The Olive Thurlow, a three-masted, 149-foot barkentine, was built in 1876. She was bound for New York City from Charleston with a load of yellow pine lumber in 1902. During a storm on December 5, she sank in Cape Lookout Bight near the lighthouse at 4:00 a.m.



Anchor recovery assisted by SIDCO, Beaufort, North Carolina. Anchor on loan from the North Carolina Division of Archives and History.
