Historical Collections of the Great Lakes site (Bowling Green University -
Ohio) has a couple of great online searchable databases.

One list is for vessels and one is for personnel. The Empire State shows up
in the vessels.

Another good site to check is TheShipsList site might have a few answers for
you also.
