Dear Friends and Neighbors,

I've recently become aware of plans to burn down an 1840 farmhouse in Maryland that is one of three in a row on Harriet Tubman's Underground Railroad. This particular house was never entered into the Historic Preservation, so as it stands right now, it is allowed to be burned down to build new homes.
I've decided to create a petition of signatures to propel the Building office of Kent County to investigate the historical importance of this Maryland house before allowing it to be burned down, in hopes that they would halt the process altogether. Preservation Maryland has confirmed it is right on the "ceremonial route of the Underground Railroad." If you know of anyone who would like to add their signature, please tell them to go to change.org/SaveUndergroundRailroad.

In addition to signing this petition, you can also call the Kent County planning Office at (410)778-7423 and request that a demolition delay be filed for an assessment of historical importance be conducted on property 33740 Sassafras Caldwell Rd., Galena, MD 21635.

In light of pride month and the current political environment that is stripping us of all our rights, it is my hope that I can win this battle and it can serve a small ray of hope in maintaining our country's diversity. We will only succeed united as one.
With gratitude, Natalie
