 The largest ( long by wide) steamboat stationed on the Suwannee, "City of Hawkinsville" transported lumber and supplies from Branford to Cedar Key for the next two decades.Some of the supplies would include construction materials for the railroads that would end the need for the steamboat itself.In 1922, the steamboat was abandoned in the Suwanee near what is now the railroad trestle built across the river, reducing the need for a boat to cross the river at that point.
