Substitute Keepers:
Keepers that came to man the light station while the actual Keeper went on vacation. Usually signified in the Keepers Log by a sudden change of handwriting.

In 1939 the US Coast Guard took over the Lighthouse Service.  At that point the current staff had the opportunity to become part of the USCG or remain on in some cases as civilians working for the military.  The following names of Keepers that manned the station until its automation.

• 1945   George L Jilke (Cox)

• John Merry (MO)

• Stewart H. Carter (BM 1/C)

• Mr. Anderson (?)

• David Joseph (CM/ 3C)

These men were all temporary substitute keepers serving from one week to one month from January 1945 to April 1945

Between April 1945 – early 1948 there are too many Keepers to list. 

1948 Sven Eshenbaum, Peter Rossano, Richard Simpson, Frank Souza, Joseph Thomas and Thomas Torrence - all served 1 or 2 weeks from May 20, 1948 to November 22, 1948
