JOHN H. MATHIS & COMPANY

Camden NJ

Most recent update: February 4, 2019.

This shipyard, which was at Cooper's Point in Camden, just upstream of the Ben Franklin Bridge, originated in 1855 as Taylor & Mathis, was renamed Morris & Mathis in 1877 and finally became John H. Mathis & Company in 1903.  It was originally a builder and repairer of wooden vessels and during WWI it built work boats, barges and the like.  After the war, it switched to steel construction and became a significant producer of tankers and tank barges.  A sister shipyard. Mathis Yacht Building Company, with which it is often confused, was started by the same group of businessmen in 1909, in an adjacent facility and incorporated in 1913: using a separate hull numbering system, it built sub chasers, naval tugs and airplane frames in WWI , subsequently returning to the recreational market.  In 1939, John H. Mathis and the long serving President of the two firms, William Robinson, both died and in 1940 three key executives left to form a rival firm, RTC Shipbuilding Corporation, on the property immediately to the south: see the table for RTC Shipbuilding here.  Then, in mid-1942, John Trumpy, who had been the driving force of Mathis Yacht, took control of the firm and relocated it to Gloucester City NJ under the name John Trumpy & Sons, Inc.: see the table for Mathis Yacht/Trumpy here.  The original Mathis yard carried on at Cooper's Point but ceased operations in 1962: it was then sold and the site was sold, but continued to operate under the name of Camden Ship Repair Inc. until 1987, when it was acquired by Weeks Marine.  See the site of the shipyard from the air on Google here.  Visit a website featuring the shipyard here: this website confuses the two Mathis yards and ignores RTC but it includes some great pictures and a reproduction of a 16-page brochure.  If anyone can fill any of the gaps in the table below, please e-mail me at timcolton@aol.com
