First owned and operated by American Revolutionary War General Henry Knox between 1794 and 1806, it was briefly revived in 1847-50, but was not financially successful. It provided for transport of goods from near the river's headwaters in Searsmont to the head of navigation at Warren. A few elements of the canal survive today, and its route was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1970.〔 ==1793 canal== In 1793 Charles Barrett, a local businessman, was granted a charter to establish a canal on the Saint George River to facilitate the transport of lumber. He constructed wooden locks at Warren's Upper Falls and a few miles further upriver at Hart's Falls, enabling river transport as far upstream as Seven Tree Pond in Union. Henry Knox purchased Barrett's operation in 1794, and operated it until his death in 1806. Knox raised the dam at Upper Falls, eliminating the need for the locks at Hart's Falls, also relocating milling operations in the process. The lock was damaged by a spring freshet one year had to be rebuilt. The canal was abandoned after Knox's death, although interest in improved transport along the river continued.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=NRHP nomination for Georges River Canal )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Georges River Canal」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
