The John Freeman Walls Historic Site

World Directory, North America, Canada, Ontario, Essex County Lakeshore,

The John Freeman Walls Historic Site and Underground Railroad Museum in the town of Lakeshore, Ontario is a historic site and family museum in Puce, Ontario built by the descendants of John Freeman Walls and Jane King Walls, who traveled the famous Underground Railroad from Rockingham County, North Carolina to Canada. The Underground Railroad was the first great freedom movement in the Americas dedicated to assisting passengers or fugitives from the slave trade and served to confuse the slave catchers, the passengers would be moved from one station or safehouse to another and eventually on to a terminal in Canada or the United States where there was freedom. The John Freeman Walls Historic Site and Underground Railroad Museum showcases the Walls family cemetery where friends, fugitives and family are buried. Here there is also the historic walkway where many slaves ran by night and hid by day, the Peace Chapel, the Simcoe building, a two story log cabin which was built in 1798, the John Freeman Walls log cabin, the Freedom train and more. Come for a fascinating glance into the lives and times of yesteryear and the brave people that made a difference.
