<h3>Ship Name and Designation History</h3>
This section lists the names and designations that the ship had during
its lifetime.

<h3>Naval Covers</h3>
This section lists active links to the pages displaying covers associated with the
ship. There should be a separate set of pages for each name of the ship (for
example, Bushnell AG-32 / Sumner AGS-5 are different names for the same
ship so there should be one set of pages for Bushnell and one set for Sumner).
Covers should be presented in chronological order (or as best as can be determined).

Since a ship may have many covers, they may be split among many pages so it doesn't
take forever for the pages to load. Each page link should be accompanied by a date
range for covers on that page.

</ol>
<p> </p>

<h3>Postmarks</h3>
This section lists examples of the postmarks used by the ship. There should be a
separate set of postmarks for each name and/or commissioning period. Within each set,
the postmarks should be listed in order of their classification type. If more than one
postmark has the same classification, then they should be further sorted by date of
earliest known usage.

A postmark should not be included unless accompanied by a close-up image and/or an
image of a cover showing that postmark. Date ranges MUST be based ONLY ON COVERS IN
THE MUSEUM and are expected to change as more covers are added.
<br/> <br/>
>>> If you have a better example for any of the postmarks, please feel free to replace the
existing example.

<h3>Other Information</h3>
"...Ohio was sold by Israel Snow of Rockland Maine, in 1884 to a group of investors from Greenport, New York. The ship was purchased for the copper in the hull, and was going to be scrapped. The ship was towed to Greenport Harbor and dismantled. The figurehead of Hercules was purchased by John Aldrich, who later sold it to a hotel in Hampton Bays, it was later moved to Stony Brook and currently is displayed in a pavilion near the water in downtown Stony Brook. The hull was towed to a quiet section of Greenport harbor and was loaded up with dynamite and oil was poured on it. A large crowd of locals gathered to witness the demolition, apparently Robert Corey who was the man to set off the explosion miscalculated how fast it would happen, and was killed when an iron bolt hit him in the head. The wreck was allowed to decay into the harbor after that, and in the 1960's some local divers found it again and salvaged some of the metal pins. The pins have recently been donated to our nautical museum." Courtesy Southold Historical Society.
