The second tower was built to replace the still standing lighthouse which hasn't had a keeper for years like most lighthouses in Ontario. The Nancy Island lighthouse shown is actually a replica that was built 1967 and is part of museum. Nice pictures, but please do your research!

Nice pictures, but please do your research!

Unfortunately this is another demonstration of the poor research that was done while creating this compilation of abandoned lighthouses. Nevertheless, I found this page very inspirational!

It's the "strait" of Ontranto, not the "straight," and yeah, it's "Wales," not "whales." Plus, it would be nice to know WHERE in Canada the Canadian ones are -- it's a big country with three coasts (although I don't know if the Arctic coast has lighthouses). It would also be really good to know whether any of these abandoned lighthouses are for sale to private citizens to be restored and lived in. Enquiring minds want to know, so make with the research next time! Although I love this site, I have to agree that this article has particularly poor research.
