Randolph J. Harris,
of Lancaster, has been doing yeoman's work in the field of Underground
Railroad research for quite some time. His efforts have yielded
valuable results in the discovery, recognition, and ultimately the
protection of several highly significant sites in Lancaster County.
Those sites include the cistern connected with Thaddeus Stevens'
property at 45-47 South Queen Street in Lancaster, believed to have been
used as an Underground Railroad refuge, and as documented below, recognition of Zercher's
Hotel as the only surviving historical site associated with the
Christiana Rebellion.
