Boyhood home of John Brown

Hudson, Ohio was the boyhood home of John Brown (1800-1859.) This marker is at the very south end of East Main Street on the Ravenna Street Green.  Abolitionist John Brown came to Hudson as a boy in 1805 and lived here until 1826. A frequent visitor to Hudson in the ensuing years, Brown attended services at the Free Congregational Church, which was a rallying point for the abolitionist cause in Hudson.
