Happy 2025! I plan to post more blogs and add content to this website. However, it will garner more attention after I retire in November. The start January, I am posting several photos and a newspaper article related to the Ohio River’s greatest flood in January 1937. These photos are part of the family history I’m scanning and sharing.

Cannelton Indiana at the height of the 1937 flood. My grandparents’ house is on the upper right edge. It has a sloped roof. It was above the crest.

Flooded houses closer to the river channel in January 1937.

A newspaper article in February 1937 – about my grandfather who accurately predicted the crest in Cannelton, Indiana.
