The ferry was operated by William Graham, who kept a tavern at the northwest corner of Wood and Water Street. The ferry was in operation until 1818, when it was replaced by the Monongahela Bridge, in which he was a shareholder. One of Beltzhoover's coal wagons was on the bridge when it collapsed in 1832. [2] The collapsed north end of the bridge was re-built, and the bridge re-opened on 29 October 1832. The bridge was destroyed in The Great Fire of Pittsburgh on 10 April 1845. [3]MineIn 1825, he opened a mine on the northern side of Mt. Washington, across the river from the town of Pittsburgh. This penetrated the hill to the southern side in 1861, and was later enlarged to become the Pittsburgh and Castle Shannon Tunnel. SlaveryHe was a slaveholder, with child slaves registered in the county courthouse.[4] Death and intermentBeltzhoover died in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania on August 7, 1835.[5] His grave is located at the Allegheny Cemetery in Pittsburgh (section 16, lot 135).
