The Underground Railroad Records
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from The Underground Rail Road Records)
The Underground Railroad Records chronicle the stories and methods of some 649 slaves who escaped to freedom via the Underground Railroad. William Still, [1] known as the father of the Underground Railroad, used his detailed documents regarding those he helped to escape in the Underground Railroad Records. While working with the Pennsylvania Anti-Slavery Society, Still worked with a fugitive slave who, he eventually realized, was his long-lost brother. He later then published a book, The Underground Railroad, based on the interviews he made with the fugitives he sheltered.
