larger canoe. They made frequent
stops including the "Maringo Town"
Captina Creek, the mouth of the
Muskinggum,, Little Hooking and
ended their journey at the mouth of
the Great Kanawha. On the return
trip Washington and Capt. Crawford
walked from the "Ohio Bend" eight
miles across the land neck-now in
Letart township Meigs county, says
Randall. They again took the canoe
and made one more stop, at Mingo
Bottom, now in Jefferson county a
little over two miles below Steuben-
vile. The trip occupied about two
months.
Washington at one time owned
some thirty thousand acres of land
on or near the Ohio river over three
thousand of which were on the Little
Miami, within present Ohio and his
holdings bordered the Ohio river for
sixteen miles.
