Warren Allen, the last lightkeeper at Cedar Island, is featured today in an interview in Newsday. Mr Allen was a guest of the Long Island Chapter last Saturday evening at the Chapter's lantern walk at Cedar Island Lighthouse. August 11 - Newsday - page 2

Nice story, Bob. It's great to keep the oral histories alive, too.

Thanks, Bob, for posting the article. If you look in the background of the photo that accompanies the article, you will see the "dilapidated" oil house from 1902. We are still raising funds to do the restoration of this structure. If you can help, we would appreciate it. See our website for more information: LI Lighthouse Society

Best of luck with the restoration efforts! 
Marblehead, Mass. Lighthouse, you will always have a very special place in our hearts. ....We've made the journey as far south as New Jersey, as far north as Canada. Over 100 lighthouses visited.... and so many more to go.
