Robinson's Ferry
In 1848 John W. Robinson and Stephen Mead established ferry transport for freight, animals, and persons across river. In 1856 Harvey Wood purchased interest and later acquired property which was maintained by Wood family until 1911. Charges were 50 cents for each passenger, horse, jenny, or other animal.
