The Moses McKay House

Located in Warren Co. Ohio, it was the home of Moses McKay & Abigail Shinn and was built in 1818 with the help of newly freed slaves brought with Moses and Abigail. It was used during the days of the Underground Railroad to help hide slaves fleeing north. It is currently owned by Howard & Barbara Doster. Howard is a descendant of Moses McKay.
