The site, the "British Cemetery", later ceded to the British Government, is tended with care by U.S. Coast Guard personnel. Each May, this year the 7th, there is a memorial ceremony with representatives of the several involved services participating

You might want to take a day-trip to Cape Hatteras and look at their lighthouse, vintage 1870s.

OUR LIGHTHOUSE,  just a few hundred yards from The Cove, has been in continuous operation since 1823.
