy." He was a skilled river boatman of his day in piloting boats to Georgetown, D.C. and must have come to the county along with Thomas Beall of Ninian, for he lived on Thomas Beall's land and died there, and lies buried in the corner of the Elza Nave field by the pike side at its turn where you come in sight of the Robey schoolhouse.
