We are going to find any and all data, pertinent to this investigation.

The study of this organization may give you insight into the other groups.....https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Urban_League

In July 1905 twenty nine men met at the Erie Beach Hotel[10] in Fort Erie, Ontario, opposite Buffalo. Differing explanations exist for why the group met in southern Ontario and not Buffalo. A commonly given reason, which has not been substantiated by primary sources, is that they had originally planned to meet in Buffalo, but were refused accommodation.[11][12] Du Bois' writings of the time, however, show that his original plan was to find a quiet, out of the way location for the event, and that the Erie Beach Hotel satisfied his requirements. Researcher Cynthia Van Ness has further located contemporary evidence of Buffalo hotels complying with a statewide anti-discrimination law passed in 1895.[13][14] 

I may have to travel to Cleveland in a short while, and I just may have to make the short 3 hour drive to Fort Erie, Ontario during that visit.   

Please keep a record of your research---I see you!

I am visiting Buffalo New York and will be making sure to visit Fort Erie, Ontario during this stay.  Buffalo served as an Underground Railroad terminus point for those people escaping captivity who crossed the Niagara River to reach Fort Erie Ohio.  

Macedonia Baptist Church located in Buffalo New York served as a meeting location for abolitionists. 

Also very interesting, In 1804, as principal agent opening the area for the Holland Land Company, the architect of Washington D.C., Joseph Ellicott, designed a radial street and grid system that branches out from downtown Buffalo like bicycle spokes similar to the street system he used in the nation's capital.  

Adisa!!! I am going to have to tell you what the robot said to young Will, Danger, Danger, Danger!
