Here's a neat story about some pictures of Cincinnati's riverfront from 1848. I realizes these aren't "Civil War" photographs, but they are still rather neat and show several steamboats in them. I imagine this area - a very important trade region even in 1861 - did not look terribly different by the start of the war.
