Episode #2 In Search of the Steamboat Malta (sank 1841) Welcome back to Episode #2 in a series of stories about the search for the sunken steamboat Malta. Beginning this fall-winter 2014, we will bring you along as we visit everything from research libraries to the location where the Malta was last seen. In this episode you will be introduced to the Steamboat Malta and to the part owner of the boat, Pierre Chouteau Jr., a member of the famous Chouteau family of St. Louis, Missouri known for building a financial empire from the fur trade. For those of you interested in helping with the research … Please make yourselves apart of the team and forward any bit of information you may come across regarding this steamboat. We have already complied a good bit of info, but believe there is yet much to discover. Enjoy the movie … and welcome to the search. Happy Hunting, David Hawley vimeo/76759380
