This Small schooner was built by William Jamieson in Deseronto in 1877. One of the last schooners to ply Lake Ontario. Bound Oswego for Napanee wtih a load of coal in Nov 1922 for the Schuster Coal Company. She met with heavy weather. Captain Harry Mitchell, with the assistance of the cook, Mrs Mary Lloyd, and a boy named Hugh Hanna, navigated her safety to Timber Island that night. Anchors were cast but could not hold, and the rudder post was broken. After he and crew went ashore, her anchor chain broke and she drifted out and sank between Timber I and Nine Mile Point.

The Last people to see the Kattie Eccles was actually the crew of the Lyman Davis which had grounded on Waupoos Island during the same storm.]]> en-us Gallery 2 RSS Module, version 1.1.0 Fri, 10 Feb 2012 09:58:36 -0500 120 http://www.kingstonunderwater.com/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=947 http://www.kingstonunderwater.com/main.php?g2_itemId=942 http://www.kingstonunderwater.com/main.php?g2_itemId=2657 http://www.kingstonunderwater.com/main.php?g2_itemId=2657 ]]> photo Thu, 4 Sep 2008 15:27:28 -0400 http://www.kingstonunderwater.com/main.php?g2_itemId=2652 http://www.kingstonunderwater.com/main.php?g2_itemId=2652 ]]> photo Thu, 4 Sep 2008 15:27:23 -0400 http://www.kingstonunderwater.com/main.php?g2_itemId=2647 http://www.kingstonunderwater.com/main.php?g2_itemId=2647 ]]> photo Thu, 4 Sep 2008 15:27:19 -0400 http://www.kingstonunderwater.com/main.php?g2_itemId=2642 http://www.kingstonunderwater.com/main.php?g2_itemId=2642 ]]> photo Thu, 4 Sep 2008 15:27:15 -0400 http://www.kingstonunderwater.com/main.php?g2_itemId=2041 http://www.kingstonunderwater.com/main.php?g2_itemId=2041 ]]> photo Thu, 28 Aug 2008 08:15:03 -0400 http://www.kingstonunderwater.com/main.php?g2_itemId=1010 http://www.kingstonunderwater.com/main.php?g2_itemId=1010 ]]> photo Wed, 23 Jul 2008 10:24:56 -0400 http://www.kingstonunderwater.com/main.php?g2_itemId=998 http://www.kingstonunderwater.com/main.php?g2_itemId=998 ]]> photo Wed, 23 Jul 2008 10:24:55 -0400 http://www.kingstonunderwater.com/main.php?g2_itemId=994 http://www.kingstonunderwater.com/main.php?g2_itemId=994 ]]> photo Wed, 23 Jul 2008 10:24:55 -0400 http://www.kingstonunderwater.com/main.php?g2_itemId=1006 http://www.kingstonunderwater.com/main.php?g2_itemId=1006 ]]> photo Wed, 23 Jul 2008 10:24:55 -0400 http://www.kingstonunderwater.com/main.php?g2_itemId=1002 http://www.kingstonunderwater.com/main.php?g2_itemId=1002 ]]> photo Wed, 23 Jul 2008 10:24:55 -0400
