The workers say it might have been part of the underground railroad
used to hide slaves. BTW, this is in Northern Ohio. Needless to
say, this is kind of exciting and scary at the same time. What do
you think this room could've been used for?



Lots of things. Hiding liquor during Prohibition. Hiding valuables at
any time. (My house has a secret compartment that the original owner
used to store his silverware in.) It could have been part of the
underground railroad, like you suggested. Ohio is a bit far north,
though.


No Ohio was not too north. I know of at least one location in Columbus
Ohio, very nice place BTW and there were a number of stations along the
north shore of the Ohio river.
