(Bonus) The Fascinating Tale of the Annie C. Maguire
A lighthouse keeper's family heroically aids survivors of a Christmas Eve shipwreck.
The aging barque Annie C. Maguire wrecked just 100 feet from the Portland Head Light, in suspicious circumstances, on Christmas Eve, 1886. Lighthouse Keeper Joshua Strout and his family heroically rescued all aboard, and then were promptly eaten out of house and home. The Strout family served at the Portland Head Light for over 100 years.
