General:
Margaret Mannings older brother lost on "Cyclop" a collier, lost in Bermuda Triangle. [Which brother unkown. She had four older brothers.]
USS Cyclops
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
Two ship of the United States Navy have borne the name USS Cyclops, for the Cyclopes of Greek mythology , a race of giants with only one eye.
The first USS Cyclops was an ironclad steamer. It was originally USS Kickapoo , was renamed Cyclops from 15 June to 10 August , and then was renamed Kewaydin.
The second USS Cyclops was a collier , launched 7 May , 1910 , by William Cramp and Sons, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania , and placed in service 7 November 1910 , with G. W. Worley, Master, Navy Auxiliary Service , in charge. Operating with the Naval Auxiliary Service, Atlantic Fleet, the collier voyaged in the Baltic during May to July 1911to supply Second Division ships. Returning to Norfolk, Virginia , she operated on the east coast from Newport, Rhode Island, to the Caribbean servicing the fleet. During the troubled conditions in Mexico in 1914 and 1915 , she coaled ships on patrol there and received the thanks of the State Department for cooperation in bringing refugees from Tampico to New Orleans, Louisiana
With American entry into World War I, Cyclops was commissioned 1 May, l917, Lieutenant Commander G. W. Worley in command. She joined a convoy for St. Nazaire, France in June 1917, returning to the east coast in July. Except for a voyage to Halifax, Nova Scotia, she served along the east coast until 9 January 1918, when she was assigned to Naval Overseas Transportation Service. She then sailed to Brazilian waters to fuel British ships in the south Atlantic, receiving the thanks of the State Department and Commander-in-Chief, Pacific. She put to sea from Rio de Janeiro 16 February 1918, and after touching at Barbados on 3 March and 4 March, was never heard from again. Her loss with all 306 crew and passengers, without a trace, is one of the sea's unsolved mysteries, and is often "credited" to the Bermuda Triangle.

--------------------------------
One of the most celebrated stories of Devil's Triangle victims, is that of USSCyclops which disappeared in March of 1918.
In his television program, Richard Winer indicated the captain of the Cyclops was rather eccentric. He was reputedly fond of pacing the quarterdeck wearing a hat, a cane and his underwear. Prior to the Cyclops disappearance there was a minor mutiny by some members of the crew which was promptly squelched by the captain and the perpetrators were sent below in irons. None of this really offers a clue to what happened to the collier Cyclops, but it suggests something other than a mysterious force might have led to her doom.
According to Marshall Smith writing in Cosmopolitan, September 1973, "theories ranged from mutiny at sea to a boiler explosion which carried away the radio shack and prevented any distress call." One magazine, Literary Digest, speculated that a giant octopus rose from the sea, entwined the ship with its tentacles and dragged it to the bottom. Another theory was that the shipped suddenly turned turtle in a freak storm, trapping all hands inside.
Fifty years later, novelist Paul Gallico used the idea as the peg for a novel called The Poseidon Adventure which was made into a successful movie in 1972.
Cyclops was assigned to the Naval Overseas Transportation Service, which became the Naval Transportation, which merged with the Army Transport Service to become the Military Sea Transportation Service and then Military Sealift Command. When she sailed she was loaded with 10,800 tons of manganese ore bound for Baltimore from Barbados in the West Indies.
Information obtained from Germany following World War I disproved the notion that enemy U-boats or mines sank the Cyclops. None were in the area.
