1931 Great Lakes Light List

Every year, the Federal agency responsible for the nation's aids to navigation printed a complete listing of all aids to navigation in the country. These listing are generally referred to as Light Lists. They can be very useful for identifying lighthouses and their various changes over time. Rather than include the entire scanned volume as a single large download, we have made this Light List available in two-page sections. Click on the section of the list you wish to view below.
