in Coastal Lighthouses Built in 1836 it is the oldest lighthouse left on the Potomac River. Built in 1836, the Piney Point Lighthouse and keeper’s quarters are located 14 miles up the Potomac River from the Chesapeake Bay. This beacon stands preserved today as a witness to a bygone era of high society entertaining American Presidents such as James Monroe, Franklin Pierce, Theodore Roosevelt and other notables including Daniel Webster, Daniel C. Calhoun, and later, the inimitable Kate Smith. posted by:  chstress53 location: Maryland date approved: 10/06/2005 last visited: 01/21/2019 |
