John Bowman Author, Historian, West Virginia History Hero and Steamboat Model Builder.
John’s writings concentrate on Wheeling’s boat history. Wheeling began building boats, Barges, Bateaux, Flatboats, Keelboats, and Pirogues in 1774, the first Ohio River city to build boats, and the third settlement on the ‘Western Rivers’ to have a boat building industry. ‘Western Rivers’ are rivers that flow into the Gulf of Mexico. Red Stone Old Fort now Brownsville, Pennsylvania was building boats for the Army in the 1750s. Pittsburgh was building boats for the Army in the 1760s; both were on the Monongahela River. Wheeling built the first successful steamboat, the Washington in 1815.
