Description
The Brookhill which sank in a hurricane in 1915 has been revealed by the Mississippi’s low waters in downtown Baton Rouge.
The Brookhill is a double-hulled ferry that operated on the Mississippi River from 1896 to 1915. Approximately 100 feet long and 30-40 feet wide, the ferry carried passengers and cargo between Baton Rouge and Port Allen, Louisiana. The Istrouma served as the day ferry, while the Brookhill operated at night. A severe storm in 1915, possibly a hurricane, struck Baton Rouge the evening of September 29, sinking both ferryboats.
