H.J. Whitley, Jeffrey's Hook (Manhattan) lightkeeper
Posted by: David Cook (ID *****6893) Date: July 03, 2008 at 01:23:05

Am searching for any and all info on H.J. Whitley, who was the last lamplighter at the Jeffrey's Hook Lighthouse on the Hudson River in Manhattan before they built the George Washington Bridge above it. Would like to find letters or journal or family oral histories, about what it was like to watch the bridge be built above his tiny little lightstation. Thanks, Dave
