My FavoritesInformation
The Dr. Eells house is credited to helping several hundred slaves make their way North to freedom. Open to the public now as a museum, located off of the historic Washington Park and downtown square in Quincy.
The Dr. Richard Eells House was a stopping point on the Underground Railroad in the 1840s, and is the oldest standing two-story brick home in Quincy.
