3 3 ALABAMA Mobile, Alabama Founded in 1702 as Fort Louis de lá Mobile on the Mobile River Alabama was a leading Southern cotton state. To help support this agricultural economy, plantation owners purchased thousands of slaves. Many of these slaves came from the port of Mobile, Alabama, which was a major entry site for slave ships. In 1721, the Africane was the first ship to bring slaves into Mobile. Because of its large slave population, Mobile was a Southern starting point for the Underground Railroad. (From Mobile Public Library Local History and Genealogy. Mobile is also the location of AfricaTown, the last known location of traders importing slaves. AfricaTown is the site in Mobile, Alabama, along the Gulf Coast where the last cargo of Africans landed in Their landing marked the last recorded attempt to import Africans to the United States for the purpose of slavery. (From AfricaTown, USA. The song, Follow the Drinking Gourd, provides directions beginning in Mobile for fugitive slaves to follow on their trek north along the Underground Railroad. When the sun comes back and the first quail calls, Follow the drinking gourd. For the old man is awaiting for to carry you to freedom, If you follow the drinking gourd. When the sun comes back means winter and spring when the altitude of the sun at noon is higher each day. Quail are migratory bird wintering in the South. The Drinking Gourd is the Big Dipper. The old man is Peg Leg Joe. The verse tells slaves to leave in the winter and walk towards the

4 4 Drinking Gourd. Eventually they will meet a guide who will escort them for the remainder of the trip. Most escapees had to cross the Ohio River which is too wide and too swift to swim. The Railroad struggled with the problem of how to get escapees across, and with experience, came to believe the best crossing time was winter. Then the river was frozen, and escapees could walk across on the ice. Since it took most escapees a year to travel from the South to the Ohio, the Railroad urged slaves to start their trip in winter in order to be at the Ohio the next winter.

Spanish Fort, Alabama Founded as a French trading post on the Eastern Shore of Mobile Bay, reinforced as a fort by the Spanish in 1780, and used as a Confederate encampment during the American Civil War The campaign for Spanish Fort and Fort Blakely were two of the final battles of the Civil War. As the American Civil War began to draw to a close in April of 1865, part of the last major campaign of the war was played out in Alabama during the siege and reduction of Spanish Fort and

5 5 Fort Blakely located east of Mobile. During this campaign both sides brought to bear all that had been learned in four long, brutal years of war. (From the Alabama Department of Archives and History, Point of Interest: Meaher State Park 5200 Battleship Pkwy. E. Spanish Fort, AL AM - Sunset (Seven Days a Week) Entrance Fees: Age 6-11 $0.50 Age $1.00 Senior Citizens (62 years of age and older) $0.50 (From Welcome to Spanish Fort, Alabama, Upper Bryant Landing, Baldwin County, Alabama Baldwin County was created by the Mississippi Territorial legislature on 1809 Dec. 21, from territory taken from Washington County (From Baldwin County Website, Since its formation, Baldwin County, has been a leading agricultural center of the state, and it still ranks in the top ten cotton producing counties. Baldwin s agricultural success came at a price, however, for Alabama slaves. Think of this, ye cotton lords of England; think or it, ye cotton spinners and weavers: think of this, ye cotton speculators, that many an Alabama slave in the cotton plantations lies down at night not only with an overworked frame, but with a hungry belly and a sore back. Could you without the knowledge of the masters, overseers, or slaves, go about those plantations and see how slaves are managed and worked, you would surely see there presented to your minds the strongest motives for using your utmost influence to bring into use your own cotton lands and labour, of which there is no lack, either of quality or quantity. (From A Narrative of Events of the Life of J.H. Banks, an Escaped Slave, from the Cotton State, Alabama, in America, Written with Introduction, by J.W. Pennington, D.D.
