Frederick Douglas had many kids. Some were his and some were step children from his third wife. He treated them, though, as if they were his own children.
Frederick Douglass's house, known as Cedar Hill, is located in Washington, D.C. It is a large Victorian-style home featuring a distinctive wrap-around porch and spacious rooms filled with light.

Today, Cedar Hill serves as a historic site, preserving Douglass's legacy and contributions to American history.
