The
BELLE McGOWAN is one of the earliest boats that JW mentions in his
journal. He writes the names of the boats Captain and Steward during 1887.
Other entries occur during 1898 with
the last entry being on September 3, 1898.
The
photo on the left above is dated during the same time period as the repairs mentioned
in 1898. During this time period she was owned by the W. W.
O'Neil Boat Yard, note the WW painted on the barge.
