Abbie Burgess is associated with which two Maine lighthouses?

Lime Rock Lighthouse and Cape Elizabeth Matinicus Rock and White Head Light Portland Head Light and Owls Head Portage River Light and Pemaquid Point

Correct Answer:

Matinicus Rock and White Head Light

Explanation:

Abbie Burgess is remembered as a lighthouse keeper on Maine’s coast, celebrated for her bravery and service in keeping the light at Matinicus Rock during a fierce storm. Historical accounts also link her to White Head Light, another Maine beacon, highlighting her contributions along the coast. Because of these documented associations, the two Maine lighthouses connected to her are Matinicus Rock Light and White Head Light. The other lighthouse pairings don’t have the same historical connection to her. In short, this question tests your recall of which two Maine lighthouses are tied to Abbie Burgess’s lighthouse-keeping career.
