Name/Title

George H Dunn, Lahaina Lighthouse Keeper, Lahaina

Description

Captain David Taylor, who served as harbormaster at Lahaina, was given the added responsibility of caring for the light in 1893, after the previous keeper refused to take an oath to support the provincial government. A decade later, George H. Dunn, an agent for the Inter-Island Steam Navigation Company and Wilder’s Steamship Company, replaced Captain Taylor and served as keeper until 1907, when Samuel Ako was placed in charge of the light.
