Summary

Description
English: Maulsby Barn (built c.1795), on left, and Abolition Hall (built 1858) on right. George Corson (1803-1860) operated a station on the Underground Railroad, and built Abolition Hall, a meeting room for anti-slavery activists. Frederick Douglas, Harriet Beecher Stowe, William Lloyd Garrison, Lucretia Mott, and other prominent abolitionists lectured here. In the 1880s and 1890s, the room was the studio of painter Thomas Hovenden (1840-1895).
The studio also was used by Helen Corson Hovenden, who was both a painter and photographer, and by daughter Martha Maulsby Hovenden, sculptor and painter. Not Stet (talk) 02:39, 7 September 2016 (UTC)
