Do not feel anything in floorboards.
Front end does not bounce abnormally.
Rear end.......not so sure.Will check.
Yes an alignment has been done by the local Chevrolet dealer.
Other driveability problems: Slight vibration at 65, goes away at 70. What do think it could be?
One at a time:
Front end sounds like I hit a pothole - This on first glance would have me looking for loose steering and suspension components.

Can feel it in the steering wheel & Minor shimmy felt hitting railroad tracks - If you can feel a shimmy on bumps, I would have the alignment done by someone who specializes in it and it would be a four wheel alignment.

Slight vibration at 65, goes away at 70. - Again, a front end alignment or possible cord seperation on a tire.

You may have a combination of problems. The loud noise upon hitting a bump could be the rear tortion mounts coupled with a much needed alignment. My recommendation would be the front end alignment (four wheel) and have them check the suspension and those rear tortion arm mounts.
