New Historical Marker Unveiling – Brinkley Hill

The Delaware Public Archives invites you to attend the unveiling of a new State of Delaware Historical Marker: Brinkley Hill.

Brinkley Hill was a remarkable free Black community in Delaware, serving as a stop on the Underground Railroad and home to brothers William and Nathaniel Brinkley, who aided Harriet Tubman, founded a schoolhouse, and helped establish Zion AME Church. The unveiling of a new State of Delaware Historical Marker will honor their lasting legacy and highlight the importance of preserving Delaware’s diverse histories.
