Living History: Edward Herman, Marblehead Light Keeper by Geoff Stephenson

Due to rain, this event has moved to Orchestra Hall.

You are invited on Wednesday, July 13 at 7:30 p.m. at the Steele Memorial Bandstand to go on a journey through the life of Captain Edward Herman told by Geoff Stephenson.

Captain Edward Herman was the last in a long line of dedicated ‘light keepers’ for the Marblehead Lighthouse, which is the longest continuing operating lighthouse on the Great Lakes. Herman was first employed as assistant keeper in 1913 and was promoted to keeper where he served until the US Coast Guard took over duties in 1943. Herman resided in Lakeside.
