In 1994 the shipwreck site was added to the National Register of Historic Places.[1] HistoryOriginally called the City of Naples, the Frank O'Connor was built in West Bay City, Michigan in 1892.[2] The vessel was renamed in 1916.[3] On September 29, 1919, Frank O'Connor left Buffalo, New York en route to Milwaukee, Wisconsin carrying 3,000 tons of coal.[4] Three days later, she passed through the Straits of Mackinac and was expected to make port ahead of schedule. On October 3 at 4:00 p.m., a fire broke out in the bow. Roughly an hour later, the ship's steering gear was destroyed by the fire, leaving it drifting in the water about two miles off the coast of Cana Island. The keeper of the Cana Island Light had noticed the burning vessel from land and, along with his assistant, was able to tow the O'Connor{{'}}s crew on their lifeboats to shore. A portion of the Frank O'Connor{{'}}s cargo was later recovered, but the ship itself remained lost.[5] Despite the fire, most of Frank O'Connor′s machinery remained intact and upright, making it a popular archaeological and recreational site. The ship is owned by the State of Wisconsin and the site is managed by the Wisconsin Historical Society and the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources.[6] She lies in {{convert|50|to|67|ft|m}} of water about {{convert|2|mi|km|0}} off Cana Island.[7] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://historical-places.findthedata.org/l/60794/FRANK-O-CONNOR-bulk-carrier|title=Frank O'Connor (bulk carrier): North Bay, Wisconsin|publisher=Find the Data.org|accessdate=2012-02-10}} {{Registered Historic Places}}{{World's largest wooden ships}}{{1919 shipwrecks}}{{italic title|string=Frank O'Connor}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Frank O'Connor}}2. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.wisconsinshipwrecks.org/explore_oconnor_serv.cfm|title=Service History|publisher=Wisconsin Shipwrecks.org|accessdate=2012-02-10}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.wisconsinshipwrecks.org/explore_oconnor_serv3.cfm|title=Service History page 3|publisher=Wisconsin Shipwrecks.org|accessdate=2012-02-10}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.wisconsinshipwrecks.org/explore_oconnor_final.cfm|title=Final Voyage|publisher=Wisconsin Shipwrecks.org|accessdate=2012-02-10}} 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.wisconsinshipwrecks.org/explore_oconnor_final2.cfm|title=Final Voyage page 2|publisher=Wisconsin Shipwrecks.org|accessdate=2012-02-10}} 6. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.wisconsinshipwrecks.org/explore_oconnor_today4.cfm|title=Today page 4|publisher=Wisconsin Shipwrecks.org|accessdate=2012-02-10}} 7. ^{{cite book |last=Kohl |first=Cris |title=The Great Lakes Diving Guide |location=West Chicago, Ill. |publisher=Seawolf Communications, Inc. |year=2001}} 7 : 1892 ships|Shipwrecks of Lake Michigan|Shipwrecks of the Wisconsin coast|Shipwrecks on the National Register of Historic Places in Wisconsin|National Register of Historic Places in Door County, Wisconsin|Maritime incidents in 1919|Ships built by James Davidson |
