Did St. Marys, the original capital of MaryLand colony, really just disappear after the Glorious Revolution?

Not completely; it is in fact now an archaeological site and people had known where it was for quite some time before that. But yes, it was abandoned for not altogether surprising reasons; once the capital was moved to Annapolis(which was more centrally located, closer to the bay and to the other major centers of Maryland, and had a better port) there wasn't really much of an economic engine for the town.
