Assateague Lighthouse and Killock Shoal Light

My great-grandfather and my grandfather were contractors for the US Coast Guard, once they took over the running of the Assateague Lighthouse and the Killock Shoal Light in 1922.  My Mother had wonderful memories of playing (and partying) at both lighthouses...
