Frederick Douglass lived most of his public life in Rochester. As a major Stationmaster on the Underground Railroad he directly helped hundreds on their way to freedom through his adopted home city of Rochester, NY.

Thanks, I hadn't know he'd lived in Rochester. I have spent some time in Syracuse recently, I think well of upstate NY.
