Everything I have ever heard or read about the URR, the slaves were carried at night from one "station" to another in wagons or carts. The people who drove them were the "conductors." The idea of slaves wandering around looking for certain quilts on the line is fanciful to say the least. The first mention of URR quilts was in the 1980's. Since people in the Civil War era were prolific diary keepers and letter writers, you would think there would be SOME mention of the quilts within 50 years of the Civil War. So where is it?
