Shickluna Shipyard Project

The Shickluna Shipyard Project is a St. Catharines-based archaeological project investigating an historic Canadian shipyard operated by Louis Shickluna (1838-1880) and Joseph Shickluna (1880-1891).

Project headquarters are currently based in the Department of History at Brock University.

Our research to date has been primarily supported by the Insight Development Grant program of the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada, as well as through contributions from collaborating institutions. Additional support and services have been generously provided by the local community.
