Good Luck is a small town and census-designated place in Prince George's County, Maryland, United States.[1]

Established in 1672, the former settlement is currently occupied by the Goddard Space Flight Center and a residential community.

History

Good Luck was a Шаблон:Convert property deeded to Alexander Magruder in 1672.[2] Magruder owned approximately Шаблон:Convert of land in Maryland, and some of his properties, such as Good Luck, were named after locations in the Scottish Highlands.[3]

The size of the property had grown to Шаблон:Convert by 1677.[2]

In 1702, Шаблон:Convert of land known as "Good Luck" was sold.[4]

A post office was established in 1817 called "Magruder's". The post office was renamed "Good Luck" and operated from 1830 to 1852, and from 1872 to 1876.[5]

Decline

In 1871, the village of Glennville (later renamed Glenn Dale) was platted by John Glenn and Edmund B. Duvall. Located on the Baltimore and Potomac Railroad, Glenn Dale prospered, and in 1876, Good Luck's post office was moved there.[5][6][7] In 1899, Good Luck was described as a "rural village" alongside "the railroad village of Glenn Dale".[6]

"Good Luck Road" is still located at the site of the former settlement, which is currently occupied by the Goddard Space Flight Center and a residential community.[8]

Census designated place

The population of the Good Luck CDP was 10,584.[9] The land area of the CDP was Шаблон:Convert and the population density was 3,308 per square mile.[10] In 1980, Good Luck CDP ceased to exist after the census area was split to create the CDPs of Glenn Dale and Goddard.[11]
