What do these lighthouses have in common?

What do these lighthouses have in common? - 01/08/10 03:13 AM

These lighthouses have something in common.

1. Nauset Beach
2. Wisconsin Point
3. Michigan City

Think outside the box; obviously as lighthouses these have beacons, stairs and water close by. Maybe it's the kind of beacons, stairs or water; maybe it isn't.

If you've figured it out, DO NOT POST THE ANSWER, but add another lighthouse that shares what these three have in common. (There are many.)

If your post doesn't have what these three have in common (or the trait(s) I'm thinking of), I'll post another lighthouse that shares what these three have. If you were right, your lighthouse name will be included in the list.

Let's see how many lighthouses we can name that share what these three have in common.

Please don't give away the answer; trial and error.

I suspect you mean the Michigan City Pier Light, not Old Michigan City?

All you need to know to make the connection is some early American history.

Add a 10th name to the list. There may be another 20 lighthouses that share what these 9 have in common.

Add a 10th name to the list. There may be another 20 lighthouses that share what these 9 have in common. [/b]
This was posted when the list had 9 lighthouses on it. Boy did I underestimate the number of lighthouses that share this trait! Now at 63 and my unpublished list still has 20+ 'prospects' to verify.

There could be a bit of an argument against this one as it's a Canadian light, but the USA claims the island as part of Maine.

No problem who would have thought we would hit 111-112 lights. It's getting harder to keep track of them all and add new ones.
Posted By: Webmaster

Re: What do these lighthouses have in common? - 01/28/10 09:33 PM

Nancy - I can't find any etymology for "Odiak" I have a feeling the people who built it just shortened the word Kodiak -- which has a Russian origin meaning "island".

If you have some other documentation on "Odiak", please email it to me.

When you are on this page, you can check to see if a lighthouse has been used by typing CTRL-F and then typing in the proposed name you want to add (depending on the browser you are using you may also need to hit ENTER").

If it doesn't find the word, then you are safe to add it.

I'm not done yet, but it takes more and more time to research the possible lights to verify they qualify.

I have 21 more confirmed qualified lighthouse names and a list of 38 possibles that need to be researched. I'll post them sparingly.

We are reaching back to some "gone but not forgotten" lights and finding some additional lights that shared names with some of those already posted (as #115 Manhattan Rear Range posted yesterday)

I think we can get to 150 lighthouses!

For friends who've already posted a correct lighthouse: If you want to work on my list of 38 still to research, email me and I'll send you 8 from the list. webmaster@lighthousekeepers.com

Keep 'em coming!

"Why-Knee-Me" is #8 on the list. Yes I'm done.

Got other things to move on to do.

There may be more, but I've poured over the Lighthouse Friends list and spent too many hours researching possible names that fit our "One of these things IS just like the other" relationship puzzle.

Filling in another Michigan City light to the list -- this one the Breakwater light which isn't much of a light, but the CG says it is a light.

And I'll add another that we all know but have overlooked: NOBSKA!

Now I'm down to 11 more to post.

I've gone "all in" and put in the few remaining lights that I had left on my list. The total is 157 lights and lightships.

Anyone is welcome to post additional lights that share what all these have in common.

List (C) 2010, LighthouseKeepers.com

Thanks to Carol, Eric, Linda, Nancy, Greg, Roland and Bob for participating. If any of you would like an updated spreadsheet, just email me webmaster@lighthousekeepers.com

Great work, everyone! What a comprehensive list. Thanks, John for your due diligence to make sure we were all on target.

Of all the contiguous, continental US states with lighthouses on the Great Lakes, Atlantic, Pacific or Gulf Coasts, it appears there may only be one state not represented by at least one lighthouse on this list.

Can you name the state?

Re: What do these lighthouses have in common? - 02/14/10 06:38 PM

New Hampshire - very short coast

Oops. Guess there are at least 2 states.

Although the Lightship Chesapeake is docked there today at least, so there's a partial connection.

Right you are, too, Greg. Good point.
Posted By: Webmaster

Re: What do these lighthouses have in common? - 02/22/10 10:53 PM

Further research on the existing names on the list might reveal some other 'same-name' lighthouses.

For example:
Rappahannock Shoal Channel South Range Rear VA

Was their a 'Front Range' there?
Posted By: wvlights0

Re: What do these lighthouses have in common? - 02/22/10 11:11 PM

I can't find anything on a front range. It is still an active light, Rosalie, do you have charts for this part of Chesapeake Bay? That would tell us what serves as the front range.
Update:
I found the chart http://www.charts.noaa.gov/OnLineViewer/12225.shtml
there is a front range light, but...is it a lighthouse? It is LLNR 7290.

It just didn't seem right that there were none in Maryland. I got a great book this weekend "Lost Lighthouses of the Chesapeake Bay". I'll have to see if there are any more not on our list, but I concentrated on Maryland to begin with. We were including lost lighthouses weren't we?

Re: What do these lighthouses have in common? - 03/07/10 01:04 AM

Yes I do have charts of the Chesapeake. I didn't know what this was a list of - is it lights that are gone? If so Cedar Point is gone. There's nothing left of it except the cupola which is in the Pax River museum.

Lost Lights? Absolutely! Many lost lighthouses on that list already, Laura. towel

Re: What do these lighthouses have in common? - 12/21/10 02:53 AM

Kathleen - this is a list of lighthouses with names derived from Native American language words or tribe names.

Without researching it, I'd guess that "Hooper" doesn't fall into this category.
