WILLIAMSBURG-This Clermont County village will recognize five Underground Railroad and abolitionist sites at 12:30 p.m. June 14 at the First Presbyterian Church, 2nd and Gay Streets.

Gary Knepp, a lawyer and historian, will discuss Williamsburg's role in the Underground Railroad. He has helped locate and identify 33 places in the county that were involved in the pre-Civil War underground movement that helped runaway slaves.

The event is a part of the June in Olde Williamsburgh celebration, June 13-14, which is an official Ohio bicentennial event.

The Williamsburg Community Choir will sing at Knepp's presentation. The Williamsburg Garden Club will serve refreshments. Harmony Hill Association will sponsor the program.

From 1-4 p.m. on the 14th, one of the Underground Railroad sites, the home now owned by Doug and Gretchen Lefferson, will be open to the public. It is opposite the church.

Two more of the homes will be open: the Earl and Joan Pringle house at 136 North Fifth St. and the Mark and Linda Jordan house at 146 North Second St.

Harmony Hill Museum, 299 South Third St., will be open from 2-4 p.m.
