It is fittingly located at Whitefish Point, Michigan, site of the oldest active lighthouse on Lake Superior near Paradise, Newberry and the Tahquamenon Falls. The collection includes artifacts like the bell from the S.S. Edmund Fitzgerald and a fully restored 1861 Lightkeepers Quarters.
Lake Superior Timeline A great timeline of the greatest of Great Lakes from an equally great web site called Simply Superior: The World's Greatest Lake that takes you from the settlement of the region after retreat of Wisconsin glaciers at 8000 B.C. by the Archaic Indian people, through explorers like Brule and Grenoble, past the 1793 construction of the first Soo Locks up to the last log tug from Grand Marais in the 1970s.
