The Henderson Lewelling House also known as Lewelling Quaker Museum (LQM) is located in Salem, Iowa about 20 miles from the Missouri border. Henderson Lewelling was born in a Quaker family in 1809 in North Carolina, later his family moved to Indiana. In 1837 he moved his wife Elizabeth and 4 children to Salem, Iowa.
As an abolitionist, Henderson Lewelling represented the more radical side in his opposition to slavery. Salem Quakers experienced a schism between radical members and the moderates and eventually ejected Henderson Lewelling from the faith.
In 1843, along with other members of the Salem Monthly Meeting, they established the Abolition Friends Monthly Meeting.
In this episode; My guests, David and Cathy Helman at the Lewelling Quaker Museum in Salem, Iowa sat down with Erick Nganyange to discuss the life and the contribution Mr. Lewelling had to the Civil Rights in the state of Iowa.
