Topic: The Mystery of Margaret: Unraveling the Story of Harriet Tubman’s “Daughter” and Her Ties to the Seward Family
Based on original research into Harriet Tubman, this program follows her story from enslavement in the Antebellum South to her relationship with the Seward family of Auburn, NY during her years as a conductor on the Underground Railroad. It does so through the unique lens of Margaret Stewart, a young child very close to Tubman who was entrusted to the Seward family during the Civil War. The program concludes with a look at Harriet Tubman’s life as a resident of Auburn throughout the second half of her life.
