New Jersey had numerous stations on the Underground Railroad due to its strategic location between the slave states of the South and the free states of the North. Its proximity to major cities like Philadelphia and New York made it a crucial transit point for escaping enslaved individuals seeking freedom. Additionally, the state had a mix of abolitionist sympathizers and Quaker communities, who actively supported the movement by providing shelter and resources to those fleeing slavery. This combination of geographical and social factors contributed to New Jersey's prominence in the Underground Railroad network.

The number of people involved in the Underground Railroad is a subject of some historical debate, but it is believed that over 100,000 slaves escaped via the Railroad, traveling through dozens of "stations" leading to the north. The locations of many stations and the identity of many people involved of the Underground Railroad were never discovered and have been lost to history.

Even if there wasn't an underground railroad slavery would have ended without it due to the Civil War. The underground railroad was just a way for slaves to escape and make it to the north it did not end slavery.
No, because if they did do you think the slaves would escape at all, yeah that's what I thought!
I think she wanted to be a person who helped people get out of slavery. That is probably why she built the underground railroad.
it wasn't really underground, or a railroad, but it was like a secret path that soujorner truth helped all the slaves go to the south i think it was, so they would be free slaves.
She walked the UnderGround RailRoad when she secretly made 19 trips to take slaves to freedom. She had walk miles just to get people to freedom.She had to be careful. She always kept a gun in case one of the slaves wanted to go back she said`if you go back you die` `so walk on or die`
