: Hello,
:
: I am writing a book about the Chesapeake Bay
: steamers to be published late 2006 by
: Arcadia Publishing. It will be
: photo-intensive, and I am asking historical
: societies in the region if they have photos
: relating to transportation on the bay,
: and/or if they know of families in their
: areas that might have old photographs of bay
: travel in their family collections. Thanks
: in advance if you can point me to possible
: sources, and best regards in any case.

: Thanks

: Try the Chesapeake Beach Railway Museum. They have a collection of steamer memorabilia because Chesapeake Beach was a steamer destination for many years. Harriet Stout is the curator there. She can also put you in touch with other historians. www.cbrm.org
