Is Thomas Elliott and Ann Marie Stewart Elliott House haunted?

No claims are filed here — the record keeps this place for its documented history, not for a haunting on file.

The record — long form

Elliott House is the Dover Eight — the '1857' that's the trapped at Dover, the 'betrayed' that's the Otwell's decoy. The '12 feet' is the dropped — the 'second floor jail' that's the jumped or fell, the 'Still' that's the Philadelphia reached. The 'niece' is the married — the 'Ann Marie Stewart' that's the Tubman's kin, the '1863 Auburn' that's the wedding place.

The 'numbered grave' is the lost — the 'Willard asylum' that's the died '84, the 'metal marker' that's the just a number. The '2010' is the found — the 'descendants' that's the gravestone dedicated, the 'whitewasher' that's the laborer's trade. Elliott House is the small — the '1868' that's the family built, the 'Richardson Ave' that's the across from daughter's.

The file keeps the Elliott house: the Dover Eight escape, Tubman's niece, the numbered grave, and the 126-year memorial.

The Elliott-Stewart House is the archive's New York file — the Dover Eight's home.

Why this file matters

The Elliott House is the archive's New York file — a Dover Eight survivor's family home.

A house keeps its survivor — the file's suggestion being that Elliott's hold is the escaped: the 'betrayed at Dover' that's the trap survived, the 'Tubman's niece' that's the family joined, and the 'numbered grave' that's the name restored.
