1812 Working Replica Boat - YouTube |
From Historic Pittsburgh:
"Mr. [Brintnall] Robbins was not only unfortunate in his ship building venture, but he also never recovered payment for the boats which he built to carry General Scott's troops across the Niagara into Canada, during the War of 1812. He died at Greensburg, Pa., in 1837." [Source]
