In 1827 three acres of land were deeded from Captain John Tibbetts of Troy, New York to the Federal government for the purpose of building a lighthouse. The lighthouse at Tibbetts Point would prove to be invaluable guiding shipping to and from the Great Lakes to the St. Lawrence Seaway and the Atlantic Ocean.
