Plymouth Light Station
"Gurnet Point Lighthouse"

Coordinates: 42.003736°, -70.600574°
Location Address: Gurnet Point, Plymouth, Massachusetts
Sometimes also referred to as "The Gurnet Light," Plymough Light Station in Plymouth, Massachusetts was first established in 1768 to guide mariners traveling through Plymouth Harbor. It was rebuilt in 1803 after the original wooden lighthouse caught fire, and again in 1843, when the wooden frame of the new structure became too deteriorated from weather exposure. The location is said to be haunted by the ghost of a woman named Hannah Thomas, who served as the lighthouse's keeper between 1776 and 1778 after her husband, John, left to fight for the United States during the American Revolutionary War. Another story tells of a young woman named Eunice Burgess, who committed suicide at the age of sixteen by jumping from a large rock after her father, Joseph Burgess, forbid her to marry a local soldier. After her death, the rock became known as "Lover's Rock." Plymouth Light Station was added to the National Register Of Historic Places in March of 1977, and is noted as being the oldest surviving wooden lighthouse in the United States. It is still actively used by sailors in maritime navigation. Sometimes also referred to as "Plymouth Lighthouse," "Gurnet Lighthouse," "Gurnet Light Station," or "The Plymouth Light." Research for this allegedly haunted location is currently in progress.
