Additional Details:
The Robert Miller Ferry that crosses the Ohio River about every fifteen minutes day and night at Rockport, Indiana, has concrete approaches on both shores. As the Ferry boat comes from Kentucky, the view of the Indiana shore and the very high bluffs on which rockport is located are beautiful. A short distance from here the young man Abraham Lincoln embarked as a boatman for New Orleans on a Flatboat.
