File:Plymouth - Lake Huron shipwrecks.jpg

English: Description via NOAA: "In 1854 noted shipwrights Stephenson & Lafrinier of Ohio City, Ohio launched the 225-foot, 776-ton steamerPlymouth. Three decades later the aging vessel was converted to a 213-foot long, 3 mast schooner barge used primarily in the lumber trade. In 1912 the ship made history by carrying 100,000 seven foot long cedar posts on the Menominee River. A year later Plymouth was being towed by the tug James H. Martin from Menominee bound for Lake Huron. The tug and barge could not make headway against the building storm so the Plymouth anchored in the lee of St. Martins Island at the mouth of Green Bay. When the Martin returned the Plymouth and its crew of seven were nowhere to be found."
