A Research Note: Keeper Henry Berry and the Cape Fear River Lights (by Debbie Mollycheck)

Today I want to share a research memo on Henry Berry, an African American waterman who was a keeper of the Lower Cape Fear River Lights from 1885 to 1920. The memo's author is Debbie Mollycheck, an attorney with an expertise in-- and a family connection to-- the history of the U.S. Lighthouse Service’s Sixth District.
