The website greatlakeships.org hosts a collection of archival records related to 19th and 20th-century shipping on the Great Lakes, focusing on schooners, steamboats, shipwrecks, owners, and cargoes. It is part of the Thunder Bay Research Collection housed at the Alpena County George N. Fletcher Public Library. The site offers resources to browse vessels by name, build location, and other criteria.
For more detailed shipwreck data and historical shipping records, you can explore their archive directly through the site. However, it appears that direct access to their searchable database may be restricted to certain sections of the site, which may require specific search tools or internal access.
Feel free to explore the site further at greatlakeships.org.
