This very rare mid-1880s drawing of Tillamook Rock Lighthouse was saved in an album of head keeper Rasmus Petersen. The U.S. Lighthouse tender Shubrick, shown to the right of the Rock, helped deliver materials to build the lighthouse. Perhaps Kate Hobson rode out to Tillamook Rock on the Shubrick prior to its decommissioning in 1886. (Courtesy of Elizabeth Petersen Bottemiller) Back to the edition of: Jul/Aug 2023
