''Alice Gertrude'' was a wooden steamship which operated on the Strait of Juan de Fuca and Puget Sound from 1898 to January 1907, when the vessel was wrecked at Clallam Bay. == Career== ''Alice Gertrude'' was a freight and passenger steamship built in 1898, either at Seattle, Washington according to one source,〔 or at Port Angeles, Washington according to another source.〔 The ship was built either by〔 or for〔 the brothers John Rex Thompson (1855-1926) and Fred Thompson, who were prominent citizens of early Port Angeles doing business as the Thompson Steamboat Company. The Thompsons ran steamboats to Neah Bay from Port Angeles, and ''Alice Gertrude'' was built for this route. The vessel was named for two cousins, Alice Thompson, the daughter of Fred Thompson, and Gertrude Thompson, the daughter of John Rex Thompson.〔(Clallam County Genealogical Society, Obituary Transcriptions for John Rex Thompson and Fred Thompson ) (accessed 04-30-11).〕 On January 8, 1902, Captain J. Rex Thompson sold his interest in the Thompson Steamboat Company, which included the ''Alice Gertrude'' and five other steam vessels, to the La Conner Trading and Transportation Company. In 1903 La Conner Trading and Transportation Co. effectively merged with the Puget Sound Navigation Company, and ''Alice Gertrude'' became part of the Puget Sound Navigation (PSN) fleet.〔 In 1904 ''Alice Gertrude'' and another PSN ship, ''Rosalie'' ran on alternate days, six days a week, from Pier 1 in Seattle, which was at the foot of Yesler Street, for Port Townsend and the ports on the Strait of Juan de Fuca. ''Rosalies route ended at Clallam, with ''Alice Gertrude'' proceeding further to Neah Bay.〔
