In 1857, a l ighthouse was built on the t ip of Lloyd's Neck to assist sh ips in f inding shelter in Lloyd Harbor f rom the wind and waves that of ten h inder navigat ion on the Long Island Sound. This f i rst l ighthouse, cal led the Lloyd Harbor Light , was of l it t le help to ships enter ing the adjoin ing Hun-t ing ton Harbor. In 1912, a new l ighthouse was built to ser ve Hunt ing ton Harbor.

The new st r uctu re was a unique l ighthouse, in both design and const r uc-t ion. The Beaux Ar ts style makes the l ight look l ike a small castle. The reinforced concrete foundat ion and st r uctu re is unique to the area , as well. The foundat ion for the l ight was built nearby on land, then f loated to the site and sunk. This Lighthouse was manned by members of the United States Lighthouse Ser vice f rom 1912 unt i l 1939, and by the United States Coast Guard since then.

In 1949, the l ight was ful ly automated. The deter iorat ion of the unoccu-pied l ighthouse star ted and would cont inue for almost two decades.

As a result of a 1983 sur vey, the l ight was deemed unsafe for ser vicing personnel and too expensive to repai r. The Coast Guard considered demol-ishing the l ighthouse and erect ing a steel tower

slow down! It's the law! And remember, you are legally responsible for any damage occurring as a result of the

wake of your boat! Let's be safe!

Researching our Lighthouse and It’s Keepersby Steve Eckers, Lighthouse Historian

As the Historian for the Huntington Lighthouse, my research takes me down all sorts of interesting pathways. The fun part is that you never know what strange or interesting facts you will uncover

Our very first keeper of the Lloyd Harbor lighthouse, Abiathar Johnson was found listed in the 1850 census. His occupation is listed as ‘Coaster’ a term used for seamen who plied the local waters. In the 1870 census he’s an ‘Oyster and clam man’. He must have been successful in this pursuit because his name appears in the

‘ Long Islander’ newspaper as part of the board of directors of a ferry company transporting passengers from the Northport dock to Manhattan.

We’ve also found a note in the ‘Long Islander’ of November 28, 1884,that Neale Ward of Staten Island went on duty at the Lloyd Neck Lighthouse. Less than a year later, Oct. 9, 1885 he was transferred to the Norwalk Lighthouse.. He remains a bit of a mystery, as

we know nothing about him except for his name.

Mr. Ward, in turn, was replaced by Robert McGlone. Mr. McGlone was born in Brooklyn in 1856 His obituary states that he was stationed at Easton’s Neck Lighthouse before coming to the Lloyd Neck Lighthouse. . He was appointed as acting light keeper for the Lloyd Harbor Lighthouse on September 26, 1885. On July 9, 1886 he receives his permanent appointment to this position. He serves at the old lighthouse and then continues at the new lighthouse until Jan 31, 1919. He, his wife and their five children lived in the original lighthouse. Although he is mentioned numerous times in the newspapers of the day, he seems well hidden in census records. He is not listed in 1890 or 1900 By the 1910 census, his family has split up, with only two children living with him. Much to my surprise, his name is listed as ‘Archie’ McGlone. in this document. Why Archie? Was that his middle name, and why did he suddenly use it? He died in mid February of 1919, just two weeks after his retirement..

We cannot talk about the history of our lighthouse without giving special mention to Augusta ‘Gussie’ Harrigan. In 1900 when Robert McGlone’s wife died, Gussie came into his life as his housekeeper. While Robert McGlone worked in the lighthouse, Gussie took care of his children and did housekeeping chores. When Robert McGlone died in 1919, Gussie was allowed to live in the old lighthouse as a care-taker. She remained there until 1925 when she moved into ‘town.’ By this time all the McGlone children were grown and had left the ‘lighthouse.’ Did you know …. Lighthouse keepers were required to keep a ‘log’, a list of daily events. Each keeper had his own style. On the left side of this log was a day by day listing of the weather. On the right side, the keeper could write any ‘interesting’ happenings. It is here that we learn about visits by the supply boat and by inspectors, Some keepers recorded their daily maintenance routine which usually included some form of painting of the lighthouse. We are lucky to have a copy of the Keepers Log for the years 1874 to 1891. If you visit us, please ask to see a portion of it. Here are a few samples from 1889: Jan 31: Painted steps to lantern, Feb. 7 Harbor Frozen over Feb. 12 Whitewashed Kitchen (walls) Feb. 25 Painted kitchen floor. March 11 Lighthouse tender ‘John Rogers’ arrives with the inspector. Station inspected 5 PM.

September 1895… “Application has been made for the digging of a deep channel through the western portion of Lloyd’s Harbor and the digging of a canal across the narrow neck of land that separates that body of water from Cold Spring Harbor.”

July 19, 1902…. Robert McGlone, keeper of the Lloyd Harbor Lighthouse caught a shark, more than five feet long in his gill net that was set off the lighthouse? The pay for a light house keeper in 1901 was $600. (that works out to $11.60 a week)

The original lighthouse of 1857 had only its light to warn boats of the dangerous low water and rocks in the area. It was not until the new lighthouse was built that a fog bell was added. The fog horn was not added until the 1940’s.

In 1857, a lighthouse was built on the tip of Lloyd Neck to assist ships in finding shelter in Lloyd Harbor. This first lighthouse, the Lloyd Harbor Light, did little to assist ships entering the adjoining Huntington Harbor.

In 1912, a new lighthouse was constructed to serve both harbors. The Huntington Lighthouse, built in a unique Beaux Arts style, resembled a small castle and was the first poured reinforced concrete lighthouse built on the East Coast.

The Huntington Lighthouse was manned by the U.S. Lighthouse Service from 1912-1939. It was then left vacant, but was supervised by U.S. Coast Guard. It was fully automated in 1949. The Huntington Lighthouse gradually began to deteriorate, and, in 1984 the Coast Guard, deciding it was too expensive to repair, considered demolishing it and replacing it with a steel tower.

In 1985, local resident Janis Harrington founded Save Huntington’s Lighthouse, Inc. to preserve the lighthouse from demolition. The group is the first in the country to successfully take over and restore an offshore lighthouse.

In 2003, The Huntington Lighthouse Preservation Society began offering tours of the Huntington Lighthouse, allowing the public to see the rich history and value of its preservation. It is the only offshore lighthouse on Long Island that is regularly open to the public.

The Lighthouse Preservation Society needs to raise a minimum of $250,000 in order to receive matching funds from an approved grant by New York State. That will allow it $400,000 to complete much needed restoration work.

The Huntington Lighthouse needs 650 tons of rip rap, which are three to five-ton boulders, to protect the concrete at its base and landing, which is being eroded away at high tide. The base is vulnerable to waves and heavy boat traffic in the harbor, as well as easterly storms. The rip rap will help keep the force of the waves from wearing away at the basic structure. The cost of the required rip rap is estimated at $350,000.

The Huntington Lighthouse is available for corporate meetings and private gatherings for a fee. The space accommodates up to 50 guests. For more information, visit www.huntingtonlighthouse.org.

To many the Friday after Thanksgiving or Black Friday is the official kickoff to the holiday season. But in Huntington, the day is dubbed “Blue Friday,” thanks to the Huntington Lighthouse Preserva-tion Society and it’s Huntington Harbor Parade of Lights, a boat parade that draws thousands of landlub-bers to our shores. In 2010, HLPS President Pamela Setchell was inspired and (nudged along) by Dick Gilder-sleeve, owner of the Crabshell restaurant and founder of the Stamford Boat parade. It is a great way to “bring the light to the shore” while raising public awareness about the ongoing preservation efforts at the Lighthouse.Over the last four years the parade

route has grown to larger viewing areas, and now encourages homes and businesses along the har-bor to “Get Lit Too”. In addition to decorating from stem to stern, vessels towed decorated dingies, water cannons, a floating lighthouse replica, a DJ, the Eiffel Tower, a living room sofa, barking dogs, a snow machine and even a marriage proposal. A fun and exciting community event, but also a serious fund-raiser. Efforts range from our local cub scouts organiza-tion and the Lighthouses’ Teens on the Water selling Christmas ornaments, col-lecting donations, to entry fee’s, t-shirts and local business sponsorships. Don’t have a boat? Come on down to the harbor, grab a hot chocolate or your favorite cocktail, cheer the boats on and support the Huntington Lighthouse.

MAKE FITNESS A PART OF YOUR LIFE.

What a year it’s been so far! We have been extremely busy completing the fundraising for the $250,000 matching grant and while we have accomplished that goal, we still have quite a ways to go to meet our Capital Campaign goal of $1,500,000! We were thriilled when our friend, Bernadette Castro, came on board this year and founded The Beacon Society... a challenge/match fundraising initiative that seeks 20 additional people and/or businesses to each issue a $2,000 challenge to friends, neighbors and the community. Here’s how it works! You pledge a $2,000 donation to match your team of 4 others who pledge $500 each! It’s that simple! Each team essentially pledges

$4,000 each in an effort to raise $80,000 within the next 10 months! Thank you

Bernadette!! While fundraising is at the forefront of our efforts due to the increasing deterioration of the foundation and Rip Rap, we are spending a lot of time getting the Engineering and bid documents finished so we can get the work started! It’s not an easy feat by

any means!

Over the winter as we were brainstorming, we came up with the idea of holding some Evening “Sunset Tours” of the Lighthouse. All 3 dates were sold out in a matter of days and everyone that attended has had a

wonderful time!

Much thanks to our wonderful friend Mark Zecher and Chef Robert Flaherty at HONU Kitchen and Cocktails for donating the amazing food for the 1st tour - it was out of this world! Make sure to stop in and have a drink or a wonderful meal any time you are in Huntington Village and thank Mark for all of his support! Also huge thanks to our

great friends at Tutto Pazzo and Dave Tunney at Old Fields Restaurant for donating the food for the 2nd and 3rd Sunset Tours! We are so lucky to have had the support of these three great friends and we encourage you to support

them!

If you haven’t taken a tour of the lighthouse, there is one more tour this season on September 13. If you can’t make it, check our website at www.

huntingtonlighthouse.org next spring and check the 2016 schedule. If you’re looking for a different Christmas present to give a boating friend, make sure to stop by before the tours end this season and pick up a sweatshirt or

some Lighthouse Merchandise.

Thanks to Martin Viette Nursery and many others we managed to hang our beautiful wreath on the lighthouse! Our Christmas wreath has become a tradition that must continue. Martin Viette Nursery greens the 12 foot frame donated by Sound Marine with beautiful fresh pine. The brave guys from the Huntington Harbormasters office supply us with a warm boat to use as our transport, and who

also supply most of the muscle with some of our volunteers and Mike from Seatow to get this 12 foot, 600lb wreath in place. We even get help from the guys from Suffolk Marine Bureau. Without them, we would not be able to give this present to the very late-season

boaters who pass the lighthouse so often.

We were disappointed last fall that we couldn’t hold our annual Boat Parade but this year it’s already in the works! We are so excited to be

able to give this gift to the community!

We don’t know how it happens, but every time we’ve needed some special help at the light, someone, as if by magic appears. A huge thank you to our friend Timmy Willis - he is the master of fixing everything and somehow saves us every time! Thanks Timmy!! Some of our other saviours are the whole crew at Coneys Marine and West Shore Marina… whether it’s to lend us an extra fender for the dock, to help us with

a boat when ours is out of commission, or to take care of our boat in an emergency, they know when to appear with their magic

touch. They are truly amazing.

Every penny donated to the lighthouse, whether it be cash, buying a ticket to one of our events or purchasing a brick for our walkway, goes right back into the lighthouse. If you own a house on the water, you know what salt air can do to it. Now, imagine a house sitting totally surrounded by water with no one living in it to

deal with the everyday problems.

A Very Special Evening Saturday, June 13, 2015

For A Very Special Couple

A few years ago our friends and supporters, Jackie and Dan Martin, attended our 100th anniversary celebration held on the Huntington Lighthouse. Since then they have dreamed of celebrating a special occasion of their own. That day came recently when the Lighthouse hosted the Martins for their 40th wedding anniversary celebration.

The dinner was creatively prepared by another good friend and generous supporter, David Tunney of Old Fields Restaurant (locations in Greenlawn and Port Jefferson).

Jackie is Commodore of the Greater Huntington Council of Yachting and Boating Clubs serving the needs of the recreational boating community, supporting marine safety and environmental protection issues.

In lieu of gifts the Martins requested donations to be made to the Lighthouse. To date the party has raised over $3000.

Congratulations and thank you Jackie and Dan!
