Navigability Question for Indiana Rivers in 1909
A War Department inquiry from February 1909 reviewed whether the St. Joseph, St. Marys, and Maumee rivers in Indiana were legally navigable. The memorandum cites Supreme Court definitions of navigable waterways and discusses historic uses as highways for commerce, noting determinations depend on actual use rather than only statutory declarations. It notes evidence about the rivers being navigable in earlier times and references the possibility of waterways serving as provincial channels for interstate trade.
