Douglass arrived Perryville

Part of storyFrederick DouglassView in story ›

Time: Sep, 1838

Place: Perryville, Maryland, U.S.

Details: Douglass crossed the wide Susquehanna River by the railroad's steam-ferry at Havre de Grace to Perryville on the opposite shore, in Cecil County, then continued by train across the state line to Wilmington, Delaware, a large port at the head of the Delaware Bay.

Best-effort ordering. Some events may appear out of order since many are only known to the year, but they are usually around the same period.
