"and was completed October 1830 " - Should there be an "in" between completed and October? Not sure if that's a necessary thing, or just a peculiarity of my
South Midland English.
" By June 1832, a 22-mile (35 km) section of the canal was operating between Georgetown and Seneca, which includes Lock 21." - I'd say included is better than includes here, as it's referring to 1832 events
Changed to "included".

Was it Offutts Crossroads or Offutt's Crossroads? Both are used
Will change all to "Offutt's". I believe both were used. An article from 2010 in Bethesda Magazine interviewed Bill Offutt—a descendent of the family. The article used "Offutt's Crossroads", so I will too. Would not be surprised if the Post Office would not use the " ' ".

Was the name spelled Jesse or Jessie? Both are used
Changed them all to "Jesse", which matches his obit.

"is located between water fall and water fowl attractions" - I'm pretty sure waterfall is one word
Fixed. Supposed to be a "clever" play on words, was not sure if I was going to leave it in.

You use Arcadia, Arcadia Publishing, and Arcadia Publishing Inc. Choose one to stick with
Those all match what is shown when one clicks the OCLC number. However, I will change them all to say Arcadia Publishing Inc.

File:Lock 66 below Paw paw on C and O Canal.jpg cannot be used in the article, as the licensing information is incorrect. It's not an NPS work, so the NPS work tag is incorrect; without a publishing date, it can't be demonstrated to be public domain.
