- Abraham_Galloway abstract "Abraham Galloway (8 February 1837 – 1 September 1870) was an American escaped slave, abolitionist, mason, spy for the union army, women’s suffragist, and state Senator.Born in Smithville (now Southport, North Carolina) in 1837. A former slave who played an important role in supporting the Union Army's success in North Carolina, he served in the North Carolina senate during the Reconstruction period following the Civil War. His death in Wilmington, North Carolina in 1870 was honored by attendance from over 6,000 people.He is remembered, in part, by a historical marker placed in Wilmington in 2012, a project spearheaded by a local committee, now known as the \"Friends of Abraham Galloway\", as recorded in the Wilmington Journal.Although he was a driving force in shaping local and state political direction during his brief lifetime, Abraham Galloway left no record of his own thoughts and ideas, being unable to read or write. William Still, abolitionist and corresponding secretary for the Philadelphia Vigilance Committee, records the escape of Galloway and his friend Richard Eden from Wilmington to Philadelphia, stowed among the cargo of a schooner carrying naval stores; pine tar and turpentine. Due to the hazardness of this particular journey, Still counts Galloway and Eden as \"classed among the bravest of the brave\". The Vigilance Committee provided passage to Canada for the two men.Within this century, historians and writers have uncovered Galloway's story, and continue to strengthen our knowledge of this Civil War personality. David Cecelski, through The Watermans Song (ISBN 978-0-8078-4972-9, Published: October 2001) and The Fire of Freedom (ISBN 978-1-4696-2190-6, Published: February 2015), brings the story of Abraham Galloway to life. An article by Phillip Gerard, University of North Carolina-Wilmington, in Our State magazine also highlights this historical vignette.".
