--------------D1FDFBF77AD036CB0713BB95 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Dear Group: We have several 8th grade classes doing a project on "tall tale" figures. The students need to find whether these people were of myth or really existed. We have exhausted every avenue on the Internet and books readily available. I have tried Stumpers. What information can any of you provide on Steamboat Bill? Was his name really Bill Canfield? I think that I might find the information in A Treasury of Mississippi River Folklore by Botkin but I am not sure. Any help would be appreicated. Margaret M.
