Oliver Phelps’ Slaves

  • Second Baptist Church 100 North Main Street Suffield, CT, 06078 United States (map)

Presented by Bill Sullivan's American Studies students from Suffield Academy

Bill Sullivan's American Studies students from Suffield Academy will share history about the two individuals that Oliver Phelps enslaved when he lived in Suffield's Phelps-Hatheway House and Gardens. Students will update the Society about their Witness Stone installation ceremony for these two individuals as well as more original history about Phelps's impact on the Haudenosaunee, or "people of the longhouse," commonly referred to as Iroquois or Six Nations in New York State's Finger Lakes region where Phelps settled after living in Suffield.
