Georgiana was one of the last steamboats on the historic Portland-Astoria run. Her last captain on the run was Arthur Riggs, (1870-1941) whose own life spanned the great days of steamboating on the Columbia and Willamette rivers. Captain Riggs had begun in steamboating in 1887 on the Isabel on the Willamette and Yamhill rivers, and later served on many famous boats throughout the Pacific Northwest, including Multnomah, Telegraph and Telephone.  Georgiana had been an interim boat between the flamboyant old paddlewheelers and the modern steel excursion boats, and her trade might have continued had war not disrupted it.

Family Contribution: 
Family lore has it that he led a wagon train from St Louis, but I think he and his family were only part of a train. He, his wife, Nancy Jane Melton, and son, Marshall, came to the Willamette valley via wagon train, I think in the 1850's. He definitely is a pioneer.  His son Marshall returned and joined another wagon train later in the 50's to return to Oregon.  Marshall's son John Nelson Roberts is my grandfather also buried in the cemetery.  (By Mike Proffitt)
