As the lighthouse depot foreman, Axel E. Anderson frequently traveled about the district on lighthouse tenders to provide skilled services at many lighthouses and lightships. Here he is visiting Cape Flattery sometime in the late 1920s. Head keeper John M. Cowan is standing next to Axel on the far left. A tender deck officer is on Axel’s right next to the women who are likely members of Cape Flattery’s lighthouse keeper families. (Courtesy Axel E. Anderson Collection)
