What Routes Were Taken? Thousands of routes were taken during the time of the Underground Railroad. There were some specific routes, but not many, because bounty hunters and slave owners would soon figure out a common route used. Most people believe there were four main routes, two led North and the other two led to Mexico and Florida. It was harder for slaves in the most southern states to reach freedom in the North as they had a longer way to go to get there, so some went to Mexico and Florida to escape.

Harriet Tubman (1820-1913) ) ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Born into slavery in Maryland, Tubman was beaten and whipped by her various owners as a child. The worst injury she ever had was when an angry slave owner threw a heavy metal weight at her, intending to hit another slave. The injury caused disabling seizures, headaches, and spells of hypersomnia which occurred throughout her entire life. However, she never let this get in the way of dreaming of a better life, not only for herself, but for others as well. END
