Here are two more photos that I have ready to share. We were able to get on the property the other day, although I won't say how. I promised our contact that I would not give out my source.
I was also given the contact information which got me in contact with the owner. I spoke with him yesterday while he was at work, so I was not able to get a lot of information out of him. He was very nice and willing to help me with some information that I was looking for. He also said that the structure was NOT up for sale and that he was working with the "Lighthouse Society" and the town of Edenton to get it restored at some point. Like I said, I wasn't able to get a ton of info from him, but I was at least given some ray of hope that the structure would be restored.
As for the lens, it is my understanding that it is owned by the city of Edenton. It appears to me that it is all there, although I can't speak yet as to its condition.
I have a number of photos to share if you guys are interested.
