Many fugitive slaves were helped across the Ohio River by abolitionists and members of the Underground Railroad, a network that provided safe passage to freedom. One notable figure was John Parker, an African American former slave who became an active conductor on the Underground Railroad. He used his own home in Ripley, Ohio, as a safe haven and guided many escaping slaves across the river into free territories.

Hamilton was shot in his duel with Aaron Burr in Weehawken, New Jersey. This was just across the Hudson River from New York City. The dueling place was a level spot on the hillside above the River, where New Yorkers went to fight duels to avoid being charged with the crime of dueling in New York. Hamilton lived for a day and a half after being shot. He was rowed back across the River and taken to his home in New York City, where he died.
