Dave--In western Louisville they have an area named "Portland", where the boat people had to "port" their cargo during low water. Also, folks out in cyberspace may not know that Kentucky claims its northern boundary as the northern shore of the Ohio River (accoring to some date in the 1800's) instead of the middle of the river as in most other cases. (hehe) The river has changed course over the last 100 years or so, which means that KY owns the land for the racetrack in Evansville.

Back to Angel's request. The Louisville Courier-Journal newspaper has had several articles with lots of pictures and history of the falls, locks, bridges, tugs, etc.
