Betsy Ann
The Betsy Ann was a sternwheel packet steamer, towboat, and an excursion boat. She was built by Iowa Iron Works in 1899. She is best remembered for participating in three steamboat races. She lasted 41 years, until 1940, when she was dismantled at the St. Louis Wharf. The Betsy Ann was the subject of the book The Log of the Betsy Ann, by Fred Way, a former captain of the boat. She served on the Ohio River, sailing from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, to Portsmouth, Ohio.
