Tom Langhorne has drawn me out of lurker mode.  This response will be brief
and incomplete, but may be of some help.
 
First, Patrick Labadie of the Corps of Engineers Canal Park Museum in
Duluth, MN, is the reigning expert on Upper Great Lakes shipping, in my
book.  He maintains an extensive database and has an incredible perspective
based on significant research.
 
Second, NPS Submerged Cultural Resources Unit did a monster study of Isle
Royale NP shipwrecks that included a super background context prepared by
Dan Lenihan, Toni Carrell and others.  Unfortunately, printed in limited
copies, but persistent rumors of a popular reprinting abound.  Some
libraries and individuals have copies, too.  "Submerged Cultural Resources
Study, Isle Royale National Park" Daniel J. Lenihan, Editor, Southwest
Cultural Resources Center Professional Papers, Number 8, 1987, Santa Fe NM,
USGPO 1987-775-488/65149.  You might get it through NTIS???
 
Whitefish Point Museum is good, Ken Potts and John Halsey should be of
help.  Also, contact Kenneth Vrana, who's working with the Sea Grant
Program at MSU, I think.  I only have a home address for him: PO Box 4681,
East Lansing, MI  48826.  He did a PhD in Resource Management on submerged
resources and has been instrumental in developing underwater preserves.
 
Hope that these ramblings are of some use.  It would be a good idea,
Original Poster, to tell people just WHY you want such info.  If you did, I
missed it.
 
Pat
