Home Contact Us UGRRI In Action Friends of the UGRRI ... Research and Resources General Information General Information What is the Underground Railroad? The origin of the term “underground railroad” cannot be precisely determined. What is known is that both those who aided escapes from slavery and those who were outraged by loss of slave property began to refer to runaways as part of an “underground railroad” by the 1830s. The “underground railroad” described an activity that was locally organized, but with no real center. It sometimes existed rather openly in the North and often just beneath the surface of daily life in the upper South and certain Southern cities. The underground railroad, where it existed, offered local aid to runaway slaves, assisting them from one point to another. Farther along, others would take the passenger into their transportation system until the final destination had been reached. The Underground Railroad in American History It is not exactly clear when slave escapes came to be thought of as part of an “underground railroad." According to one popular story, the phrase orginated when a slave named Tice Davids fled from Kentucky in 1831, probably taking refuge in Ripley, Ohio. The owner chased Davids in a rowboat as the fugitive swam across the Ohio River to Ripley, where he disappeared without a trace, leaving the bewildered slaveholder to wonder if Davids had somehow “gone off on some underground railroad.” The story spread among slaves and slaveholders throughout the country, fueling myths and hopes of escape via an “underground railroad.”
