Harriet Tubman Mural-Stop 2 (page 7) Harriet Tubman Underground Railroad Byway Driving Tour Guide:
"Relatives of Harriet Ross Tubman still
live in Dorchester County, as do
descendents of the enslaved and slave
holders. Members of the local
community chose to honor Tubman at
this quiet roadside garden. People across
the country can join them in paying their
respects to this American hero.
Tubman’s story, that of a young slave
who freed herself, then returned to
rescue family and friends, inspires
emotional and artistic expression in
works of literature, music, sculpture,
paint, and performance. One of
Tubman’s relatives, Charles Ross,
painted the murals here. Exterior
exhibits describe her life and
Underground Railroad activities in
the area.:
