Description

Photo of the sternwheel towboat built at Antiquity, Ohio in 1897. According to the Dave Thomson Gallery, the boat and crew were possibly working on some sort of dredging operation to deepen shallow channels for navigation, and at the same time harvesting sand from the river bottom, possibly while the Carrie V. was owned by the Parkersburg & Marietta Sand Co. beginning in 1906.
