Researchers have finally discovered the final resting spot of the historic Gilded Age ship Western Reserve — closing the book ...
The Great Lakes Shipwreck Historical Society said they found "The Western Reserve" in more than 600 feet of water.
Rough weather conditions on 30 August 1892 caused the cargo ship to break in two and sink to the bottom of Lake Superior.
Twenty-seven people died as a result of the wreck, and what happened is only known because of its lone survivor.
