Of possible interest[edit]

Some possible sources:

Biography of Louis Shickluna in the bulletin of the Toronto Marine Historical Society. Historical societies are volunteer-run and don't have the oversight of a research journal, so generally not a high-quality reliable source.
He Built 120 Ships Toronto Telegram (webhosted at Maritime History of the Great Lakes). Same text as the source used in the article, but also has a photograph with caption.
Mighty Maltese of Shipman's Corner another Toronto Telegram article, this from 1947.
Papa of Plenty Toronto Telegram 1947.
Shickluna's Ships had Long Lives Toronto Telegram 1948
Shickluna's Latest Launch St Catherines Constitutional 1864
brief article Daily British Whig on drydock expansion, 1881
Obituary Notes – A Prince Among Shipbuilders in the Mail (Toronto)

It seems like every ship launching was an event to cover for the local press, so potentially a lot to sift through. – Reidgreg (talk) 18:50, 4 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, I'll check these out at some point. My to-do list grows ever bigger :) I was just glad to at least start an article about this piece of local history. Clovermoss🍀 (talk) 19:05, 4 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
