A lot has transpired over those 30 years. What started out in my dining room in San Francisco as a quaint idea of a small Society Thas grown into a national organization, far beyond my initial expectations. Working as head of the Coast Guard’s Aids to Navigation office for northern California, I saw the interest the public had for light stations. At the same time, vandals were busy damaging those stations where we had removed personnel and automated. To remedy this situation, our office started the process of finding a creative use for our light stations. This protected the stations and our aids and at the same time made them available to the public in a variety of ways (tours, B & Bs, lodging for hostels). The practice spread throughout the Coast Guard. This encouraged me to start a Society for those interested in their preservation. This germ of an idea mushroomed to the point that I resigned from the Coast Guard and never looked back. It’s been a dream job and one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. Our four initial pillars of the Society were to (1) create a quality quarterly journal, (2) create a comprehensive library and archive, (3) act as the central “clearing house,” or point of information, for federal, state, and local agencies, regional and local nonprofit organizations as- sociated with light stations (and lightships), and interested individuals, and (4) collect Lighthouse Service artifacts for a future museum. In the back of my mind was the thought that just maybe the Society would grow to the point where funds would allow grants to worthy nonprofit organizations involved with lighthouse and lightship restoration projects. We have, over the years, contributed funds ranging from $5,000 to $20,000 to a few restoration projects, and we did restore the lightship LV 605 (about $700,000 over 20 years). However, the dream, or goal, was to create a fund that would allow a consistent amount on a yearly basis to fund a project through a formal applica- tion process. Ideally the Society fund would be matched or augmented by some corporation as well as member donations, bequests, and funds realized from our educational tours. This year we are announcing that our restoration fund has been created. Our first partner in this venture is the Lands End Company. How appropriate to have a company whose name signifies where our clients are located. Additionally, the goal to have a national museum has, after 12 years, been realized. I will relate more on this project coming to fruition in the next issue.

Then a colleague researching Gulf of Mexico lighthouses (because “nobody’s done the Gulf,”) stopped by to discuss his work at a local maritime library. “He and I got to talking about it, and I thought, ‘This is fascinating stuff!’ and I put together a slide show.” A presentation on lighthouse history soon followed at a middle school and Bay Area yacht clubs, and “after that the phone just rang off the hook.” Lots more talks followed for Wheeler, and “about 1982, I came home one day and said to Sally, ‘Boy, there’s a lot of light- house enthusiasts out there.

  • December 2009 Page 1 President's Remarks Once Again It Is Year-End
    President’s Remarks Once again it is year-end, and once again we are conducting our annual request for member donations to help support MCMA. Last year, we were pleased that the number of member responses increased over 50% from the year previous, and this year we are hoping to see a similar increase in participation. The turbulence of the markets over these past two years, combined with the absence of “safe” investment alternatives that can generate the returns needed to meet our obligations, have really driven home the need to supplement the income we derive from our investments. Your support can and will help, so once again I will say it: if you are able to and wish to make a year-end donation to benefit MCMA, your gift will be greatly appreciated, it is tax-deductible (you will receive a written acknowledgement), and you may instruct Rick Purdy to record it as an anonymous contribution if you so choose. Thank you again. Marty Joyce Recent Happenings Our October Quarterly was held at Spinelli’s in Lynnfield, and we were pleased to have as our guest speaker Mr. Ed McCabe, Maritime Program Director for the Hull Lifesaving Museum. MCMA has supported the Museum’s boat building program on the Boston waterfront for several years, and Mr. McCabe was able to give us an interesting overview of the Museum’s history, details of the program itself, and most importantly the results they are achieving with troubled youths who really want to succeed. A moment of silence was observed in memory of recently deceased Past President Raymond Purdy and member Byron R.

It is probable that I have given emphasis to the erection and upkeep of the Navigational Aids, but it must be realised that this was the main requirement of the Act, to ensure that the Trustees, as a Harbour authority, disposed of their income in a manner which was calculated to benefit the navigation of the Severn Estuary. A great deal of research has been necessary and the advice and assistance given to me by the present Officers, and by others who held similar posts in the past, is greatly appreciated. Without their help the task would have been much more formidable.

    National Park Service Gateway National Recreation Area U.S. Department of the Interior Sandy Hook Unit Sandy Hook Lighthouse The Facts, Mystery and History Surrounding America’s Oldest Operating Lighthouse Talk about “All in the Family”: Keeper Charles W. Patterson was in charge of Sandy Hook Lighthouse for 24 years. He had four brothers who served in the union army during the Civil War. Charles also tried to enlist in the army but was turned down for medical reasons. He then applied for an appointment to become a lighthouse keeper and was appointed keeper of Sandy Hook Lighthouse in 1861. Charles probably helped his sister, Sarah Patterson Johnson, get the job of Assistant Keeper at Sandy Hook Lighthouse, who was appointed in 1867. Sarah later resigned her position to become a public school teacher at the Sandy Hook Proving Ground. Sarah was replaced as assistant keeper by Samuel P. Jewell, who was married to Emma Patterson Megill, who was related to Charles W. Patterson. Another relative working at Sandy Hook related to Charles was Trevonian H. Patterson, who was Sandy Hook Lighthouse & Keepers Quarters, located in the Fort Hancock area of the park. described in an 1879 article as having “lived at Sandy Hook since he was one year old, second lighthouse, after the Statue of in the New York Sun newspaper, dated knows every inch of the beach [at Sandy Liberty, to be lighted by electricity.
