Other 19th Century Shipbuilders - Atlantic Coast

This table lists self-propelled, oceangoing ships built in the late 19th century and/or the years before World War One, by the smaller shipbuilders on the Atlantic Coast.  For most of these shipyards I have little or no information, in some cases not even a location.  If anyone can tell me anything helpful about any of these shipyards - who owned them, where exactly they were located, what happened to them - or can otherwise add to this table, please e-mail timcolton@aol.com.
