Description


Alvin Clark (schooner)

The Alvin Clark was a schooner which was constructed in 1847 and sank in Green Bay 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 [2] and listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974.[1] Although the schooner was in pristine condition when raised, no plans were in place for its conservation, and the ship rapidly deteriorated.[3] The remains of the Alvin Clark were destroyed in 1994.
