The journey to freedom in Maryland

Woodlawn Manor’s grounds include an Underground Railroad Experience Trail that invites visitors to consider the dangers faced by those seeking freedom.

There is no documented evidence of Woodlawn Manor as a Underground Railroad site. The forest grounds are a powerful place to confront the contradictions of slavery, faith and the pursuit of freedom. The trail is part of the National Park Service’s National Underground Railroad Network to Freedom #visitmoco #undergroundrailroad #slavery #hiddenhistory #quaker taken in Woodlawn Manor Cultural Park by @visitmoco

This kitchen was home to enslaved cooks.

This log structure, built around 1850, is part of the Josiah Henson Historic Site, where enslaved people worked until 1864 and where Josiah Henson (inspiration for book “Uncle Tom’s Cabin”) visited around 1828.

Henson recalled being forced to sleep on the floor of a kitchen, describing the room as filthy and unbearable while lying awake thinking about how he could escape.
The current kitchen is different and archaeologists are searching the site to learn more #uncletomscabin #josiahhenson #visitmoco #hiddenhistory #oldkitchen taken in Josiah Henson Museum and Park by @visitmoco
