Charles County and PG County, Maryland, right outside of D.C., are the richest majority Black counties in the nation. And they have been for a very long time. And I don't know why these places in Maryland became bastions of Black wealth. But it does seem like in some way the legacy of the first families in D.C. still lives on.

But I wish someone would look into this because I would love to know, like, why do they congregate there?

Uh, uh, uh. As for our newlyweds, Mr. and Mrs. Craigwell, they spent a little bit of time out in Pennsylvania, and then right before the turn of the century, they moved to Seattle, Washington. And once they get there, they make their way into Black history. Now, I can only find a record of what Mr. Craigwell did because of the times.

But I know, I believe, and feel that I know, that Lulu was there right beside him holding him down. Can I have you read the summary of Mr. Craigwell's life, which was written up for his obituary and published in Seattle's black newspaper, the Northwest Enterprise?

Mm-hmm.

Mm-hmm.

Craigwell passes away in 1937 and Lulu passes away in 1942. And as much as I would love to tell you that that's the end, I want you to have this happy ending. There is one last part.

Yes, Lulu and Craigwell were among Seattle's earliest Black citizens and members of Seattle's Black elite. And yeah, Craigwell does go on to become a barber and the city's most successful Black entrepreneur. He has a staff of 11 tonsillary artists in fashionable downtown barbershops. But about those shops...

So white people really liked to be waited on by Black people immediately following the end of slavery, but they didn't want other Black people around also being served. So some barbers would guarantee their all-white clientele that the staff would be all Black, but that they wouldn't serve any Black people.
