Located North of what is now Diamond City. Jacob Nave settled on the White River and began to operate a ferry near the Missouri line. Later, the land and the ferry were sold to William Thomas Raley and the ferry became known as Raley's Ferry. In the 1880's the ferry was the site for building a 110-foot steamboat the "Lady Boone". The steamboat could carry 400 bales of cotton and traveled the waterways of the White River.
