1848 Root House Cenotaph
Photographer: Anton Schwarzmueller
Taken: October 1, 2014
Caption: 1848 Root House Cenotaph
Additional Description: ...In 1992, the Root home, which is now owned by our very own Deputy Town Historian, Gail Reinbird and her husband Dan, received one of the Underground Railroad “stations” sculptures from the Castellani Art Museum at Niagara University as part of a public art project. The locations for the sculptures were selected because of their role in the Underground Railroad or influence on the abolitionist movement in the Niagara region. The Castellani features a permanent exhibit on the Underground Railroad and the public art project. - Townofcambria.com
