Sat., Feb. 12 at 10 a.m.: SSGHS president Dr. Larry McClellan presents “The Underground Railroad South of Chicago.”

Dr. Larry McClellan will present his latest research on the movement of freedom seekers into northeastern
Illinois, especially through the south suburban region and the assistance they found through the networks of the
Underground Railroad. This research included activity in Crete, Park Forest, New Lenox, Homer Township, Mokena, Dolton, Robbins, on the Little Calumet River, and in northwest Indiana. Some of the work has recently received national attention through the BBC travel program and an article in the New York Times.
