Site Outline
To help visitors wade through GeorgetownSteamboats, the most frequently visited website pages and posts have been listed in the GeorgetownSteamboats Highlights Table. The site has two general classes of readers. One class is interested in Poe genealogy and Georgetown history while another group prefers general steamboat and Ohio River history. A list of “highlights” has been developed for each class of readers through analysis of the most frequently visited pages and posts provided by the POWWEB visitor stats mapped into my faves.
GeorgetownSteamboats is presented in posts and static pages. The posts have an editorial element while the pages are documentary in purpose. Images, regardless of size, are simply counted.

I recommend the following ordered list of pages and posts for a well rounded introduction to GeorgetownSteamboats.
GeorgetownSteamboats Highlights Table
In hand, I have two important original source documents: the Nancy Ann (Poe) Ebert journal and the hand written book by Benjamin M Laughlin (courtesy of the Frances and John Finley Collection). The Ebert journal in a word is fascinating. A bit of American history that should be made public. The Laughlin book adds new information to the history of steamboats from the Pittsburgh region. A look at both will be time well spent.
