 * The skull of Patty Cannon is oddly enough kept in a red hat-box in the main office of the Dover Public Library in Dover, Delaware. seems unbelievable but if true, is relevant to the article -- is a claim made by highly-lurid Okonowicz book.

 * [5] Frederick Douglass, afterwards Marshal of the District of Columbia, was at this time a slave boy twelve years old, living about twenty miles from the scene of this conversation.


 * [7] The origin of Patty Cannon is in doubt; a pamphlet published near her time gives it as above, with strong circumstantial embellishments, yet there are neighbors who say she was of Delaware and Maryland stock--a Baker and a Moore. The weight of tradition is the other way.


 * [8] This incident is fully related in "Niles's Register" of April 25, 1829 (No. 919 of the full series), page 144, where also is a contemporary account of Patty Cannon's arrest. The date of the exposure in this story is transposed from April to October. She was to have been tried in October, but died in May, about six weeks after her arrest. So she WAS arrested in March, as I thought.

Kidnapping by Carol Wilson 1994

 * Carol Wilson’s Freedom at Risk: The Kidnapping of Free Blacks in America, 1780-1865 is currently the only book-length study of the topic.


 * In particular, kidnappers preyed on the border lands just north of slavery; “the vast majority of kidnappings,” including Kitty Payne’s, took place “in the border states of Pennsylvania, Delaware, and Maryland.” 39 C. Wilson, 10


 * The Cannon-Johnson gang, probably “the most nefarious and successful kidnapping ring of the pre-Civil War era,” employed an African-American man named Ransom as a decoy. 165


 * Even when the victims were women and children, kidnappers often found it more effective to work in gangs. The Cannon-Johnson gang operated on the Delaware-Maryland border and routinely made excursions into Pennsylvania, and particularly Philadelphia, to enslave free African Americans.167


 * Many of their victims, like the Paynes, were women and children, such as young Sarah Hagerman, whom the Cannon-Johnson gang kidnapped from her Pennsylvania home in 1819.168

 * Julie Winch examines one of these ironies in her article entitled “Philadelphia and the Other Underground Railroad.” Because of the central role borders played in kidnapping, Philadelphia proved a favorite hunting ground for kidnappers. Located just inside the border of a free state, the city harbored many fugitives and free African Americans. Their presence, combined with Philadelphia’s proximity to two slave states, Maryland and Delaware, made the city a rich subject for Winch’s study of kidnapping. Winch suggests that there were in fact two “underground railroads:” one running north, bringing people to freedom, and the other running south, stealing freedom from its unwilling “passengers.”
