Thomas Point Shoal Lighthouse is shown here in 1885; a mere 10 years after it was built. The structure looks relatively the same then and it does today. However, without electricity, radio, television, and a power boat, the early lighthouse keepers had a much harder life than did the modern era Coast Guard keepers. (Lighthouse Digest archives.)
