About: Duvall was an outspoken, brilliant, and committed abolitionist lecturer, friend of William Henry Seward, and Underground Railroad supporter. His home on an island in the Seneca River, near Port Byron, was so well known as a haven for African Americans that neighbors dubbed it “Hayti,” (pronounced Hay-tie) a name that it retains today, and he was sometimes called the “Island Chieftain.”
