G. A. Kirwan

G. A. Kirwan was a Chesapeake Bay pungy built in 1882 at Madison, Maryland, by Joseph W. Brooks. The vessel also appears in records under the fuller name Geneva A Kirwan, a reminder that initials and formal vessel names often move back and forth in nineteenth-century reporting.

The strongest visual record is the set of Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum items connected with the vessel. These include Louis J. Feuchter drawings of the pungy, rigging views, and a group of photographs placing G. A. Kirwan at Webster's pier or wharf in Baltimore. The museum evidence gives unusual visual detail for a commercial pungy: rig, deck, after-cabin, and late-life hull views are all represented.

Newspaper evidence places the vessel in ordinary Bay work over several decades. Early reports identify her in oyster work, including an 1883 injury aboard the schooner while dredging. Later notices connect the vessel with cargos and port movements through Baltimore, Annapolis, Norfolk, and other Chesapeake routes. The selected pages show the vessel as part of the working traffic of the Bay rather than as a one-event historical subject.

By the twentieth century, newspaper notices and later museum records show a long-lived workboat with a visible afterlife at Baltimore waterfront sites. Dated drawings and photographs place G. A. Kirwan at Webster's Pier or Wharf from 1930 through 1935, then describe the vessel after settling at the pier and later on the flats off Point Breeze after being raised and abandoned. The surviving evidence does not yet supply a continuous ownership chain or final legal disposition, but it does document the vessel's passage from commercial use into a recorded hulk and preservation memory.

8888.0059.0000.00	documents	Captain Irvin S. Wheatley Ship's Papers<CR><CR>Backgro		Range, Cir 01/01/1885 - 12/31/1894		This collection begins on CSC 15D1 and continues onto 15D2.Captain Irvin S. Wheatley Ship's PapersBackgroundA large number of documents were donated to the museum by Karen Potter a descendent of the Wheatleys through her paternal grandmother's family. The papers consist of bills, receipts, invoices, and business and personal papers, mostly related to the activities of the two-masted trading schooner Edward L. Martin during the last two decades of the 19'h century.What is known about Captain Irvin Steven Ralph Wheatley (January 19, 1860-March 14, 1941) can be gleaned from the papers in this collection, U.S. Census records, and an internet genealogy. Born January 19, 1860, he was from a large family of Galestown, Dorchester County, Maryland, about twelve miles from Seaford, Delaware. He was captain of the schooner Hattie C. Wheatley for some time before becoming captain of the Martin from about 1885 until 1894. He owned shares in the Martin varying from one-third to one-eighth at different times during those years. Subsequently he was captain of the schooner John Q. Ferguson from January 1895 until at least December 1896. Irvin Wheatley had five brothers, two of whom died as children. The survivors were: Luther Elijah (June 1858-December 1931); George Edward (November 1856-July 1927); and Albert Ellis (September 1873-February 1955), and Frederick Seth (August 1858-August 1874). Of these, Luther figures most prominently in this collection. From personal letters (Box 7), it appears that while Irvin Wheatley was busy as captain of various ships, Luther managed a farm Irvin owned near Galestown. Irvin Wheatley apparently retired from the sea about 1897 and also took up farming. In 1930 both Irvin and his wife, Effie L. (October 1, 1866-August 11, 1935), still resided near Galestown.The schooner Edward L. Martin's official No. was 135629. She was built by Stephen (?) W. Kinsey in Sussex County, Delaware in 1882. She was of 84.95 gross, and 80.70 net tonnage. Her dimensions in feet were 87.2 length, 23.6 breadth, and 6.8 depth. About 1942, after running through numerous owners, she was bought by John B. Conway, converted to power, renamed Honey B, and put into the "dude" boat trade. In 1953 she was bought by Hugh B. Emmons and was destroyed the same year by fire near Oxford, Maryland.Scope and ContentThe core of this collection is an extremely comprehensive set of commercial shipping documents covering the period from 1885 to 1894. These include shipping instructions from the consignee of cargo, charter parties (contracts between shippers and vessel owners, shipping articles (agreements between ship owners and crews), and numerous other papers relating to the shipping business. Of special interest in this collection are the papers related to two trips made by the Edward L. Martin to the Bahamas to pick up loads of pineapples. These papers include instructions, charter parties, articles, as well as the many customs forms, clearances, quarantine receipts, and health certificates required at U. S. ports and from Bahamian authorities. (At the time the Bahamas were part of the British West Indies.)Sub'ectsMembers of Wheatley family: Effie L., wife of IrvinAddie E., and Roxie E., daughters of Irvin Luther E., brotherPhenie, wife of Luther Albert E., brother George E.
