About Henry Clay
Henry Clay was an American side paddle wheel steamboat. Built in 1851, it caught fire while on a run on the Hudson River between Albany, New York and New York City on July 28, 1852. Between 50 and over 80 of its over 500 passengers died in what was the river's worst steam disaster, near Riverdale, in The Bronx, New York. It was the deadliest steamboat disaster in New York City, until the burning of the PS General Slocum in 1904.
