  • U.S. Coast Guard Historian's Office
    U.S. Coast Guard Historian’s Office Preserving Our History For Future Generations Historic Light Station Information WISCONSIN ALGOMA PIERHEAD LIGHT (FRONT & REAR) Location: MOUTH OF THE AHNAPEE RIVER ON LAKE MICHIGAN, WISCONSIN Station Established: 1893 Year Current Tower(s) First Lit: 1932 Operational? YES Automated? YES 1973 Deactivated: N/A Foundation Materials: PIER Construction Materials: STEEL Tower Shape: CYLINDRICAL Markings/Pattern: RED Relationship to Other Structure: INTEGRAL Original Lens: FRESNEL Range: 16 Miles Characteristic: Red, Isophase 6 sec. HISTORICAL INFORMATION: Ahnapee grew rapidly in the mid to late 1870s and became the home to the largest commercial fishing fleet on Lake Michigan. When the government would not approve a lighthouse to mark the entrance to the harbor, locals erected a couple of post lights at the outer end of the two piers at the harbor entrance. Congress finally appropriated money to build some range lights in 1891 to mark the entrance of the harbor at Ahnapee which was renamed Algoma. The light was built in 1892 after new piers were completed but the light was not lit until the beginning of the 1893 shipping season. The piers were unique in that they were split and off-set. There was not a single continuous pier. To get to the lighthouse a bridge had to be built to span the gap between the off-set portions. The range initially consisted of a front post light and a wooden skeletal tower rear range. In 1895 the rear range tower had an upgrade to the lens. A fifth order lens was installed that increased the range from 9 miles to 11 miles.

  • Door County Place Names Project of the Peninsula Genealogical Society to James Halstead (1926 -2000)
    Copyright 2005 by the Peninsula Genealogical Society 477 No. 6th Ave. Sturgeon Bay WI 54235 e-mail address: [email protected] Dedication We wish to dedicate this The Door County Place Names Project of the Peninsula Genealogical Society to James Halstead (1926 -2000). He was one of our dedicated charter members during the creation of this project but more than that, his great knowledge of Door County and his willingness to share that knowledge and perfect the final locations of so very many of the places herein has made this project one that we know will be of great help to researchers in and of Door County Wisconsin. “We hope you are pleased with the final project, Jim!” Introduction We have had many deterrents along the way but have not given up what we feel is a project worth doing and after fifteen years of waiting, the PGS Door County Place Names Project has finally been completed. While working on a Door County Research Guide in the beginning of The Peninsula Genealogical Society’s infancy around 1990, the need for a Door County Place Names Project became apparent. Many old names of places in the County were unknown as to location on the maps of our time. Family history researchers had old letters indicating places long lost to recent knowledge, so the Society began to gather names with their locations with the plan to include them in the Research Guide. That place names part of the Research Guide was becoming a massive undertaking and one to be a project worthy to stand on its own.
