Description

History Hub presents a complete biography of Harriet Tubman from start to end, whose remarkable story inspires us even today. Harriet Tubman, originally named Araminta Ross. was born into slavery in a Maryland plantation owned by Anthony Thompson. Her father, Ben Ross, was also under the same slave owner while her mother, Harriet Green, was owned by Mary Brodess, Mr. Thompson's second wife. Upon turning eleven, she changed her name to Harriet to follow her mother's name. Tubman experienced harsh labor conditions and physical violence at an early age. She endured severe headaches and narcolepsy for the rest of her life after an overseer accidentally hit her with a two-pound metal weight. In her twenties, she married John Tubman, a free man. Her desire to escape was ignited upon knowing that her master could separate her from her husband since her status as a slave did not change. She plotted an escape, but Mr. Tubman decided to stay in Maryland. She fled to Philadelphia alone where she met William Still, who taught her the workings of the Underground Railroad. Later on, she became an Underground Railroad conductor, which became an opportunity for her to rescue slaves. After a decade when her term as a conductor ended, she joined the Union Army as a nurse and a cook during the American Civil War. There, she met Nelson Davis, who became her second husband. They were blessed with a peaceful and happy marriage. Harriet Tubman died on March 10, 1913 and was buried in Fort Hill Cemetery at Auburn, New York.
