I stumped upon this video from the 1970's. It's posted by Brad Swain on youtube. This is the description given;
Propeller salvaged in Lake Winnipesaukee in 1976. Thought to be from the steamship Seneca but this fact is in question because the Seneca was built and wrecked in the 1860's and the first screw-driver steamer on Winnipesaukee appeared in 1877. More to come on this mystery.
The salvage boat doesn't appear until 0:37 seconds in.
