I am so sorry I did not speak to you the other day. I live in Delaware county Ohio. I have a walking stick that was in the hidden room of my home which was a stop on the underground railroad. I saw you on Old State Road by our pasture field and by the time I came out to the garden, you were not visible to me. My ancestor was the first permanent settler in the township. His daughter lived in the home I now occupy. It was a stop on the railroad and is on the banks of Alum Creek. If you would like to talk with me, our phone nubmer is 740-524-2943. I will be home by 8:00 pm I think today. I have presented historic probgrams at the school about life in the 1800's and own a number of family antiques that I use. Best wishes as you continu your study.
Most sincerely,
