Alvin Clark (schooner)
The ''Alvin Clark'' was a schooner which was constructed in 1847 and sank in Green Bay〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= ALVIN CLARK (schooner) )〕 in 1864. It was salvaged in 1969 and moored in Menominee, Michigan at the Mystery Ship Seaport, located in the Menominee River at the foot of Sixth Avenue. The ship was designated a Michigan State Historic Site in 1972 〔 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974.〔 Although the schooner was in pristine condition when raised, no plans were in place for its conservation, and the ship rapidly deteriorated.〔 The remains of the ''Alvin Clark'' were destroyed in 1994.
==Construction and operation==
The ''Alvin Clark'' was built at the Bates and Davis Shipyard in Trenton, Michigan in 1847, likely by shipmaker John Clark, who had a son named Alvin.〔 The ship was owned by Captain William M. Higgie of Racine, Wisconsin. On June 19, 1864, the ship was heading to Oconto, Wisconsin to pick up a load of lumber, running empty under full sail.〔 The captain ordered the holds cleaned, and the hatches were removed.〔 A sudden storm capsized the ship just off the shore of Chambers Island in Green Bay.〔 Captain Higgie, the mate, and another sailor were drowned; two other sailors were rescued.〔 An attempt to salvage the ship was made a few months after the wreck, but it was unsuccessful and the ''Alvin Clark'' was left on the bottom.
