Howard Shipyard Co., Jeffersonville IN

This famous shipyard was started in Jeffersonville in 1834, by James Howard, an Englishman trained in shipbuilding at William Hartshorn's shipyard in Cincinnati. In 1836, he moved his operation to Madison IN, but returned to Jeffersonville in 1848, when he was joined in the business by his brother Daniel. In 1865, when more Howards joined the firm, it was incorporated as James Howard & Co.: then, when James Howard died in 1876, control passed to his son Edmond and the name was changed to E. J. Howard & Co. Finally, in 1903, it became Howard Shipyard & Dock Co. The shipyard struggled in the depression years and closed in 1940. In 1942, however, the Navy, needing to expand the capacity of neighboring JeffBoat, took over the property and leased it to JeffBoat: thereafter the two yards operated as one. After the war, JeffBoat's owners, American Barge Line, bought Howard from the Navy and formally merged it with JeffBoat. (JeffBoat's record is available here.) Howard's history is memorialized at the Howard Steamboat Museum and its records are in the Lilly Library at the University of Indiana. The table below attempts to document Howard's output up until its merger with JeffBoat: it lists close to 1200 vessels but the hull numbers run close to 1800 - an astonishing volume. If anyone can help make this table more complete, please email info@navalmarinearchive.com.
