The Sistersville Ferry, out of service on a foggy morning in 2006
The Sistersville Ferry crosses the Ohio River between Sistersville, West Virginia and the unincorporated community of Fly, Ohio.[1] Known as the oldest ferry in West Virginia, it has been in continuous operation since 1817.[2] It is one of five ferries left on the Ohio River, and the only one along the 277 mi (446 km) stretch of the river on the West Virginia border; the others, located at Augusta, Anderson, Rising Sun and Cave-in-Rock, are all downstream, on the Kentucky portion of the river.
