Steamboat Clock Collection

The first recognized practical use of steam power in America for water transportation was Robert Fulton?s Clermont on the Hudson River in 1807. By 1813, the first steamboats appeared on the Chesapeake. The Weems Steamboat Company of Baltimore City was founded in 1819 by Mr. George Weems, great uncle of Weems & Plath? founder Captain Philip Van Horn Weems. Soon Mr. Weems was sending boats several times a week between the Patuxent River and the Port of Baltimore making several stops along the way to well-known ports such as Annapolis. From George Weems? first steamboat, Surprise, to the majestic side-wheelers, Wenonah and St. Mary?s, the Weems steamboats plied the waters until 1905 when the company?s interests were sold to the Maryland, Delaware, and Virginia Railroad Company, a subsidiary of the Pennsylvania Railroad. Provided with instructions, lifetime warranty, and a fresh battery as required.
