The 1889 Johnstown Flood (Pennsylvania) History Washed Away (Old World Photographs)

Howdy ya’ll. Today we will look at some incredible photographs of Johnstown, Pennsylvania taken in the days directly after the Great Johnstown Flood of 1889. While this cataclysmic event has been immortalized through countless retellings of the history, memorials, and even a feature film, what’s often not discussed are the events that led up to this epic calamity. We will dive into the current narrative history of the South Fork Dam, The Old Reservoir, The Pennsylvania Main Line Canal System, and the Elite Hunting and Fishing Club which eventually took control of, and subsequently ignored maintenance of, the South Fork Dam. We will analyze the images, while ending the video discussing the ramifications this event had on future court proceedings when it comes to liability. The Johnstown Flood quite literally reshaped American History, and yet when the town was washed away, so went with it a key piece of early America.
