Have you ever been curious whether your cellar – or any area of your home -- was once used as living quarters or a hiding spot for enslaved people?The African American Archive of Columbia County in collaboration with the Hudson Area Library is proud to present the second of four talks in its Speaking About History lecture series. Archaeological Historian Walter Wheeler will discuss how and where the enslaved lived in rural Dutch New York.
This event is highly recommended for homeowners interested in uncovering their house’s colonial history, as well as for anyone fascinated by Dutch vernacular architecture and life in the rural upper Hudson Valley.
