Lake Carriers' Association records
Collection Organization
The economic and policy history of the Great Lakes region receives extensive documentation for the 20th century through the files of the Lake Carriers' Association. The files form a body of information covering well over a century. Statistical data compiled in Lake Carriers' Association files extends the scope of the collection back to 1860.
The shipping industry, of course, receives particular emphasis through documentation of ship design, equipment updates, weather and safety concerns, profits and threats to them, lobbying activities, and the impact of shipping on lake-side cities. Additional research benefits accrue from files on changes in the Great Lakes environment caused by pollution.
Domestic and international politics can be examined from files on the creation and operation of the St. Lawrence Seaway.
Those interested in the membership of the LCA will find vessel personnel death beneficiary files and card files available for the period c. 1910-1970. These files are especially valuable for genealogical research.
The series on the diversion of Lake Michigan water through Chicago's sanitary canal into the Mississippi River drainage system records an ongoing controversy pitting economic and political interests from Minnesota to the St. Lawrence valley against each other for the period 1912-1966. Assessments of environmental, economic, and political consequences for lowering or raising Great Lakes water levels are clearly stated throughout these files by forces favoring and opposing the Chicago diversions.
Navigation issues are addressed in a series of files regarding the Coast Guard (1932- 1975) and the Lake Carriers' Survey of harbor improvements (1927-1951). In particular, the survey files document the impact on urban geography in places such as Cleveland, Ohio where extensive alterations to the harbor and the Cuyahoga River are documented through letters, maps, and photographs.
The technological aspects of communications and navigation on the Great Lakes can be examined through files on radio apparatus introduced to the freighter fleets from the 1930s into the 1970s. The involvement of the Lake Carriers' Association with the Radio Technical Commission for Marine Services is well illustrated.
One of the largest series in the LCA collection is the subject correspondence file. Here, records span the period from 1860 to 1985. Commercial traffic, statistics on commodities transported, working conditions, political issues, and environmental concerns are all documented in the subject correspondence.
Most cartographic items, photographs, and ephemera have been interfiled in the Chart Collection, Main Photograph Collection, and General Reference and Pamphlet collections, respectively. Scrapbooks kept by the Association have been microfilmed; HCGL does not hold the originals.

Committees, 1860-1983
Box 1-2, 115-116, 125-126, 166-169, 178-181
Series contains files of Lake Carriers' Association committees concerned with internal organization of the association and with issues regarding shipping on the Great Lakes. These records document the period 1860-1983. Committees for Defense Planning (1938-1945, 1950-1958), Lake Vessels (1942-1950, 1973), Shore Captains (1936-1980), Transportation Study (1966-1972), Navigation (1860-1970), and Merchant Marine Council (1958-1960) have the greatest quantity of documents. Other committees may have longer chronological spans, but do not hold as many records.
