Abolitionist Place
Since 1847
Abolitionist Place is an alternative name for a section of Duffield Street in Brooklyn, New York City, United States, which was a significant site of abolitionist activity in the 19th century. Abolitionists Harriet and Thomas Truesdell lived at 227 Duffield Street, which is believed to have been a stop on the Underground Railroad. William Harned, an Underground Railroad conductor, lived at the intersection with Willoughby Street, and stories have been passed down orally of involvement of several houses on the block.
