It's been almost a year since I visited St. Simons Island in Georgia to see the new historical marker devoted to this site, but for some reason, every time I sat down to make a post about it, I couldn't bring myself to do it. Nearly all of the content I post here should come with a trigger warning-- any story of resistance is necessarily a story of horrible oppression-- but this one hits a little harder. Igbo Landing (also spelled Ebo or Ibo) is the location of an 1803 shipboard revolt and a mass suicide of Africans who were bound for enslavement and took to the water in chains rather than allow themselves to be sold into bondage. Below you can see the marker, which was unveiled in May 2022, and a photograph I took at the Historic Harrington schoolhouse, which displays an artist's rendering of the Igbo insurrection by artist Diana Dee Williams. The marker is in a nearby park, but the actual site where the event likely took place on Dunbar Creek is on private land and inaccessible to foot traffic.

Historical marker unveiled this last Sunday 3/12/23 in a local park.

This is the house Hedy lived in up to her death that is one street over from the park where the marker was placed.

Bogertown

This small early 19th century community of ten houses assumed the name of its prominent colonial Dutch residents, the Bogert family. C. 1824 this road, Paradise Ave., was lengthened through the salt marshes to a 500- foot pier on the Hudson to accommodate steam vessels. The adjoining creek had been deepened and rerouted c. 1740, becoming the first water level entry to this area then called Tappan Landing. First called "The Slote" (Dutch for "ditch"), the stream became known as the Spar Kill.
