Description: In January 1856, Margaret Garner, along with family members and several other slaves, crossed a frozen Ohio River into Cincinnati. Garner and her family hid with a relative who was free, but they were soon found. That's when Margaret Garner slit the throat of her 2-year-old daughter, killing her so that the child would not be returned to slavery. Garner attempted to kill her other children and herself, but she was stopped. Kentucky.com
