True Tales of Clarion River - Contributed by Pete Smith I am in possession of a copy of True Tales of the Clarion River (#127 of 1150) printed under the auspices of the Northwestern Pennsylvania Raftsmen Association in 1933( a 1971 reprint). It is a compelation of essays written by the last few generations of those involved in the rafting /lumber/ flatboating industry on the Clarion/Allegheny/ Ohio Rivers.My mothers family(Kerrs/ Watsons/Fitzgearlds/Harmons/Porters) were involved in said industry from the War of 1812 to the end of that way of life in the 1930's. - Pete Smith
