Officials with the Great Lakes Shipwreck Historical Society announced this week that the remains of a 1909 shipwreck were discovered partially intact at the bottom of Lake Superior.
Historians in Michigan recently announced that a shipwreck dating back more than a century has been discovered at the bottom of Lake Superior. The Adella Shores, a wooden steamship built in 1894, was carrying salt to Duluth, Minnesota, when it mysteriously disappeared on May 1, 1909. None of the ship's 14 sailors were ever heard from again, according to the Great Lakes Shipwreck Historical Society , located in Paradise, Michigan.
The GLSHS waited until the 115th commemoration of the ship's disappearance before announcing that the wreck was discovered a few years ago. The ship was spotted in the summer of 2021 thanks to the GLSHS's side-scan sonar system. Researchers found the remains of the ship's boiler, its cargo hold, its port bow and more on the bottom of Lake Superior. Although debris was found, there was no sign of the sailors' remains.
