Caroline Quarlls (1826–1892) was the first enslaved person to travel through Wisconsin using the Underground Railroad. She escaped bondage in St. Louis, Missouri in 1842. Multiple abolitionists, including Lyman Goodnow, helped Caroline on her journey to Canada even as pursuers followed continuously. Quarlls' journey ended in Sandwich, Ontario (the same year she fled). She married Alan Watkins, a freedman, becoming Caroline Quarlls Watkins. Thirty-eight years later, Quarlls penned two letters with Goodnow, providing information about her family lineage, life while enslaved, and her journey to freedom.
