PUSEY & JONES

Wilmington DE

Most recent update: December 12, 2020.
Pusey & Jones started in business in 1848, organized by Joshua Pusey and John Jones and was a major 19th-century shipbuilder, with an impressive volume of business in South America.  A second shipyard was added for the WWI effort, in Gloucester City NJ: see its table here.  It was an early participant in the WWII shipbuilding program, its two ways being increased to three in the second wave of shipbuilding expansion.  After WWII, Pusey & Jones converted the shipyard's facilities for the manufacture of paper-making machinery but the company closed in 1959.  Pusey & Jones' hull numbering system is a bit odd: they had reached 364 when they got their first US Shipping Board contract and they promptly started again at 1001, with both series running in parallel until 1941.  Note also that their 473 hull numbers included 128 vessels sold to shipowners in Central and South America, especially Brazil, and 64 sales of propulsion machinery and/or boilers for ships built by others.  The shipyard was located on the south side of East Front Street, east of South Walnut Street: see it from the air on Google here.  There are a lot of gaps in this table: if anyone can fill any of the, please e-mail your input to timcolton@aol.com
