My 4x-Great-Grandfather Isaiah Trump was killed in a steamboat accident between the Peabody and the West Point. He was in the 100th Pennsylvania Company D. I want to know if his body was ever recovered. His name was Isaiah, but some news accounts has his name listed as Isaac.
Here some additional information about the crash:
