1 REGISTER OF DESCENDING AND ASCENDING BOATS Passing Outlet Lock May 1875 Compiled by William Bauman C & O Canal Association Volunteer wdbauman@visuallink.com OCTOBER 2012

2 A. PREFACE All of this data was compiled from official Chesapeake and Ohio Canal Company records stored in Record Group 79 at the National Archives, College Park, MD. This document is a companion document to the two previous Registers of Boats Passing Lock 75 in In fact those two documents were used as a spell-check source for this document. Thus if the reader finds a boat of interest in this descending register, then backing up 5 to 10 days the same boat should be found descending past Lock 75; presuming the cargo was coal. For boats on interest found in this ascending register, that same boat should be found ascending past Lock 75 in 5 to 10 days, presuming it is a coal freighting canal boat. Notice in this register the number of scows going up and down carrying raw material for the Outlet Lock (Inclined Plane). And there are other boats that seemed to pass through the Outlet Lock too frequently to have gone to Cumberland and returned. There was no indication as to why this register was compiled for just the one month or just the one year. No money transfer was recorded. This is what was found.
