question on underground RR?

Question

does anyone know what the final effect of the undergorund railroad was? like if she died or if they were free forever? please help if you kno. thanks

Answer 1

The underground railroad was just a piece of the puzzle of emancipation.

Of course because all people die, Harriet Tubman died.

Removing slaves to freedom helped to undermine the efforts of slave owners, but Lincoln didn't just wake up and go "oh, they're escaping? Well, give them freedom then." It was a much more involved process of compromising until the Civil War broke out. Lincoln issued Emancipation as a way to limit the Confederate Army; the first proclamation didn't actually free those in the north. It was only until the south surrendered that full emancipation was issued.

Answer 2

The Underground railroad was not one person, but rather a huge network of people trying to help move slaves to the north. By
she" I assume you mean Harriet Tubman, and yes she did eventually die. BUt she and other brave people helped many slaves find their way to freedom during the Civil War.
