Was the Fort Henry the one that was towed as a barge between Windsor and Thunder Bay carrying lumber for a short period? Or was that the Fort York?
Hello Mr. Link. Yes it was the Fort York that was used to in the lumber trade for a shot time during the 1980s. This is covered in the book: Great Lakes Shipping Log 1980-1989 that came out early this year.
