A New Look at the Sultana Disaster-- Part 4: Last and Found

From Wikipedia.

There was an East Tennessee Sultana Survivors Association which met every April 27th until 1928, when just four remained.  The last survivor, Samuel H. Randebaugh, of Co. K, 65th Ohio, died March 4, 1931 at age 83.

The remains of the Sultana (most likely the ship) were found in 1982, 32-feet under a soybean field on the Arkansas side of the Mississippi River, about four miles from Memphis. The reason for it being found here is the constant shifting of the river.
