Add to ORKGThe Gilchrist Transportation Company requested the construction of a vessel in 1902. For this purpose, the "F.M. Osborne" was built by the American Ship Building Company in Lorain, Ohio. In 1913-1915 the vessel was purchased by the Davidson Steamship Company. In 1915 the vessel was sold to Grand Island Steamship Company and renamed "Munising". After a 1921 rebuild by the Great Lakes Engineering Works in River Rouge, Michigan, the "Munising" was grounded on Isle Parisienne in Lake Superior in 1930. The last owner of the "Munising" was the United States Maritime Administration 1943-1954. The vessel was scrapped in the winter of 1954-1955 by the Boston Metals Company at Buffalo, New York
