Gerald C. Metzler Database
Compiled from over 50 years of exhaustive research, the Gerald C. Metzler database consists of a comprehensive index of pre-1900 Great Lakes ships data. The digitization process continues as we convert over 30,000 handwritten records.
This project was made possible through the support of the Offield Family Foundation, Henry & Alice Barkhausen, and the Wisconsin Maritime Museum.
