Mayhew Cabin Reopens After Flood

After a devastating 2019 flood shut it down for seven years, the historic Mayhew Cabin — a vital Underground Railroad stop in Nebraska City — has reopened, restored with care by the same carpenter who helped revive it two decades ago. More than bricks and beams, this cabin carries deep personal meaning for descendants like Darryl Hogan, whose ancestors once sought freedom through its doors. The Mayhew Cabin Foundation now invites visitors to walk its halls, honoring the past while planning next steps — including restoring John Brown’s Cave and the museum — with help from volunteers and donations. Reopening isn’t just about preservation; it’s about reclaiming identity, community pride, and the lessons history demands we never forget.
