Barrow shipowners James Fisher & Son bought twelve three-masted schooners from the Carrickfergus shipyard of Paul Rodgers, which later also supplied the Ashburners with the Result. The Mary Armstead was one of the six wooden schooners built by Rodgers for Fishers.
The Mary Armstead sank in collision with the steamer Bernicia
four miles E of Coquet Island, Northumberland, on 29th June 1902. She was
on passage from Flint to Newcastle with a salt cargo. All the crew were
saved.
