- From PBS - In 1836 "Free Frank" McWorter purchased his freedom from a Kentucky plantation owner. In Illinois, he planted roots, started a town, and purchased his family out of slavery. The local landowners and the McWorter family want to uncover what remains of New Philadelphia. Our team joins in the search for the pre-Civil War schoolhouse where New Philadelphia's African American children learned to read and write in freedom.
