"Finding Jesse" Historian and Rokeby Museum director emerita Jane Williamson will give an illustrated talk about the research she did to understand the circumstances of fugitives from slavery who lived at, or passed through the Robinson family farm in Ferrisburgh. The talk will not only provide an understanding of the Underground Railroad from the point of view of the escapees themselves, it will also illuminate the practice of history. Students interested in pursuing a career in history are urged to attend.

Also on February 24, the museum's award-winning multi-media exhibit "Free & Safe: the Underground Railroad in Vermont" will be open from noon to 5:00 p.m.
