THE MAN WHO FOUND HIS FAMILY AFTER 40 YEARS
At age 6, Peter Still was separated from his mother and brother and sold into slavery.
For decades, he had no idea where they were.
No letters.
No reunions.
No way home.
After eventually buying his freedom, Peter began searching for the family he had lost as a child.
What he didn’t know was that his brother William Still had become one of the most important conductors of the Underground Railroad.
After nearly 40 years apart, the brothers finally found each other.
One of the most emotional family reunions in American history.
Because slavery could separate a family.
But it couldn’t erase the hope of finding them again.
