When I asked Chuck about the Miami Bottom he replied "I believe the Miami Bottom Lewis refers to is an area of rich farming land in Ohio that is subject to periodic flooding, hence supposedly good soil - as you suspected." With Chuck's approval we will post the full content of both letters. They are very interesting and give a feel for life back then. One letter even has the envelope it was mailed in.
