Boston Light's Tumultuous History From Founding to Modern
Boston Light began as America’s first lighthouse and was built after Boston officials pressed for harbor aid. Keeper George Worthylake and family died in its early years, and it burned and rebuilt multiple times before British destruction in the Revolution. Governor Hancock later led a funded rebuild, and the 1790 transfer to federal care solidified its status as a coast landmark with modern power and fog signals.
