Details

Directory of Points and Landings on Rivers and Bayous, Mississippi Watershed

The various Points and Landings along the rivers and other waterways found in the middle of the United States including the following states: ALABAMA, ARKANSAS, FLORIDA, GEORGIA, INDIANA, ILLINOIS, KENTUCKY, IOWA, LOUISIANA, MINNESOTA, MISSISSIPPI, MISSOURI, NEBRASKA, OHIO, TENNESSEE, TEXAS AND WISCONSIN. This book was written by Louis A. Adam, River Clerk of the Factors' and Traders' Insurance Co. in 1877.

The real value of this book is for the identification of points of interest found in many of the Civil War references. Especially in personal correspondence from the soldiers in the field to family and friends back home. They will describe where they are using local terminology which includes points along the rivers and water ways that give the details today's researcher might not be able to identify. The exact locations might seem vague to readers today, but they do narrow the search to a closer range. Much information can be gleaned from this reference source.
