CAN
YOU HELP? The Museum is looking for pictures of our female keeper from 1848 1857. Demaris H. Wheaton or Demairs Weeden assumed the Lighthouse duties after her husband, Robert, died in 1844. She and her son maintained the Light and surrounding property. In fact if you have pictures or information on any of the keepers, we would like to add them to the museum display. One of aims is to add new educational objects and information about the Light every year. You may contact us through our email, website or telephone number, all listed on the front page of this Log. |
