When a Mr. Patten built at Meredith a barge like vessel with double paddlewheels connected to a treadmill for one or two horses to walk on, Winnipesaukee had its first horseboat. Many more were put into operation, effectively caring for the Lake traffic from 1837 until after the first steamers were proven practical and put on regular schedule. The last one of record was owned by Captain Leander Lavallee from 1878 to 1890.

Mr. Lavallee -- Distant Relative?
 
I always wondered if Mr. Lavallee was a distant relative as his name is spelled the same as mine. He's buried in the Bayside Cemetery and if you're returning from Weirs and about to turn right onto Union Ave, Mr. Lavallee's grave stone is facing you.
