Noble Midwest Archeological Center Technical Report No.8 United States Department of the Interior National Park Service Midwest Archeological Center Lincoln, Nebraska 1993 Ie ------ -- -- - -- --_.- - ----------------------------- --- ----- ABSTRACT During June and July of 1988, archeologists from the Midwest Archeological Center performed limited testing at four historic lighthouse complexes within Apostle Islands National Lakeshore. The lighthouses, which still protect shipping at the western end of Lake Superior, were scheduled for exterior restoration work. Specifically, immediate plans called for the installation of drainage systems about certain structures on Sand Island, Michigan Island, Outer Island, and Devils Island to mitigate continuing ground water damage to their foundations. Archeological investigations sought to assess the potential impacts to cultural resources in those areas of the light stations that would be disturbed by proposed developments. Shovel probes and controlled test excavations were used to examine the proposed drain alignments, as well as construction staging areas. No significant cultural resources were discovered during the five-week project that would warrant modification of the drainage systems or further archeological excavation prior to construction of these improvements. -

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. -

James Feldman | The View from Sand Island: Reconsidering the Peripheral Ec...rterly, 35.3 | The History Cooperative (http://www.historycooperative.org) http://www.historycooperative.org/journals/whq/35.3/feldman.html From The Western Historical Quarterly Vol. 35, Issue 3. Viewed May 8, 2006 15:17 EDT Presented online in association with the History Cooperative. http://www.historycooperative.org The View from Sand Island: Reconsidering the Peripheral Economy, 1880–1940 JAMES FELDMAN The bird's-eye view that western historians typically assume to analyze economic development directs attention away from the point of production and obscures the local conditions that shaped economic life in the rural West. On Sand Island, Wisconsin, seasonal limitations, local transportation patterns, and the intersections of seemingly distinct industries dictated the daily activities of an economic frontier. ON 4 OCTOBER 1922, THE STEAMER C. W. Turner made its tri-weekly stop at the East 1 Bay of Sand Island, a small island off northern Wisconsin's Lake Superior shore and home to a small community of fishermen. The dilapidated steamer—it had been in constant use since 1900 and it reeked of fish—might seem an unlikely symbol of the multifaceted economy of northern Wisconsin and other parts of the rural West. But the Turner could be just that. The collection of the daily catch in service of the commercial fishing industry provided the primary reason for the Turner's visit to Sand Island. The Booth Fisheries Company, the largest fishpacking firm on the Great Lakes, dispatched the steamer from its base in Bayfield, Wisconsin, to pick up the whitefish and lake trout caught by the island fishermen, and to drop off the ice needed to keep the next catch fresh until its return. -

This evaluated inventory identifies and documents each landscape’s location, size, physical development, condition, landscape characteristics as character-defining features, as well as other valuable information useful to park management. Cultural landscapes become approved inventory records when all required data fields are entered, the park superintendent concurs with the information, and the landscape is determined eligible for the National Register of Historic Places through a consultation process or is otherwise managed as a cultural resource through a public planning process. The CLI, like the List of Classified Structures (LCS), assists the National Park Service (NPS) in its efforts to fulfill the identification and management requirements associated with Section 110(a) of the National Historic Preservation Act, National Park Service Management Policies (2001), and Director’s Order #28: Cultural Resource Management.
