First settler[edit]

The article got the name right, but he moved to Cape Girardeau in 1796 with his family. The rest came later, as stated. Sbalfour (talk) 17:31, 30 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Mississippi frozen solid?[edit]

I'm extremely dubious that the Mississippi so far south of St. Louis and just above the mouth of the Ohio actually froze solid. It's massively wide at that place. Yes, it can and did freeze solid several times around St. Louis and above in the mid-1800's, but did it freeze in winter 1799-1800 at Cape Girardeau?? I can find no record of that. It's also uncited text, and I'm inclined to elide it unless or until there's a WP:RS for it. Sbalfour (talk) 18:26, 30 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
