A Bit of Leominster HIstory

I was working on a geocaching puzzle cache today, and stopped by this monument in Leominster. I had never heard of it, and it was interesting to learn more about the history of our city and how citizens contributed to the movement of escaped slaves. Massachusetts has so many historical markers and plaques around that we sort of take them for granted. But it's interesting to stop and take in a bit of history, and think about the people that walked the streets you are walking now.


This article from the Worcester Telegram tells more about the house and the family.
