Thanks for the good answers. The coal coming by lakeboat makes perfect sense. The Port of Milwaukee was a major one, something had to ship in bulk. Before this I was thinking the coal came up from the Ill. fields, although didn't there use to be a fair amount of coal mined in eastern Iowa? <br />Anyway, thanks again.
