Historical Portageville Postcard
Friday, October 16, 2015
The photo of something very familiar to former and current residents of Portageville, the old ferry landing. Michael Fisher formerly of Portageville moved after graduating from Portageville High School in 2001 to attend college. After his enlistment in the Air Force, and is on active duty in North Carolina. He found this post card at an antique shop in Sanford, NC. He thought it was a rare and interesting piece of Portageville's history. He does not recall seeing this post card, let alone a rendering, of what the Portageville-Tiptonville ferry looked like in its day. Thank You Mike Fisher for his submission.
