Edna E. Lockwood
The ''Edna E. Lockwood'' is a Chesapeake Bay bugeye, the last working oyster boat of her kind. She is located at the Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum in Saint Michaels, Maryland. She was built in 1889 at Tilghman Island, Maryland by John B. Harrison and is of nine-log construction, similar to the smaller log canoe, and was launched on October 5, 1889 for Daniel Haddaway, at a cost of $2,200. She worked for at least seven sets of owners from 1899 until 1967, and was then sailed as a yacht until donated to the museum in 1973. The museum undertook an extensive restoration of the ''Lockwood'' from 1975 through 1979, which restored the bugeye to its 1910 appearance with the "patent stern" that had been added sometime prior to that year. She is the last bugeye retaining the sailing rig and working appearance of the type. Her length is , with a beam and a draft of with the centerboard up, and a maximum sail area of approximately 1700 square feet.
==History==
The ''Lockwood'' was boatbuilder John B. Harrison's seventh bugeye, of the 18 he would build. Harrison was 24 years old when he built the ''Lockwood'' for Daniel W. Haddaway. Haddaway dredged for oysters from Tilghman Island with the ''Lockwood'' until 1892, when he sold the boat to James A. Roe and Richard T. Richardson. In 1895 Roe bought out Richardson, then sold ''Lockwood'' to John F. Tall, who operated from Cambridge, Maryland on the Choptank River. Tall installed the patent stern, wheel steering gear and powered dredge gear. Tall sold ''Lockwood'' to William H. Warfield in 1910, who in turn sold her to J. Hilleary Wingate in 1912, but the next year Warfield re-acquired a partial interest in the boat. Wingate eventually became sole owner and retained ownership until 1955, when he sold ''Lockwood'' to Nettie Wingate. From 1910 the ''Lockwood'' was homeported in Baltimore, but returned to Cambridge in 1923. From 1910 she oystered in the winter and hauled produce to Baltimore from the Eastern Shore of Maryland in the summer.〔
Nettie Wingate sold the ''Lockwood'' to William Jones, Jr. in 1956, who in turn sold her to John Robin Kimberly. Kimberly used the ''Lockwood'' for dredging in 1966 and 1967. He donated the boat to the Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum in 1973.〔
