| "Station" on the underground railroad. A present day photo of the Robert Miller home on East 19th Street. Miller, his wife and ten children arrived in Kansas in 1858. This home was constructed soon after their arrival. The property included a "smokehouse" that was reportedly a clandestine shelter for those fleeing slavery. It is one of several sites in the Lawrence area known to have been part of the network of contacts who helped hid and move people in the system called the "underground railroad". |
