1. Most people are familiar with Harriet Tubman, the best-known conductor of the Underground Railroad. Far fewer people, however, are aware of Tubman's unique role during the Civil War.
Helping the Newly Free
When the war began. Tubman followed the Union Army into Maryland, where she had been
bom. Many slaves were fleeing from the homes, farms, and plantations where they had been
held, and as they reached Union troops, Tubman was there to help.
The newly freed slaves were destitute. After escaping and spending weeks hiding, they often had
no food and barely any clothing. Tubman worked to feed and house them, and she also treated
them for diseases
To support her work, Tubman started a laundry. Along with women she helped free from slavery,
Tubman washed and mended clothes for Union soldiers. The women used the money to help
former slaves
Serving the Union
Tubman also served as a nurse and was present at the battle of Fort Wagner, in North Carolina,
where a troop of African-American soldiers fought for the first time. Many of them lost their lives.
Tubman cooked, tended to their wounds and helped bury the men who died.
Sometimes, Tubman was asked to leave her nursing duties and cross into Confederate territory.
Her experiences on the Underground Railroad had prepared her to be a scout and a spy. Once
on enemy land, she would gather helpful information from slaves. The Confederate Army
thought she was a slave herself and simply ignored her making it easy for her to get the
information she needed.
