Description
For children and adults.
In this stirring living history performance by local historian Debra Sandoe McCauslin, you’ll meet Sarah “Sallie” Cook, a birthright Quaker, member of the Menallen Friends Meeting, and teacher in Adams County schools. Her father, Jesse, was involved in the Underground Railroad that helped bring those enslaved in the South to freedom. On November 19, 1863, 20-year-old Sarah and her sister met Abraham Lincoln at the home of their cousin, Gettysburg attorney David Wills.
Please register each child and adult separately.
