MMM Lecture Series: Death and Lighthouses on the Great Lakes

Losing one’s life while tending to a Great Lakes lighthouse — or any navigational beacon anywhere in the world for that matter — sadly wasn’t such an unusual occurrence. Death by murder, drowning, suicide or other unnatural and tragic causes, while rare, was not unheard of. In fact, more than a dozen lighthouse keepers around the Great Lakes met their maker at the hands of others – by fire, poisoning, bludgeoning and other unknown means. Join us as Dianna Stampfler, author of Death and Lighthouses on the Great Lakes, delves into her research which brought these stories to life… despite the deaths of those featured.
