Station Site Notes:

1878 repaired; 1895 new station built to replace old one, which was built many years ago and had become inadequate (USLSS Annual Reports). After occupying the site for several years it was found that higher ground would have to be acquired. A site was acquired in 1893 and the old site abandoned in 1894; abandoned in 1948 (USCG Historian's Website).
