Off the top of my head, I recall Robert L. Ireland, Carrolton, Frank Billings, John S. Manuel, and John Stanton being dismantled by Fraser-Nelson. Charlers S. Hebard was going to be, but received a reprieve and is still, in a way, with us. Others can probably add several more.

Yes, the Ford was scrapped at Duluth not Fraser Shipyards. I can only remember of the Frontenac being the only large vessel ever scrapped at Fraser.

If it was the light panel at father time antiques, that was originally listed as being from.the tug Lake Superior. No idea if its true or not. Also the last vessel scrapped at fraser was i believe the Frontenac after her ground in Silver Bay.

I just picked up a light panel from a ship at an antique store and all I know about it is that the pickers got it from fraser, so besides the old JB Ford has anybody else been scrapped by fraser in the twin ports in the last few years? it has fore and aft mast lights so it's probably from a full size ship and was made by henschel Corp in mass.
