Re: Wilbur Siebert's work
In Response To: Re: Wilbur Siebert's work ()
Thanks Kate, I did a search at the Harvard site and found references to Siebert's work which also mentioned similar documents at the OHS. I'm curious to which work was done first. Was he a professor at Harvard and Ohio State? When I looked over my records I found the name of the person who did a more detailed study of Siebert's work to find additional UGRR operators that included my ancestors. His name was E. Delorus Preston, Jr. and I believe his work was "The Underground Railroad in Northwest Ohio vol. ???" Have you heard of this person and does he have his resources notes stored anywhere? It seems like I need to get a hold of the original source material of Siebert that Mr. Preston used in his work. I just don't know if this would be at Harvard or OHS. Mike
