Steamer Herbert C. Jackson has always been in the Interlake fleet. She was built in 1959 by Great Lakes Engineering Works at River Rouge, Michigan. As part of Interlake's continuing modernization program, the Jackson was converted to a self-unloader in 1975 by Defoe Shipbuilding Company at Bay City, Michigan. The Jackson is named for the late Herbert Cooper Jackson, an executive vice president and director of Pickands Mather & Company, Interlake's former parent organization.

It is unclear if weather, navigational issues, or blinding smoke caused this propeller to ground on Sawtooth Reef. After 3 days of lighering of her flour cargo, rising winds caused her back to break. Much of her gear was salvaged, but what remains may be mixed with that of the nearby James Pickands.
The Smith Moore was damaged in a collision with the James Pickands on July 13, 1889 on Lake Superior and sank near Grand Island while being towed towards shelter at Munising. She rests now in 105 feet of water with the deck at 80 ft. Much machinery is visible, and open deck hatches afford access to the interior.

The massive Pickands Mather & Co. iron ore docks in Cleveland, Ohio, in May 1902.
They existed along the south shore of the Old Channel of the Cuyahoga River. That's along what is now River Rd., between Division Ave. and Mulberry St.
This is city-owned land, and Pickands Mather leased that property in 1890. The New York, Lake Erie & Western Railroad had tracks bordering the river here. The docks were between the tracks and the water.
The docks were still there in the 1950s, but not long for this world.

The Portage Lake and Lake Superior Ship Canal Company was organized in 1864 to build a canal west from Portage Lake to Lake Superior. To help pay for it, Congress granted the company about 400,000 acres. The firm was reorganized as the Lake Superior Ship Canal, Railroad, and Iron Company in 1873. The company was sold to Frederick Ayer of Boston, who renamed it the Keweenaw Association in 1891.
The Keweenaw Association discovered iron ore in section 10, township 47 north, range 27 west that same year. They called the diggings the Section 10 Mine. The Keweenaw Association leased the undeveloped mine to Penokee and Gogebic Consolidated Mines in 1891.
Penokee and Gogebic went into receivership in 1895, and the lease was transferred to the Oliver Iron Mining Company. Corrigan, McKinney Steel took over the lease in 1928.
Pickands Mather acquired the lease in 1944. That company was acquired by Cleveland-Cliffs Corp. in 1996.
