Frances H. and Jonathan Drake House : ウィキペディア英語版 | Frances H. and Jonathan Drake House
The Frances H. and Jonathan Drake House is an historic house at 21 Franklin Street in Leominster, Massachusetts, United States. The 1.5 story wood frame house was built in 1848 by Jonathan Drake, and is a fairly typical Greek Revival worker's cottage. The house is particularly notable for the trap door located in its front parlor, which appears to have been purpose-built into the house at the time of its construction. Jonathan and his wife Frances were ardent abolitionists, and their house has been documented as a stop on the Underground Railroad. It has in particular been associated with the 1851 passage of Shadrach Minkins after he was successfully extracted from custody at a Boston court hearing.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=NRHP nomination for Frances H. and Jonathan Drake House )〕 The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2008.〔 ==See also==
