An Historic Walking Tour

The historic community of Newport (now Fountain City) was a well-known place of safety for freedom-seekers. Levi and Catharine Coffin were instrumental in providing this support, but there were so many others who worked with the Quaker couple to keep freedom-seekers hidden and moving north.  

On this walking tour, we’ll visit sites throughout the town and learn how Newport worked together as part of the Underground Railroad. The tour will also emphasize what the town was like when the Coffins were residents.
