Under The Lighthouse

This pictorial history of Barnegat Light, N.J. brings to life the memories of residents who experienced the early days and changes in this small fishing village on the northern tip of Long Beach Island.

Photographs and personal stories document the fishing industry and the Scandinavian fishing families, historic buildings, and of course its most famous landmark, Barnegat Lighthouse.

Under The Lighthouse combines images of a past almost forgotten with memories of the residents who will never forget the quaint town that was once called Barnegat City.
