Rokeby, National Historic Landmark house in Ferrisburgh, United States.
The 90-acre property includes a Federal-style main house from 1814, eight agricultural outbuildings, and permanent exhibitions about the Robinson family.
The Robinsons, starting with Thomas Rowland Robinson in 1793, maintained this property for generations while providing shelter to escaped slaves.
The residence stands as a testament to Quaker values, containing extensive correspondence that documents the operations of the Underground Railroad network.
The museum opens from mid-May through mid-October, offering guided tours of the historic buildings at 11 am and 2 pm, Wednesday through Monday.
Four generations of Robinsons lived in this house until 1961, leaving behind detailed records of their activities as abolitionists, farmers, authors, and artists.
