Carl Hugh Jones, the river historian and researcher, compiled the data presented in the following table. He charges a small fee to search his files and books for information on steamboat captains and crew. For my request, he researched all the steamboat licensed men from Georgetown, PA. His results produced thirty names rather than the twenty known to me. If you have a similar requirement, Mr Jones can be reached at the following email addr: Carl Hugh Jones
I will add this table to one of the static pages in the near future.
