Subject: archaeology at shipyards


I am writing up the excavation of an 1870s-1972 iron/steel shipyard in, of
all places, Dubuque Iowa, along the Mississippi River. Although I have
found a bit of gray literature about some of the largest shipyards in the
country and also about Colonial wooden shipyards, I am having difficulty
locating anything about shipyards on the Mississippi tributaries, or of
small scale yet using iron manufacture, elsewhere in the country. I am
looking for references to archaeological shipyard reports, even if there
was no excavation involved.

Thanks in advance.

Cindy
