Belonging to James A. Bowley in the 1870s, this house was home to the first emancipated slaves Harriet Tubman helped. After James was free, he worked for the Freedman’s Bureau and then moved back to this location with his wife. After selling the place, it was kept as a historical landmark that passersby can see and reminder of the efforts and story of the family.
