Scope and Contents note

The collection was arranged by the creator, and order has been kept in its original format. Each page contains a page number, which corresponds to an index (reproduced in this finding aid), with information indexed by steamboat name or river personality name. Most of the newspapers clipped and photocopied are from around the Keokuk, Iowa area, such as teh Daily Gate City, the Constitution-Democrat, and the Daily Consitution, though on occasion newspapers from farther afield have been clipped as well. Clippings cover river news from around Keokuk and the Upper Mississippi River Valley, such as arrivals and departures and races. There is also extensive coverage of steamboat disasters, ranging from the entirety of the Mississippi and Ohio River Valleys and Great Lakes region. News and obituaries of important river personages are also contained in the collection, as well as a few photocopies of bills of lading and licenses.
