WeirsBeachBoater:

Would you mind checking your copy of “Farewell Old Mount Washington” for me again? Is there any mention of John S. Wadleigh being the pilot of the steamboat Lady of the Lake? He was Winborn A. Sanborn’s son-in-law and became the pilot after Winborn’s retirement or passing. He was mentioned as being the pilot in a newspaper article in 1885. I am interested in learning more about him and the Sanborn / Wadleigh families. Thanks again for your help.
