Jacob Yoder

Jacob Yoder, pioneer, born in Reading, Pennsylvania, 11 August 1758 : died in Spencer County, Kentucky, 7 April 1832. He was of Swiss descent.
After serving through the American Revolutionary War in the Pennsylvania line, he built a large boat at Fort Red Stone (now Brownsville), on Monongahela River, which he freighted with flour and carried to New Orleans in May, 1782. With the profits of this venture he bought peltries which he sold in Havana, investing the proceeds in sugar for the Philadelphia market. This was the first attempt to navigate the Ohio and Mississippi rivers for commercial purposes. Subsequently he settled in Spencer County, Kentucky, and took part in equipping and keeping in the field the military forces in the northwest territory.
He is known for his invention of the flatboat.
