Miah Maull Shoal Light

The Miah Maull Shoal Light is a lighthouse on the north side of the ship channel in Delaware Bay, off of Cumberland County, New Jersey on the East Coast of the United States, southwest of the mouth of the Maurice River.

A wooden shed was mounted and a light first exhibited that September, but the superstructure was not completed until 1913, again due to financial requirements.

Originally the light was painted brown, and a fourth-order Fresnel lens imported from France was used.

In June 2011, the General Services Administration made the Miah Maull Shoal Light (along with 11 others) available at no cost to public organizations willing to preserve them.

[3][4] The grandson of Nehemiah Maull's great-great-granddaughter (Ethel Maxwell), Bryan Helm, served for many years as Port Captain of the Cape May, New Jersey and Delaware Bay Authority, not far from where his direct ancestor, Nehemiah Maull, worked as Delaware River pilot.
