Month: August 2025

I decided this would be a good time to pull together research I have done on the past on “Gatekeepers of History,” particularly with regards to institutions in our world that have played a huge role in controlling the flow of information, not only by shaping the narrative, but also in hiding, suppressing or destroying evidence for who and what was here previously, and what happened to everything.

I am bringing this information about the “Gatekeepers of History” forward for your consideration now in light of the very recent developments in Washington and the singling out of the Smithsonian Institution for review, and it will be interesting to see where this goes.

So I am going to start this post with the Smithsonian Institution.

The Smithsonian Institution was established in August of 1846, and was created by the United States government for the stated purpose of the “increase and diffusion of knowledge.”

Nicknamed the “Nation’s Attic,” it has an estimated 154-million items in its holdings, across numerous facilities, and is the largest such complex in the world.

The Smithsonian Castle was the first building of the Smithsonian Institution, and said to have been built on the National Mall in Washington, DC, between 1849 and 1855.

We are told the “brownstone” for Smithsonian castle, also known as “Seneca Red Sandstone,” and numerous buildings and canal locks in the area, came from a big stone quarry at the C&O Canal and Seneca Creek that started operating somewhere around 1781.

This was notated as an 1898 photograph of the quarry.

The Seneca Creek Stone-Cutting Mill at this location was said to have been built in 1868, and used to cut stone for Baltimore and Washington until 1901.

Nowadays, the location designated as the former quarry is overgrown with sycamore trees, poplars, and dense brush, and is impenetrable most of the year.

The Seneca Creek Aqueduct is near the location of the quarry and mill, and was said to have been built between 1829 and 1832 out of the Seneca Red Sandstone of the quarry–almost 40-years before the Stone Cutting Mill was said to have opened.

In West Virginia, US-219 is said to follow what was known as the “Seneca Trail,” a network of trails of “unknown age” used by indigenous Americans for commerce, trading and communication.

The “Seneca Trail” ran through the Appalachian Valley from what was to become Upper New York State, and went well into Alabama, though they are described to us in our historical narrative strictly as “footpaths.”

What we are told is that by the time the land was settled by Europeans starting in the 18th-century, it was largely abandoned by its previous inhabitants.

It is interesting to note that researchers have long suspected the Smithsonian to have played a role in the cover-up of giants.

Back in the day, giant skeletons were displayed in public places and mentioned in newspaper articles, but all that went away.

On the one-hand, there are reports that the Smithsonian admitted to the destruction of thousands of giant human skeletons in the early 1900s as the result of a U. S. Supreme Court ruling, and on the other hand, there are fact-checkers vigorously debunking this as a satirical claim and false.

The finding of giant human remains was well-documented in the 19th-century, and yet these days, the very existence of giants seems to be vigorously denied, and/or fact-checked as a hoax, when their remains turn-up somewhere.

This topic of where giant remains were found also ties into the location of  infrastructure, like s-shaped river bends, rail and canal among other things, and there are also intriguing correlations between the locations of where some of these these giant remains were found and Civil War battles and events.

Yes, they were reported to be found at mounds, but they were also randomly uncovered when people were digging.

There are also conflicting beliefs expressed in existing documentation about whether or not these giants were advanced or primitive brutes.

Either way, the existence of giants are pushed way back in time, with what happened to them being a mystery, though frequently with the conclusion that they were warring with each other and killed each other off.

This newspaper clip about an almost 7-foot-, or 2-meter-, long skeleton, of massive proportions, was found 12-feet, or almost 4-meters, above a prehistoric mound that was ordered to be removed, in a town just four-miles, or 6-kilometers, west of Huntington.

The article states at the end that “the Smithsonian Institution will be notified of the discovery.”

Here is another publication’s clipping on the subject of giants.

Talking about the Great Lakes Region, it says “Long Before the Indians…it is believed to have been inhabited by a superior people – of whom not even a tradition remans – whose only monuments are earthworks and tumuli, scattered here and there, in some places containing bones from men of gigantic size.”

It goes on to say further “Mounds and relics from these “Mound Builders” were formerly abundant throughout the Ohio and Mississippi Valleys, especially in this section. If a separate race from the Indians, when and by what agency they were destroyed will probably remain a mystery as deep as that of the lost island “Atlantis.”

So this acknowledges the presence of giants here who were Mound Builders, but shrouds what happened to them in mystery, just like the lost Atlantis, saying we don’t know who they were, or really anything about them, except that they were a superior people.

Criel Mound in South Charleston West Virginia, a short distance as the crow flies of of 41-miles, or 66-kilometers, from Huntington.

It was said to have been levelled in 1840 to create a judge’s stand for horse-races that were run around the base of the mound at the time.

We are told it was excavated between 1883 and 1884, and that thirteen-skeletons were found all together, with one of them being documented as having had a height of almost 7-feet, or 2-meters.

The Criel Mound is one of the few surviving mounds of the Kanawha Valley Mounds.

The area extended along the upper terraces of the Kanawha River floodplain for 8-miles, or 13-kilometers, and consisted of 50 mounds and 8 – 10 circular earthworks, as reported by Cyrus Thomas, a prominent ethnologist of the late 19th-century employed by the Smithsonian Institution’s “Bureau of Ethnology,” best known for his work on American mounds.

Along with the tallest skeleton by far being 18-feet, or 5.5 meters, -tall at West Hickory in Pennsylvania which I will talk about shortly, of the ten featured on this graphic, three are generally-located in the vicinity of Huntington, West, Virginia.

Number 10 on the list was found at the Great Serpent Mound, at 7-feet, or a little over 2-meters, -tall; #9 at Cresap Mound in West Virginia at 7-feet, 2-inches, still a little over 2 -meters, – tall; and #6 at Miamisburg, Ohio at a little over 8-feet, or 2.5-meters, -tall.

The Great Serpent Mound is only a distance of 63-miles, or 102-kilometers, northwest of Huntington.

Numerous historical giants’ skeletons have been found in the area around Serpent Mound.

Number 6 of the “Top Ten Giant Discoveries in North America” was found in Miamisburg, Ohio, near the Miamisburg Mound, which is 70-miles, or 113-kilometers, from the Great Serpent Mound in Peebles, Ohio.

The Miamisburg Mound is located next to the S-shaped Great Miami River.

The Miamisburg Mound is the largest conical-shaped earthwork of its kind in the United States.

Silbury Hill, located near the Avebury megalithic complex in Wiltshire in England, is similar in appearance to the Miamisburg Mound, and is the largest mound of its kind in Europe

Number 9 on the Top 10 list in North America was documented to have been found in 1959 by Dr. Donald Dragoo, the Curator for the Section of Man at the Carnegie Museum of Pittsburgh, at Cresap Mound in West Virginia at 7-feet, 2-inches, still a little over 2 -meters, – tall.

Yet Academia still persists in the debunking of the presence of giant humans here!

The Grave Creek Mound is considered to be one of the largest conical mounds in the United States, and first excavated by amateurs in 1838, at which time giant skeletons reported to be as long as 8-feet, or almost 2 and 1/2-meters, -tall were uncovered, but not listed on the top ten giant discovered in North America for some reason.

The Grave Creek Mound just so happens to be smack dab across the street from the West Virginia Penitentiary!

If you are interested in going for a visit, the West Virginia Penitentiary was said to have been built in 1866, one year after the end of the American Civil War, and was decommissioned in 1995.

The location offers prison tours from April to November every year, and paranormal investigations take place here because of its haunted reputation.

The Grave Creek Stone is called West Virginia’s most controversial archeological relic.

It was discovered when the Grave Creek Mound was first excavated in 1838.

Initially it was believed to be some kind of “Indian Hieroglyphs,” but different scholars of the day concluded the characters on the stone resembled a variety of ancient alphabets, including but not limited to that of Celtic, Tunisian, Egyptian and Etruscan.

Other scholars dismissed the Grave Creek Stone as a fraud.

The Smithsonian is said to have four casts of the stone, but the location of the original is said to be unknown.

The characters of the Grave Creek Stone bring to mind those on the Heavener Runestone in east-central Oklahoma, which have been mostly attributed to being the Norse Runes of Vikings that found their way there long ago.

Same thing for the appearance of Old South Arabian, like the inscription found in southern Yemen on the left, compared with Norse Runes on the right.

What if these runes were actually the runes of Vril, or “Life Force,” pictured on the bottom middle, that was connected to the Ancient Humans and their mastery of how to harness natural energy to create amazing things.

Giant skeletons have also been uncovered in the desert sands of southern Arabia in the process of looking for gas and oil, but like everywhere else these days, discoveries like this have been labelled as hoaxes.

Back in West Virginia, in 1857, the almost 11-foot skeleton of a giant was found in the vineyard of the sheriff in East Wheeling, and was on-display there for an unknown period of time.

Looks like the giant skeleton was parked outside of a store in Wheeling displaying an array of skulls and bones!

Now I am going to turn my attention to West Hickory in Pennsylvania, where the tallest recorded skeleton in North America was found, at 18-feet, 5.5-meters.

This article was from the “Oil City Times” from the “Marysville Tribune” of Marysville, Ohio, dated January 26th of 1870.

At the top of the article, it referenced the “Cardiff Giant Outdone” and the alleged discovery of the skeleton of a giant in the oil regions.

So, I looked up the “Cardiff Giant” to find out more about it.

What has come down to us in our historical narrative about the “Cardiff Giant” was that it was one of the most famous archaeological “hoaxes” of all time.

In October of 1869 in Cardiff, New York, workers digging a well behind the barn of William “Stub” Newell, uncovered a 10-foot, or almost 3-meter, -tall, 3,000-pound, or 1,371-kilogram, petrified giant man.

Subsequently, Newell covered the giant with a tent and turned it into a local attraction, drawing a lot of attention from visitors.

This is the story we have been told to explain the Cardiff Giant’s existence.

The hoax was said to have been perpetrated by a New York tobacconist named George Hull, who wanted to fool people as to how easy it would be to create a giant.

The narrative says that in 1868, only three-years after the end of the American Civil War, Hull hired men to quarry a ginormous block of gypsum from Fort Dodge, Iowa, and had it shipped to Chicago to have it sculpted into a giant.

Then Hull had it shipped to the farm of his cousin William Newell in New York in November of 1868, where it was buried in a hole. Then, after almost a year had passed, Newell hired the men to dig the “well” where they found the giant.

The “Cardiff Giant” in short-time was sold to a syndicate, who moved it to Syracuse, New York, for exhibition.

The “Cardiff Giant” garnered a lot of attention, including that of “experts” as well as of P. T. Barnum, who was said to have hired a man covertly to model the giant’s shape in wax in order to make a plaster replica of it after his offer to buy the giant was refused.

P. T. Barnum was a showman, businessman, and politician, who got his start in the “Dime Museum” business in 1841.

Dime museums were most popular in the United States at the end of the 19th-century and beginning of the 20th-century as institutions which provided cheap entertainment for working-class people, and reached their peak in popularity in the time-period between 1890 and 1920, declining in popularity with the rise of Vaudeville and the film industry.

Barnum’s American Museum in Manhattan’s Financial District was known for its strange attractions and performances.

The attractions were a combination of zoo, museum, lecture hall, wax museum, theater, and freak show.

Barnum’s American Museum became a central location in the development of American popular culture, and was filled with things like dioramas; scientific instruments; modern appliances; a flea circus; the “feejee” mermaid; Siamese twins, and other human curiosities.

At any rate, P. T. Barnum was said to have exhibited his plaster giant as the real giant and the Cardiff giant as the fake.

Then, by December of 1869, the “Cardiff Giant” was said to have been exposed as a fraud, and Hull confessed everything to the press, and that by February of 1870, both the Cardiff Giant and Barnum’s giant had been revealed as fakes in court.

The Cardiff Giant, and what we are told was the unauthorized copy of it made by P. T. Barnum, are on display at “Marvin’s Marvelous Mechanical Museum” in Farmington Hills, Michigan.

But what if both the Cardiff giant and Barnum’s giant were actually real giants, and not hoaxes as we are told, after all?

The tobacconist George Hull as a hoaxer story gets even stranger!

The “Solid Muldoon” was another petrified giant human body that was unearthed in Beulah, Colorado, and later called a hoax perpetrated by the same guy, George Hull. 

The “Solid Muldoon,” at over 7-feet, or 2-meters, -long was said to have been discovered near Mace’s Hole in Beulah, Colorado, in 1877, 3-months after Hull “created” it, this time from “mortar, rock dust, clay, plaster, ground bones, blood and meat” and kiln-fired before it was buried in the location it was “discovered” three-months later.

The “Solid Muldoon” went on display in Colorado and New York before revealed as a hoax to the New York Times.

So, now let’s see what the 1870 newspaper article has to say with regards to the giant that was found at West Hickory.

Two men excavating near West Hickory in preparation for erecting a derrick first exhumed an enormous rusty helmet of iron…

…and then they unearthed a 9-foot, or almost 3-meter, – long sword.

So they made the hole bigger, and soon came upon the bones of two enormous feet.

After a few hours, they unearthed the well-preserved skeleton of an enormous human.

The bones of the skeleton were described as “remarkably white;” the double- teeth all in place, of extraordinary-size; and that when the giant was alive, he must have stood 18-feet, or 5.5-meters, in stockings.

And lastly, the bones were found about 12-feet, or 3.5-meters, below the surface of a mound, and the mound was not more than 3-feet, or less than a meter, above the level of the ground around it, and the article ended with “Here is another nut for antiquarians to crack.”

Firstly, to put that into perspective, this garage has 12-foot walls, so the giant’s bones were found that far below the surface of a mound, which was another 3-feet higher than the ground.

Secondly, antiquarians are those who study history with a particular attention to artifacts, archaeological and historic sites, and historic archives and manuscripts.

The American Antiquarian Society was established in 1815, said to be a national research library of pre-20th-century American history and culture, and the oldest historical society with a national focus, having been founded in 1812.

Its stated mission is to collect, preserve, and make available for study all printed records of what is known as the United States of America.

Seems like the American Antiquarian Society was established to be a gate-keeper for the new official history, like the aforementioned “Smithsonian Institution” was to become.

Somehow I don’t think the self-described Antiquarians had any intention of “cracking the nut.”

The seal of the American Antiquarian Society translates from the Latin of Ovid’s Metamorphoses, Book 15, Line 872: “Now I have completed my work, which neither sword nor devouring Time will be able to destroy” complete with an illustration of what we have come to consider Greco-Roman architecture and a broken Corinthian pillar at the feet of what appears to be an angel. 

The view of the Philadelphia Museum of Art from the Schuylkill River in Philadelphia is pictured on the right.

West Hickory just happens to be located geographically only 14-miles, or 23-kilometers southeast of Titusville.

Titusville is noteworthy because it was where the petroleum industry in the United States began in earnest in 1859 when Edwin Drake found oil on a piece of leased-land near Titusville, in what is now called Oil Creek State Park.

For this reason, Titusville is called the Birthplace of the Oil Industry, and for a number of years this part of Pennsylvania was the leading oil-producing region in the world.

Today,the Oil Creek State Park Trail runs on the bed of the first railroad line to reach Titusville, the Oil Creek Railroad.

Then, there is Giant City State Park in Makanda, Illinois.

Giant City State Park in the Shawnee National Forest is located just south of Carbondale in Southern Illinois.

Carbondale was the crossing point of the “Paths of Totality” for both the 2017 & 2024 solar eclipses, locations where the moon’s shadow completely covers the sun, and this part of southern Illinois was and is the “point of greatest eclipse duration,” where the shadow of the moon from the eclipse of the sun lasts the longest.

So it looks like whoever built this ancient advanced civilization new exactly where they were in time and place, both astronomically and terrestrially.

During the American Civil War, the Confederate Army was said to have constructed a fort in Columbus, Kentucky,at the confluence of the Mississippi and Ohio Rivers, very close to Cairo, Illinois, and Carbondale, in a part of Illinois nicknamed “Little Egypt.”

Today, Cairo in Illinois is empty and deserted, and considered a ghost town.

In its heyday, Cairo, located right at the confluence of these two great rivers, was an important city along the steamboat routes and railway lines. 

Back in 1861, the Confederacy lost the State of Kentucky, which had wanted to remain neutral until a Confederate Army occupied Columbus, Kentucky, which was supported by President Davis, and Kentucky requested aid from the Union.

A primary attraction at the Columbus-Belmont State Park, the historical location of that fort, are the remains of a mile-long giant chain, and its anchor estimated to weigh between 4- to- 6-tons.

The giant chain was said to have been constructed under the direction of Confederate General Leonidas Polk, who in 1861 had it stretched across the Mississippi River between the fortification in Columbus, and Camp Johnson in Belmont, Missouri.

But apparently this defensive strategy didn’t work too well, as Union troops under then Brigadier-General Ulysses S. Grant occupied the area and took down most of the chain.

So, exactly how do you go about hiding giants and their advanced civilization?

Based on the information I have provided throughout this post and past research, I think the American Civil War was another one of the many ways this was done, and was not what we are told it was about.

In this example of finding correlations between giants and civil war battles, this article on the bones of giant indians near Antietam Creek is on the Library of Congress website.

Titled “Bones Of Giant Indians,” about giant skeletons found in Antietam, Maryland, it was originally published on February 9th of 1898 in the “Juniata Sentinal and Republican” newspaper in Mifflintown in Juniata County, Pennsylvania.

This article implies that the skeletons were found of seven-feet in height, were those of Indians that roamed over the State of Maryland in their wildness, armed with instruments that either nature gave them, or in their limited skill to make.

It further goes on to say that the locality from where these skeletons came near Antietam Creek in Frederick County was supposed to have been the battleground of two tribes of Indians, the Catawabas and the Delawares.

According to this claim, some Catawbas overtook a band of Delawares living at the mouth of the Antietam and annihilated them, but the President of the Maryland Academy of Sciences and Provost of the Peabody Institute, after a careful review of the locality, found that there was no evidence to support this claim of a battle other than some spears and arrowheads found there.

This location of Antietam Creek and the alleged battleground between the two Indian tribes would not have been far in distance from the location of the Battle of Antietam the deadliest one-day battle in American Military History, on September 17th of 1862, with 22,727 dead, wounded, or missing.

We are told that after a long bloody day of fighting and death, the Union Army succeeded in turning back the Confederate invasion of Maryland, and was considered a major turning point in the war in the Union’s favor.

So exactly how was the President of the Maryland Academy of Sciences supposed to find evidence of an historical battle between giant Indians in a place with an even more recent battle, and of this magnitude?

The Peabody Institute mentioned in this article immediately caught my attention.

In 1857, banker, and also called the “Father of Modern Philanthropy,” George Peabody established the Peabody Institute in Baltimore with a bequest of at least $800,000, and it is the oldest conservatory in the United States.

By the time it was completed and opened in 1866, one year after the official end of the American Civil War, it was dedicated by George Peabody himself, and included a music academy, library and art gallery.

That entrance at the east wing of the George Peabody Library sure looks proportionally like its made for much bigger people than we are today!

Next, Bell Systems got its start in 1877 when the first telephone exchange opened in New Haven, Connecticut, and we are told named after Alexander Graham Bell, who was credited with patenting the first telephone, and was one of the co-founders of AT & T in 1885, along with his father-in-law, Gardiner Green Hubbard.

In addition, both men of these men were heavily involved with the founding of the National Geographic Society in January of 1888, which we are told began as an elite club for academics and wealthy patrons for the purpose of “the increase and diffusion of geographical knowledge.”

The Bell Labs complex in Holmdel, New Jersey, was where researchers like Karl Jansky were credited with the discovery of radio waves coming from the Galactic Center and the development of radio astronomy.

The Holmdel Complex, in use by Bell Labs for approximately 44-years starting from around 1962 was called “The Biggest Mirror Ever,” and located near the entrance to lower New York Bay.

Today it is a mixed-use office for high-tech start-up companies, but it started out as a research and development facility for Bell Systems, which became Bell Labs, and the work-place for 6,000 engineers and researchers.

I believe that those behind the reset of Earth’s history and the New World Order deliberately caused a cataclysm via directed energy into the grid system relatively recently, which devastated the surface of the Earth, simultaneously causing the land to undulate and buckle, causing among other things, swamps, bogs, deserts, dunes, and whole land masses to shear-off and submerge under seas and oceans, and that the European colonizers we learn about in our history were exploring and claiming the land of a post-cataclysmic world.

A sudden cataclysmic event, creating swamps, deserts, and even submerging entire landmasses around the Earth, would account for how a highly advanced worldwide civilization of giant could be wiped from the face of the Earth and erased from our collective memory…

Secondly, I believe the beings behind the cataclysm were shovel-ready to dig enough of the original infrastructure out of the ruined Earth so they could be used and civilization restarted, which I think started in earnest in the mid-to-late 1700s and early 1800s.

Then they only used the pre-existing infrastructure until they found replacement fuel sources that could be monetized and controlled by them for what had originally been a free-energy power grid and transportation system worldwide, and when what remained of the original infrastructure was no longer useful to them, or inconvenient to their agenda, they had it destroyed, discontinued, or abandoned, typically in a very short time after it was said to have been constructed.

I think there was a hostile take-over of the Earth and it’s grid system, which was reverse-engineered as a mind-control and energy-harvesting system.

We’ve been indoctrinated into our present belief systems through our educational systems and cultural offerings…

…which has reinforced the indoctrination through programming in things like movies, television, art, literature and music.

I believe that these beings with a negative agenda devised a complicated plan to knock Humanity off the positive ancient, advanced Moorish timeline of Higher Consciousness in an interdimensional war in order to control Humanity, using Humans as their tools against the Creator and Creation. 

I bring all this up is because it is important to know this is what has been going on here.

Humans are inherently sovereign beings.

They have gone to all of this trouble because, by Universal Law, they can’t lay a finger on us.

They have tricked us into accepting their sovereignty over our own.

But they have to tell us what they are doing so they have our consent.

So they choose avenues like movies, literature, art, and music to tell us without telling us they are telling us, and if we don’t get it and object collectively, then they technicially have our tacit consent even if we don’t know we are being told something, and that is what they are counting on.

So let’s look at some examples from public art.

Firstly, there are two identical sculptures entitled “The Awakening.”

They are of a 72-foot, or 22-meter, statue that depicts a giant embedded in the Earth, struggling to free himself.

One is at National Harbor in Oxon Hill, Maryland.

They consist of 5 aluminum pieces buried in the ground in such a way that it gives the impression of a distressed giant attempting to free himself from the ground…

…with mouth in mid-scream as the giant struggles to emerge from the Earth.

There is an identical sculpture in Chesterfield, Missouri.

I find it interesting to note that the head of the giant in these “Awakening” Sculptures, with the mouth in mid-scream, on the left, looks very much like the mouth in the head of this giant skeleton that was uncovered in Adam’s County, Ohio, near the Great Serpent Mound, on the right.

Secondly, here are some examples of sculptures around London, also very reminiscent of the two “Awakening” sculptures, of buried giants, or giants attempting to free themselves from the ground.

They are putting these sculptures in public places where people can interact with them and accept the as “Art,” without realizing that they might be communicating to us something that has been very well-hidden about the world we are living in.

I don’t believe the giants were hoaxes.

I believe the hoax is on us to hide their very existence from us, especially from not that long ago.

The Controllers have always feared the Great Awakening of Humanity, and thus threw everything they could at us to prevent it from happening and keep us asleep so we would never know what hit us.

But no matter what they do, they can’t keep it from happening. Among many other things, they lost control of the narrative no matter how hard they try to get it back.

What if something very different has been going on here on Earth from what we have always been taught to believe , and that what has been happening is only for the benefit of a very few, and not for the benefit of all, but ?

I have come to the conclusion after years of research that there is much to question in the official history and science that has come down to us as unquestionable truths, and I have pulled many of those research findings together for this post.

Napoleon is famously attributed as saying, “History is a set of lies agreed upon.”

I wholeheartedly agree with that statement, and in this post I will be sharing information and evidence I have found over the years that shed light on what the “set of lies” are in our historical narrative, and who “agreed upon” them.

The original civilization of the Earth was nothing at all like what we have been taught, and though the clues and evidence for the original ancient advanced civilization are everywhere, we just don’t recognize them as such because we have no points of reference for them.

I think it is important to begin this post with some information about how concepts of space and time are viewed in the present-day versus how they were viewed in the past.

The study of geodesy is the science of accurately measuring and understanding the Earth’s shape, orientation in space, and gravitational field.

A geographic coordinate system enables every location on Earth to be specified by a set of numbers, letters and symbols, where one of the numbers represents a vertical position from the North-South lines of longitude, and the horizontal position, from the East-West lines of latitude.

What we are told is that in cartography, the science of map-making, a map projection is the way of flattening the globe’s surface into a plane in order to make it into a map, which requires a systematic transformation of the latitudes and longitudes of locations from the surface of the globe into locations on a plane.

But what if the same process is actually happening in reverse for the tools we have available to us in our world, and that the Earth’s surface has been projected from a plane in order to make it into a globe shape by the use of the very same geographic coordinate system, and that it’s exactly the same information in a different projection?

After all, one definition of the word “coordinate” is “to bring different elements into a relationship that will ensure efficiency or harmony;” and another definition of the same word is “a group of numbers used to indicate the position of a point, line, or plane.”

This is a 1482 engraving by Johannes Schnitzer of the “Ecumene,” an ancient Greek word for the inhabited world, and used in cartography to describe a type of world map used in late antiquity and the Middle Ages.

Schnitzer was said to have constructed it from the coordinates in Claudius Ptolemy’s “Geography,” an atlas, and treatise of geography, from 150 AD said to compile the geographical knowledge of the 2nd-century Roman Empire, and a revision of the now-lost atlas of Marinus of Tyre, a Phoenician cartographer and mathematician who was said to have founded mathematical geography, and who introduced improvements to the construction of maps as well as developing a system of nautical charts.

Ptolemy was a second-century mathematician, astronomer and geographer from Alexandria in Egypt who was credited with the only mathematically-sound geocentric model of the solar system, in which everything in the Cosmos orbits around the Earth and not the Sun.

Longitude fixes the location of a place on Earth east or west of a North-South line of longitude called the Prime Meridian, given as an angular measurement that ranges from 0-degrees at the Prime Meridian to +180-degrees westward and -180-degrees eastward.

The Great Pyramid of Giza, which is located at the center of the Earth’s landmass, was the Prime Meridian, until the Prime Meridian was moved in 1851 to the Royal Observatory of Greenwich in London by the British Astronomer Royal at the time, Sir George Biddell Airy.

Carl Munck deciphers a shared mathematical code in his book and YouTube video series called “The Code,” related to the Great Pyramid, in the dimensions of the architecture of sacred sites all over the Earth, one which encodes longitude & latitude of each that cross-reference other sites. 

He shows that this pyramid code is clearly sophisticated and intentional, and perfectly aligned over long-distances.

In October of 1884, the United States hosted the International Meridian Conference, attended by twenty-five countries, in order to determine the Prime Meridian for international use.

Twenty-two of the twenty-five countries in attendance voted to adopt the longitude of the Royal Observatory in Greenwich as the zero-reference line.

The International Meridian Conference was held right before the Otto von Bismarck-organized Berlin Conference, which was convened in November of 1884 and lasted until February of 1885, during which time the entire continent of Africa was carved up between the European powers.

Interestingly, ley-lines were depicted in earlier maps.

The Catalan Atlas of the Majorcan Cartographic School is considered the most important map of the Medieval period in the Catalan language, dated to 1375.

I encountered another old map depicting ley-lines when I was researching for information on Fernando de Noronha, an island group just off the coast of Brazil.

The Cantino Planisphere was said to have been completed by an anonymous Portuguese cartographer some time before 1502.

A planisphere is defined as a map formed by the projection of a sphere, or part of a sphere, on a plane.

In May of 1543, the work “On the Revolutions of the Heavenly Spheres,” of Nicolaus Copernicus was published, offering mathematical arguments for the heliocentric, or sun-centered universe, with the planets of our solar system orbiting around the sun, and denying the geocentric model of the Earth-centered universe of Ptolemy, which the heliocentric model superseded, meaning that while once widely-accepted, current science considered the geocentric model inadequate.

History has it recorded that Copernicus had been seized with “apoplexy and paralysis” at the end of 1542, and that he died on the day he saw the final printed pages of his work, allowing him to say farewell to his life’s work.

It would also seem that the Earth’s ley-lines started to disappear from maps in the 1500s, as Gerardus Mercator, a Flemish geographer, cartographer and cosmographer, published a world map in 1569 that is considered to be the first where sailing courses on the sphere were mapped to the plane map, allowing for a “correction of the chart to be more useful for sailors.”

Here is a close-up section of the 1569 map showing the depiction of straight ley-lines in the seas, but not on land and sea as were present on the flat projections of the Cantino Planisphere and the Catalan Atlas.

Not only that, Gerardus Mercator was also a globe-maker, like this one from 1541, just two-years before Nicolas Copernicus published “On the Revolutions of the Heavenly Spheres” in 1543, with his arguments for the heliocentric universe.

The Erdapfel, which translates from the German as “potato,” was said to be a terrestrial globe produced by Martin Behaim, a German textile merchant and cartographer, between 1490 and 1492, around the time of the Fall of Grenada in Spain, and the first voyage of Christopher Columbus to the New World.

This engraving of him was said to have been done in 1886.

We are told the Erdapfel is the oldest surviving terrestrial globe.

It is a laminated linen ball, constructed in two-halves, reinforced with wood and overlaid by a map painted by Georg Glockendon, pasted on a layer of parchment around the globe.

The German-English geographer and cartographer, Ernst Georg Ravenstein, who was born in Germany in 1834, but spent most of his adult life in England, wrote a book about Martin Behaim and his Erdapfel in 1908, and, as we shall see, Mr. Ravenstein’s name will come up again in more than one reference in this post.

This is Australia showing as “New Holland” on what is known to history as the Coronelli Globe, which was commissioned in 1681.

We are told in our historical narrative that mainland Australia first received the name “New Holland” because the first European who sighted it was a Dutch navigator for the Dutch East India Company in 1606 named Willem Janszoon, who was also a colonial Governor in the Dutch East Indies during the years between 1603 and 1616.

Interestingly, the name “Southern Land” or “Terra Australis” was also used on early European maps of the region.

We are told that “Terra Australis” was a legendary hypothetical continent mentioned since antiquity and appearing on maps between the 15th and 18th centuries.

This information was downplayed and obfuscated in our narrative, but I find this very interesting because I believe we are looking at a substantial amount of sunken landmasses not only here, but all around the world.

We are told that Vincenzo Coronelli became a Franciscan novice in 1665, around the same time as the red-letter year of 1666 in our historical narrative that I talked about previously, and he went on to become an esteemed cosmographer, cartographer and publisher, known in particular for his atlases and globes, and that in 1678 he was commissioned to make a set of terrestrial and celestial globes for the Duke of Parma.

In 1699, he was made Father General of the Franciscan Order. He lived most of his life in Venice and died there in 1718.

We are told in our historical narrative that the Franciscans were members of related-religious orders that were founded by St. Francis of Assisi in 1209, and that Franciscans were at the vanguard of missionary activity in the New World, aimed primarily at bringing the indigenous people of the Americas to Catholicism.

At this point, I think the Franciscans were, like the Jesuits, actually playing a role in advancing the agenda of those behind the New World Order, and probably all Catholic religious orders were for that matter, and that they were actually doing something very different from the pious and holy lifestyle in dedication to God and in service to Humanity that we are taught about them.

The same year that Vincenzo Coronelli became a Franciscan novice in 1665 was also the year given to us in which Sir Isaac Newton had been developing his theory of gravity, and that in 1666, Newton famously observed the falling apple upon which he developed his foundational law that gravity is universal, incorporating the idea that Kepler’s Laws must also apply to the orbit of the moon around the Earth and then to all objects on Earth.

Kepler’s work was said to have improved the 1543 model of Copernicus by introducing more defined terminology for the orbits of the planets around the sun instead of just saying that’s what they do.

Next, I will begin a more in-depth overview of what our narrative tells about our history with the early explorers of the Age of Discovery, which we are told emerged as a powerful factor in European culture and was the beginning of globalization.

It was when I was researching this topic in “Creating the New World from the Old World – Part 3 The Centuries of Exploration” in June of 2020 that I first came to believe that the history about early explorers in school and in our culture is back-filled information and did not really happen as we have been taught.

The primary initiator of the earliest time period of maritime exploration in our historical narrative, known as “The Age of Discovery, was Prince Henry the Navigator, who was said to have been born in 1394.

The fourth child of the Portuguese King John I, he was a central figure in the early days of the Portuguese Empire, and in the 15th-century European maritime discoveries and maritime expansion.

The Portuguese Empire was composed of the overseas colonies and territories governed by Portugal, existing from 1415 with the capture of the port of Ceuta, on the Moroccan-side of the Strait of Gibraltar…

…to the handover of Portuguese Macau to China in 1999, the last remaining dependent state in China and the final vestige of European colonialism in the region, we are told, after 442-years of Portuguese rule.

Macau is designated as an autonomous region on the south coast of China, across the Pearl River Delta from Hong Kong…

…where there is Moorish-looking architecture in Macau on the left that looks like what is found in Madrid, Spain, on the right…

…as well as Venice, Italy, in Macau.

The Venetian Resort in Macau on the left is owned by the American Las Vegas Sands Company, which was said to have opened in 2007 after the main hotel tower was completed.

For comparison, the Bell Tower of St. Mark’s Basilica in Venice, said to have been built starting in the early 10th-century, is in the middle, and the Giralda Bell Tower, acknowledged Moorish architecture said to have been first completed in 1198 AD, is on the right.

Interesting to note, the location of Venice in Italy is in coastal wetlands that include salt marshes, mud flats, reed beds and seagrass meadows.

The famous city is situated on 100 small islands in the Venetian lagoon on the Adriatic Sea, with no roads – just canals, and it is well-known that Venice is sinking.

At any rate, Prince Henry the Navigator, who was involved in the capture of Ceuta, took the lead role in promoting and financing Portuguese maritime exploration until his death in 1460.

One last thing about Prince Henry.

Apparently no one used the nickname “the Navigator” during his lifetime, or in the following three centuries.

We are told the term was coined by two 19th-century German historians – Heinrich Schaefer and Gustave de Veer – and that the nickname was popularized by two British authors in the titles of their biographies of Prince Henry.

One was by Richard Henry Major in 1868…

…and the other was by Raymond Beazley in 1895.

I found the nationalities of the authors of Prince Henry’s biographies to be noteworthy, as well as the time-frame within which they were published, in the period of time after which, I have come believe from my research, the New World Order timeline was officially kicked off by Queen Victoria at the Crystal Palace Exposition, which opened on May 1st of 1851.

The next Portuguese explorer to come on the scene was Bartolomeu Dias, a nobleman of the Portuguese royal household.

We are told he sailed around the southernmost tip of Africa, the Cape of Good Hope, in 1488, setting up the route from Europe to Asia later on.

He was also said to be the first European during the “Age of Discovery” to anchor at what is present-day South Africa.

Bartolomeu Dias was the sailing master of the caravel “Sao Cristovao” or “Saint Christopher.”

In 1487, he led a Portuguese exploration expedition down the west coast of Africa of present-day Ghana, known for its gold, petroleum, sweet crude oil, and natural gas.

The Portuguese Gold Coast was the first claim.

The Dutch arrived in 1598 and in 1642, incorporated the Portuguese Territory into the Dutch Gold Coast.

The Dutch East India Company was chartered on March 20th of 1602, when the Dutch government granted it a 21-year monopoly for the Dutch spice trade. 

It was a megacorporation, which is defined as a massive conglomerate (usually private) holding near-monopolistic, if not monopolistic, control over multiple markets.

It has often been labelled a trading or shipping company, but was in fact a proto-conglomerate, diversifying into multiple commercial and industrial activities.

The first formally listed public company by widely issuing shares of stock and bonds to the general public in the early 1600s, it was the world’s most valuable company of all-time, with a worth of $7.9-trillion, and considered by many to be to have been the forerunner of modern corporations.

This was said to be a 1675 map of the Dutch Gold Coast, depicting ley-lines.

Then the Prussians established the Brandenburger Gold Coast in the area in 1682, for less than 50-years, when they sold it to the Dutch in 1742.

The Swedes established settlements on the Swedish Gold Coast starting in 1650, but this state-of-affairs, was said to have only lasted 13-years…

…because in 1663, Denmark seized the Swedish territory, and incorporated it into the Danish Gold Coast.

Then in 1850, all of the settlements became part of the British Gold Coast…

…which remained in British hands in 1885 after the Berlin Conference.

Now back to Bartolomeu Dias.

In the 1487 expedition of Bartolomeu Dias, after the caravel left the Portuguese Gold Coast, the crew sailed to Walvis Bay, the name of the location in modern Namibia, the name of the location in modern Namibia with its decidedly geometric- and man-made-looking shape.

After encountering violent storms along the way, the ship eventually rounded the Cape of Good Hope, the name it received from King John II of Portugal because it represented an opening of a route to the East.

The expedition ended up not going any further, and set sail back for Portugal, returning to Lisbon, the capital of Portugal, in 1488.

Not only did I find the German-English geographer and cartographer, Ernst Georg Ravenstein, come up  in association with a biography of Bartolomeu Dias…

… he also published “A Journal of the First Voyage of Vasco Da Gama” in 1898, the next Portuguese explorer of note, who made it to India in a journey between 1497 and 1499.

Ravenstein was said to have translated what was called the only known copy of a journal believed to have been written on-board ship during Vasco da Gama’s voyage to India.

We are told that Vasco da Gama’s first voyage to India was the first link to Europe and Asia by an ocean route.

He was said to have landed in Calicut on May 20th of 1498.

This was said to be a steel engraving from the 1850s of the meeting between the King of Calicut and Vasco da Gama, which apparently didn’t yield the favorable results the Portuguese explorer desired, as it failed to yield the commercial treaty with Calicut that was da Gama’s principal mission.

Regardless of the failure to secure a commercial treaty with the King of Calicut, we are taught that Vasco da Gama’s voyage to and from India led to the yearly Portuguese India Armadas, fleets of ships organized by the King of Portugal dispatched on an annual basis from Portugal to India…

…and 6-years after da Gama’s initial arrival in 1498, the Portuguese State of India was founded.

Portugal’s unopposed access to the Indian spice trade routes boosted the economy of its empire, and maintained a commercial monopoly on spice commodities for several decades.

We are taught that Vasco da Gama’s discovery of the sea route to India was what enabled the Portuguese to establish a long-lasting colonial empire in Asia.

It was considered a milestone in world history and the beginning of a sea-based phase of global multiculturalism.

In our historical narrative, the Treaty of Tordesillas of 1494 divided the newly discovered lands outside Europe between the Portuguese Empire and the Spanish Empire (Crown of Castile), along a meridian 370 leagues west of the Cape Verde Islands, with Spain claiming lands to the west of it and Portugal lands to the east of it.

This was a year after Pope Alexander VI issued the Inter Cetera Papal Bull, which authorized the land grab of the Americas.

This papal bull became a major document in the development of subsequent legal doctrines regarding claims of empire in the “New World” and assigned to Castile in Spain the exclusive right to acquire territory, to trade in, or even approach the lands laying west of the meridian situated one-hundred leagues west of the Azores and Cape Verde Islands, except for any lands actually possessed by any other Christian prince beyond this meridian prior to Christmas, 1492.

The year of 1492 was the year Christopher Columbus first set-sail and also the same year as the Fall of Grenada, which took place on January 2nd of 1492, and which effectively ended Moorish rule in Spain when Muhammad XII surrendered the Emirate of Grenada to King Ferdinand of Aragon and Queen Isabella of Castile.

A papal bull is an official papal letter or document, named after the leaden seal, or bulla, used to authenticate it.

They figure prominently in the effort to authenticate what has taken place on earth in the historical narrative we have been taught.

Then, 35-years later, the Treaty of Zaragoza was signed, which specified the Antimeridian to the line of demarcation specified by the Treaty of Tordesillas, defining the areas of Spanish and Portuguese influence in Asia.

St. Francis Xavier, a co-founder of the Jesuits, along with St. Ignatius of Loyola, was a representative of the Portuguese Empire in Asia, and noteworthy for his so-called “evangelization” work in Portuguese India.

In our historical narrative, it was St. Francis Xavier who called for the establishment of the “Goan Inquisition” in India to enforce Catholic Orthodoxy and allegiance to the Pope.

It was particularly known for imprisonment, torture, death penalties, and intimidating people into exile.

We are taught that Pope Paul III issued a papal bull forming the Jesuit Order in 1540, under the leadership of Ignatius of Loyola, a Basque nobleman from the Pyrenees in Northern Spain, about the same time that Nicolas Copernicus was publishing “On the Revolutions of the Heavenly Spheres” in 1543, with his arguments for the heliocentric universe, Gerardus Mercator was making a globe in 1541.

The Jesuit Order included a special vow of obedience to the Pope in matters of mission direction and assignment.

Whoever the Jesuits and the Freemasons were are at the top of my list of suspects for who was primarily responsible for giving us our new, fabricated historical narrative.

We shall see more examples in support of this belief throughout this post.

Two years after the Jesuits were established, in the year of 1542, we are told Pope Paul III established the Holy Office, also known as the Inquisition and the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith.

Pedro Alvares Cabral, a Portuguese nobleman, military commander, navigator and explorer, was a contemporary of Vasco da Gama in our historical narrative.

Cabral was said to have led a fleet of thirteen ships into the western Atlantic Ocean, and made landfall in what we know as Brazil in 1500.

As the new land was in the Portuguese sphere according to the 1494 Treaty of Tordesillas, Cabral claimed it for the Portuguese Crown.

He explored the coast, and realized, we are told, that the large land-mass was most likely a continent, and dispatched a ship to notify the Portuguese King, Manuel I of the new territory.

The land Cabral had claimed for Portugal later became known as Brazil on the continent of South America.

Then from Brazil, Cabral turned his fleet eastward to sail to India.

He was said to have lost seven of his thirteen ships in a storm in the southern Atlantic Ocean.

The remains of Cabral’s fleet regrouped in the Mozambique Channel, located between the East African country of Mozambique and the island of Madagascar.

Mozambique had become a Portuguese colony in 1498 as a result of Vasco da Gama’s first voyage, and is known for what is described as its Portuguese colonial architecture.

Here are some examples from Maputo, the capital of Mozambique.

We accept the idea that the colonial Portuguese built infrastructure like this because it is what we have been taught.

At the same time we are taught that the indigenous people of Mozambique were the San, who were hunter-gatherers, and we can’t even imagine that they were the builders of this magnificent architecture because of the vastness of the deception that has been perpetrated on Humanity.

The San, also known as bushmen, are considered the oldest inhabitants of southern Africa, with a history there said to date back 20,000-years, and are among the oldest peoples in the world.

From the Mozambique Channel, Cabral’s fleet sailed to Calicut in India, at which time Cabral was said to have been attacked by Muslims stirred up by Arab traders who saw the Portuguese venture as a threat to their monopoly.

Cabral was said to have retaliated, with his men looting and burning the Arab fleet at Calicut, and he sailed onto the Kingdom of Cochin, befriended its ruler, founded the first European settlement in India at Kochi, and loaded his ships with coveted spices before returning to Portugal.

After his return, Cabral’s voyage was deemed a success, in spite of the loss of ships and lives, and we are told the extraordinary profits resulting from the sale of the spices he brought back with him helped lay the foundation of the Portuguese Empire.

Interestingly, apparently after that, Cabral slipped into obscurity for 300 years, until the 1840s that is, when the Brazilian Emperor Dom Pedro II sponsored research and publications dealing with Cabral’s life and expeditions.

Dom Pedro II did this through the Brazilian Historical and Geographic Institute, which was founded in 1838, and part of the emperor’s plan to foster and strengthen a sense of nationalism among Brazil’s diverse citizenry.

Petropolis is the name of a German-colonized mountain town 42-miles, or 68-kilometers, north of Rio de Janeiro.

Called the “Imperial City,” the Emperor Pedro II was said to issue an imperial decree ordering the construction of a settlement to be formed, with the arrival of German immigrants, as well as for the construction of his summer palace there, with the cornerstone said to have been laid in 1845, and that it was built by 1847.

Interesting edifice, and intriguing blue glow of its steeple, in Petropolis.

The first cinema was said to have opened in Petropolis in 1897, showing the Lumiere Brothers first films.

The Lumiere Brothers premiered ten short films in Paris on December 28th of 1895, considered the breakthrough of projected cinematography, meaning pertaining to the art or technique of motion picture photography.

Marcus Loew was a pioneer of the motion picture industry.

He founded Loew’s Theaters in 1904, the oldest theater chain operating in the United States until it merged with AMC Theaters in 2006, and he was a founder Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios in 1924.

A poor young man made good, he was born into a poor Jewish family in New York City. His parents were immigrants from Austria and Germany.

He had to work from a young age and had little formal education.

We are told he was able to save enough money from menial jobs to buy into the penny arcade business as his first business investment.

Important to note that the birth of the viable interactive entertainment industry in 1972 resulted from the coin-operated entertainment business, which had well-developed manufacturing and distribution channels around the world, and computer technology that had become cheap enough to incorporate into mass market entertainment products.

The year of 1972 was the year that Magnavox released the world’s first home video game console, the Magnavox Odyssey.

While there were other less well-known video arcade games released around 1972, the first block-buster video arcade game was “Space Invaders,” responsible in 1978 for starting what is called the “Golden Age of Video Arcade Games.”

So there is a direct connection through time between penny arcade games and video arcade games.

Not long after buying into the penny arcade business, Loew purchased a nickelodeon in partnership with Adolph Zukor.

A Nickelodeon was a type of indoor exhibition space dedicated to showing projected motion pictures.

His first nickelodeon partner, Adolph Zukor, who along with Marcus Loew, was one of the founders of Paramount Pictures, which was formed in 1912.

Next of the early explorers, Ferdinand Magellen was a Portuguese explorer who organized the Spanish expedition, which started in 1519 and ended in 1522, to the Spanish East Indies, a fleet known as the “Armada de Molucca” to reach the Spice Islands, and said to have resulted in the first circumnavigation of the earth.

Magellan was said to have been killed in the Philippines in the Battle of Mactan on April 27th of 1521, and a Basque-Spanish explorer by the name of Juan Sebastian de Elcano was said to have completed the expedition after Magellan’s death, from the Moluccas and back to Spain.

I found a biography about Magellan written by an Austrian novelist, playwright, journalist and biographer named Stefan Zweig, who was born in Vienna in 1881, and died, along with his wife, of all places in Petropolis, Brazil in 1942, we are told from barbituate overdoses.

Back to the Moluccas.

The Moluccas that Juan Sebastian de Elcano reached and sailed back to Spain from are also known as the Spice Islands, because of the nutmeg, spice, and cloves that were exclusively found there, the presence of which sparked extreme colonial interest from Europe in the 16th-century.

So much so, that the Dutch-Portuguese War between 1601 and 1663 was also known as the Spice War, the commodity at the center of the conflict.

Beginning in 1602, the conflict was said to have primarily involved the Dutch companies invading Portuguese colonies in the Americas, Africa, India, and the Far East.

The Dutch-Portuguese War was said to have served as a way for the Dutch to gain an overseas empire and control trade at the cost of the Portuguese.

Other notable explorers from the first “Age of Discovery” included:

Giovanni da Verrazzano was said to be a Florentine explorer, in the service of the French King Francis I, and credited with being the first European to explore the Atlantic Coast of North America between Florida and New Brunswick between 1523 and 1524.

This included New York Bay, where the Verrazzano Narrows and Bridge forever enshrine his memory, with Fort Hamilton on the Brooklyn-side and Fort Wadsworth on the Staten Island-side.

Verrazano also explored Rhode Island’s Narragansett Bay in 1524, and he even gave Rhode Island its name, we are told, when he was said to have likened an island near the mouth of Narragansett Bay to the Island of Rhodes.

The island of Rhodes is the largest of the Dodecanese Islands in the Mediterranean Sea pictured here.

The City Gate of the Island of Rhodes is on the right.

What kinds of things do we find in Rhode Island in the United States.

Well, for one, the Narragansett Twin Towers, what is said to be the remnant of the Narraganset Pier Casino said to have been built in the 1880’s.

…and for another at Waterplace Park in downtown Providence, where there is the presence of megalithic masonry.

The park was said to have been finished in 1994.

The meaning of megalith is a large stone used in construction, typically associated with Peru and Egypt, but actually found everywhere around the world. Here is another megalithic wall at Waterplace Park.

The Narragansetts are an Algonquin people whose land is now Rhode Island. Here is an historic photo of the Narragansett.

We are told that the book “Verrazano’s Voyage Along the Atlantic Coast of North America, 1524,” was reproduced from an original artifact that was written by Giovanni da Verrazzano himself.

It was published in 1916, with an introduction by Edward Hagaman Hall, a New York State historian who was born in 1858 and died in 1936.

Edward Hagaman Hall also published a book about Jamestown, Virginia in 1902.

What I remember about Jamestown, which I visited with my parents when I was 6-years-old on a trip to Williamsburg in 1969, is that it was supposed to have looked something like this, and that when the colonial capital was moved to Williamsburg in 1699, Jamestown was said to have ceased to exist as a settlement.

These brick masonry ruins are in Jamestown…

…even though the attention of tourists is drawn to the living history museum there.

It is interesting to note that when I was doing research on Expositions and World Fairs awhile back, I came across the 1907 Jamestown Exposition, said to have commemorated the 300th-anniversary of the founding of Jamestown in the Virginia Colony.

It was held on Sewell’s Point at Hampton Roads in Norfolk, Virginia.

Sewell’s Point is the location of Norfolk Naval Base in today’s world.

Next, Henry Hudson was said to have been an English navigator and explorer during the early 17th-century, best known for his explorations of parts of the northeastern United States and Canada.

Between 1607 and 1611, he was engaged by various trading companies to sail to the Far North to find another way to Asia, via either the Northeast Passage or Northwest Passage.

We are told that in 1609, Henry Hudson was chosen by Dutch East India Company merchants to find an easterly passage to Asia.

His attempts to go in an eastward direction were said to have been blocked by ice in northern Norway, so he decided to go west and find a northerly passage through North America.

His ship, the Half Moon, travelled down the coast, from LaHave in Nova Scotia; to Cape Cod; to the Chesapeake Bay; to Delaware Bay; then New York Bay…

…and the river which bears his name, New York’s Hudson River.

Then Henry Hudson received backing from the Virginia Company and British East India Company in 1610, and sailed north to Iceland and Greenland in his new ship, the “Discovery,” and then across the Labrador Sea to what is now the Hudson Strait at the northern tip of Labrador, and through when he entered the Hudson Bay.

Hudson met his death in the James Bay region of the Hudson Bay, when his crew mutinied, and sent him, his son, and 7 crew members adrift in a small boat with limited supplies.

Did Henry Hudson happen to have anything thing published about him in the late 19th-century, early 20th-century?

I found this 1909 publication about Henry Hudson by Thomas Allibone Janvier, described as an American story-writer and historian, who was born in 1849 and died in 1913.

What was called a replica of Henry Hudson’s ship the “Half Moon” was said to have been built in 1912 and moored at the dock of the Bear Mountain State Park on the Hudson River.

With regards to the history of this park, this is what we are told.

In January of 1909, the State of New York purchased a 740-acre tract of land at Bear Mountain, with plans to build Sing-Sing Prison there, but conservationists stopped the prison from being built.

Later that year, the newly-widowed Mary Averell Harriman, wife of Union Pacific Railroad President and American Financier Edward Henry Harriman who died in September of 1909, offered the state another 10,000 acres – and $1,000,000 – towards the creation of a state park.

American Progressive politician and businessman George W. Perkins, a partner in the J. P. Morgan Company and President of the Palisades Interstate Commission since 1900, with whom Mary Harriman had been working, managed to raise another $1.5-million from a dozen wealthy contributors, including John D. Rockefeller and J. P. Morgan.

The state matched the contributions with a $2.5-million appropriation, and Bear Mountain-Harriman State Park came into being in 1910, and managed by the Palisades Interstate Commission, which was formed in 1900 by New York Governor Theodore Roosevelt and New Jersey Governor Foster Vorhees, for the stated reason of stopping the quarrying activities along the Palisades Cliffs of New Jersey.

In 1931, the Brown Brothers, originating from the first investment banking firm in the United States in 1800, merged with the Harriman Brothers & Company, a private bank started with railway money, to become known as the “Brown Brothers Harriman & Company,” one of the oldest and largest private investment banks in the United States.

Founding partners of the “Brown Brothers Harriman & Company” included W. Averill Harriman, the son of railroad baron E. H. Harriman and Mary Harriman, and Secretary of Commerce under President Harry S. Truman…

…and Prescott Bush, American banker and politician, and the father of President George H. W. Bush.

Another Harriman, E. Roland Harriman AKA “Bunny,” was the Chairperson of the Board of Governors of the American Red Cross from 1950 to 1973.

Prescott Bush and Roland Harriman attended Yale University at the same time, where they were both members of the “Skull and Bones” Society.

Also, thus far in the series I have been recently doing on the Great Lakes Region of North America, I have found that there was a pervasive Jesuit and Franciscan presence all over Lake Superior, Lake Michigan, and Lake Huron in our historical narrative.

When I was looking for information on the Huron people, I found out that they were mentioned in the chronicles of Jesuit Missions in New France from 1632 to 1673 called “The Jesuit Relations,” which were said to be reports from missionaries in the field to update their superiors on their progress in converting them.

This report was said to be from Gabriel Sagard in 1632 with regards to the country of the Hurons.

Sagard was a French Franciscan lay brother known for being one of the earliest missionaries to New France.

This passage from 1639 in the “Jesuit Relations” describes the Hurons as robust and tall, and wearing beaver skins, necklaces and bracelets of porcelain, and grease their hair and paint their faces.

We are told the European history of St. Ignace in Michigan on the Straits of Mackinac on the southern end of the Upper Peninula across from Mackinaw City on the Upper end of the Lower Peninsula began when the French Jesuit explorer Father Jacques Marquette founded the St. Ignace Mission here in 1671, and named it after St. Ignatius of Loyola, a founder of the Jesuit Order like the previously-mentioned St. Francis Xavier, infamous for the Goan Inquisition in India.

Father Jacques Marquette was said to have been buried in St. Ignace after his death in 1675.

This is the marker for his gravesite.

It is also the location of the Father Marquette National Memorial, which was established in December of 1975 to pay tribute to his life and work.

Father Marquette’s presence can be found in many places throughout the Great Lakes Region, particularly on Lake Michigan, Lake Superior, and where the St. Mary’s River and the Straits of Mackinac connect to Lake Huron.

We are told the city of Charlevoix in Michigan was named for the Jesuit explorer Pierre Francois Xavier de Charlevoix, who stayed the night during a storm near his namesake city some time in the 1720s.

The Ottawa and Ojibwe peoples lived throughout northern Michigan prior to the arrival of the Jesuits and the European colonizers.

The Jesuit explorer Charlevoix was known for the journal record he kept of his exploration of New France in present-day Canada and the United States first published in 1744 as the “History and General Description of New France.”

Also for another example in our historical narrative, the Kewaunee area of Wisconsin was visited by the French Jesuit explorer Father Jacques Marquette in 1674, where he was said to have celebrated “All Saints Day” at the Potawatomi village there at the time, though this is in the traditional lands of the Menimonee people.

Later in 1679, the French explorer LaSalle visited there, and in 1698, the Canadian Jesuit Jean-Francois Buisson de Saint-Cosme stopped by.

We are told the United States acquired this land from the Menominee Nation in the 1831 Treaty of Washington, in which the Menominee ceded 2,500,000-acres, or 1,011,714-hectares, of their land in Wisconsin primarily adjacent to Lake Michigan.

We are taught from cradle-to-grave that the indigenous people of this land were uncivilized tribes of hunter-gatherers.

This is a painting by an artist named Paul Kane, who died in 1871, called “Fishing by Torchlight,” of the Menominee spearfishing at night by torchlight and canoe on the Fox River.

Yet we find architecture of heavy masonry like the Mabel Tainter Memorial Theater here in the city of Menomonie, Wisconsin, 237-miles, or 381-kilometers, to the northwest of Milwaukee, said to have been built in 1889…

…that looks like the acknowledged Moorish architecture of the Alhambra in Grenada, Spain, on the inside.

It is my conclusion that publications like these and many others I have come across in my research were setting the stage in seeding the new historical narrative into our collective consciousness by those responsible for the hijack of the original positive civilization that built all of Earth’s infrastructure, and that it is fabricated and backfilled history.

They want us to believe that they built everything and that the indigenous people around the world were primitive hunter-gatherers instead of being the actual builders of a highly advanced, ancient worldwide civilization that was wiped off the face of the Earth by the deliberately-caused destruction of the original free-energy grid system of this civilization.

Since this is not in our historical narrative, we don’t even question what we are told about it being built by other cultures or civilizations, and believe that the indigenous people were in fact primitive hunter-gatherers without hesitation.

At some point, possibly the mid-to-late 1700s, I believe history became real with the world’s new controllers written into it, and along these lines, I think the explorers of the Age of Exploration in the 1800s actually existed, when we are told a new era of scientific maritime exploration commenced in the 1800s, but not for the reasons we have been given.

I believe these explorations and others that took place primarily from the beginning of the 1800s to around 1850 or so were of a post-cataclysmic world, in which different European countries were engaged in exploring and claiming landmasses for their respective countries, and also remote islands and island groups all over the Earth that were actually the remnants of giant trees and sunken landmasses, and annexing them as “Overseas Countries, Territories and Outermost Regions.”

As a result of this process of colonization of the entire surface of the Earth, seemingly insignificant islands and island groups were the subjects of territorial disputes between countries, most of which are still on-going in the present day.

All of these places and islands are viewed as highly-coveted prizes, and as a critical part to nation-building plans.

Why?

I definitely think there is much more to the story that we are not being told, especially with regards to the once-existence of giant trees on Earth that were integral to the Earth’s original energy grid system, and the reason has been deliberately hidden from our view.

I have come to believe as a result of my research that the giant trees were generating the Earth’s magnetic field.

Our current scientific paradigm tells us that the Earth’s magnetic field is generated through a process known as “geodynamo” by electric currents due to the motion of convection currents of a mixture of Earth’s molten iron and nickel in Earth’s outer core and connected to the Earth’s rotational axis, and for which we are given no other explanation and that we have seen enshrined in the work of Copernicus, Kepler and Newton.

Explorers like Alexander von Humboldt, a Prussian naturalist, who was a pioneer of the fields of biogeography and geomagnetism, and an explorer of the Americas between 1799 and 1804, starting with an exploration of Mount Teide on Tenerife in the Canary Islands.

Alexander von Humboldt was considered one of the founders of the science of geomagnetism, having studied in great detail the systematic change of magnetic field strength with distance from the equator and initiated synchronized magnetic field observations across the Earth, and he made significant contributions to the charting of the Earth’s geomagnetic field.

In this world map of his, von Humboldt measured “isodynams” between 1790 and 1830.”

The prefix “iso-” means “equal, like, or similar” and the definition of isodynam, or isodynamic, is connecting points on the Earth’s surface that connects points of equal horizontal magnetic intensity

Was Humboldt measuring and mapping ancient giant tree locations?

I think so.

Humboldt University in Berlin was named after Alexander von Humboldt and his brother Wilhelm.

It was first opened in 1810, and was regarded as one of the world’s pre-eminent universities in the study of Natural Sciences in the 1800s and 1900s.

Famous faculty and alumni included such famous names in our current historical narrative as: the theoretical physicist Albert Einstein; Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels, c0-collaborators on “The Communist Manifesto;” Otto von Bismarck, first Chancellor of the German Empire; Georg Hegel, whose philosophy gave us the “Hegelian Dialectic” of Problem-Reaction-Solution; and the Brothers Grimm, best-known for their dark fairy tales.

Then between 1801 and 1803, Capt. Matthew Flinders led the first in-shore complete navigations around mainland Australia.

We are told the Louisiana Purchase was the acquisition of the Territory of Louisiana by the United States from France with the signing of the Louisiana Purchase Treaty on April 30th of 1803, which was officially announced on July 4th of 1803.

It was said to have doubled the size of the United States and paved the way for the nation’s westward expansion, and paved the way for the Lewis and Clark Expedition, also known as the Corps of Discovery, which took place between 1803 and 1806.

Meriwether Lewis had returned from the Lewis & Clark Expedition in 1806; was made Governor of Louisiana Territory in 1807 by Thomas Jefferson; and had made arrangements to publish his Corps of Discovery Journals.

For a point of information, he was initiated into freemasonry between 1796 and 1797, from where he was born and raised in Ablemarle County, Virginia Colony, shortly after he joined the United States Army in 1795.

Being Governor of the Louisiana Territory didn’t work too well for Lewis for a variety of reasons, and on September 3rd of 1809, he set out for Washington, DC, to address financial issues that had arisen as a result of denied payments of drafts he had drawn against the War Department when he was governor…and he carried with him his journals for delivery to his publisher.

He decided to go overland to Washington instead of via ship by way of New Orleans, and stayed for the night at a place called Grinder’s Stand, an inn on the historic Natchez Trace, southwest of Nashville, Tennessee.

Gunshots were heard in the early morning hours, and he was said to have been found with multiple gunshot wounds to the head and gut.

His remains were interred here at Grinder’s Stand.

We are told that Thomas Jefferson and some historians generally accepted Lewis’ death as a suicide.

What did he know?

Who would have wanted him silenced?

What happened to his journals?

Did someone nicely get them along to his publisher for him as written?

In August of 1822, Jules Dumont d’Urville set out from France on an expedition to collect scientific and strategic information, on a ship named originally La Coquille, and sailed to the Falkland Islands; the coasts of Peru and Chile in South America; New Guinea; New Zealand and Australia.

The expedition carried out research in the fields of botany and insects, bringing back thousands of specimens to the Natural History Museum in Paris.

Then, 1826, Dumont d’Urville departed on La Coquille, now called L’Astrolabe, or the Astrolabe, named for a navigational device. for a three-year voyage to New Zealand; Fiji; the Loyalty Islands; New Guinea; the Solomon Islands, Caroline Islands, and the Moluccas in eastern Indonesia.

In 1837, Dumont d’Urville set out yet again on the Astrolabe for the South Orkney Islands in the Southern Ocean; the Marquesas Islands; Tasmania; along the coast of Antarctica, at which time he claimed land on January 21st of 1840 for France, and considered it his most significant achievement.

He named it Adelie Land after his wife Adele.

He then sailed onto New Zealand; the Torres Strait; Reunion Island; and St. Helena island, and returning to France later in 1840.

He was promoted to Rear Admiral upon his return, and he wrote a report of the expedition, which was published between 1841 and 1854 in 24 volumes.

Like with Meriwether Lewis, an interesting side-note about Dumont d’Urville’s life was his death – he and his entire family were killed in the first ever rail disaster in France in May of 1842, called the Versailles Rail Accident, in which the train’s locomotive derailed, the wagons rolled, and the coal tender ended up at the front of the train and caught fire.

This was said to be a painting of the incident.

The U. S. Exploring Expedition was another exploring and surveying expedition of the Pacific Ocean and the surrounding lands, conducted by the United States between 1838 and 1842.

The expedition was described as of major importance to the growth of science in the United States, and that during the events of its occurrence, armed conflict between Pacific Islanders and the expedition was common, and dozens of natives were killed, as well as a few Americans.

It involved a squadron of four ships, with specialists on each including naturalists, botanists, a mineralogist, a taxidermist, and a philologist, which is someone who studies written and oral histories.

It is sometimes referred to as the “U. S. Ex. Ex.” or “Wilkes Expedition,” after the commanding officer, Navy Lt. Charles Wilkes.

The ships of the Wilkes Expedition was said to have departed from Hampton Roads in Virginia for the first stop in the Madeira Islands off the coast of Africa on August 18th, 1838.

The routes of the expedition went something like this – all over the place.

The squadron of ships pretty much sailed together, at different rates of speed, from their first stop at Madeira, to Rio de Janeiro in Brazil; Tierra del Fuego at the southern tip of South America; Valparaiso in Chile; Callao in Peru; the islands of Tahiti, and Samoa, in the South Pacific; Sydney in Australia; Antarctica, which they arrived at and “discovered” on January 16th of 1840, just mere days before the completely different expedition of Dumont d’Urville’s claimed land on Antarctica on January 21st of 1840; and then, by way of Fiji, to the Sandwich Islands (otherwise known as the Hawaiian Islands), before returning to the United States. The ships did break-off into pairs on occasion to explore different places in the same general location.

Then there were the voyages of the HMS Beagle, originally a Cherokee class 10-gun boat of the British Royal Navy, said to have set off from the Royal Dockland of Woolwich at the River Thames on May 11th of 1820.

The HMS Beagle’s first voyage was between 1826 and 1830, accompanying the larger ship, HMS Adventure, on a hydrologic survey of Patagonia and Tierra del Fuego, under the overall command of the Australian Navy Captain, Phillip Parker King.

The second voyage of the HMS Beagle, between 1831 and 1832, was joined by naturalist Charles Darwin, on a second trip to South America, and then around the world.

Charles Darwin kept a diary of his experiences, and rewrote this as a book titled “Journal and Remarks,” becoming published in 1839 as “The Voyage of the Beagle.”

It was in “The Voyage of the Beagle” that Darwin developed his theories of evolution through common descent and natural selection.

The third voyage of the HMS Beagle took place between 1837 and 1843, and was a third surveying voyage to Australia, stopping on the way at Tenerife in the Canary Islands; Salvador on the coast of Brazil in Bahia State; and Cape Town in South Africa. I have found all three of these places on the Earth’s ley-lines.

In Australia, the crew surveyed Western Australia, starting in what is now Perth, to the Fitzroy River; then both shores of the Bass Strait in Australia’s southeast corner; then north to the shores of the Arafura Sea, across from Timor.

In 1845, the HMS Beagle was refitted as a Coast Guard watch vessel in Essex, in the navigable waters beyond the Thames Estuary, moored in the middle of the River Roach, until oyster companies and traders petitioned to have it removed in 1851, citing the vessel was obstructing the river and its oyster beds.

The Navy List shows that on May 25th of 1851, the Beagle was renamed “Southend ‘W.V. No. 7′” at Paglesham, and sold in 1870 to be broken-up.

Next the role of famous authors of classic literature.

Here, I am going to “cross-the-pond” to take a look at some examples from the literature of Charles Dickens in Great Britain and Victor Hugo in France to look for the same human and social conditions there that existed in the United States during the same time period through the lenses of these two literary giants and their classics.

First, Charles Dickens.

We are toldCharles Dickens was born in February of 1812, and died in June of 1870, at the relatively young age of 58.

He created some of the world’s best known fictional characters, and is regarded by many is the greatest novelist of the Victorian-era.

In spite of having no formal education after having left school to work in a factory because his father was in Debtors’ Prison, he edited a weekly journal for 20-years; wrote 15 novels; 5 novellas; and hundreds of short stories and articles.

He’s one of many famous and incredibly accomplished people I have come across in my research said to have little or no training in their respective fields, including art and architecture.

Amongst his earliest efforts, “Sketches by Boz ~ Illustrative of Every Day Life and Every Day People” became a collection of short pieces Dickens published between 1833 and 1836 in different newspapers and periodicals.

The work is divided into four sections: “Our Parish,” “Scenes,” “Characters,” and “Tales.”

So…Charles Dickens’ first published work involved illustrations, of visual imagery forming our perceptions of what life was like at that time.

This concept was further evolved when he agreed to a commission in 1836 to supply the description necessary for the “Cockney sporting plates” of illustrator Robert Seymour for a graphic novel, a book made up of comics content, for serial publication.

This was how the “Pickwick Papers” came about, first published in serial form, and called his first literary success.

And who exactly was the target audience for the highly visual and cartoon-like nature of this early work?

Like maybe a younger audience, perhaps?

Dickens certainly wrote a lot of books featuring orphans, like “Oliver Twist,” first published in installments between 1837 and 1839 about a boy who was born and raised in the punitive and abusive workhouse system…

…which was established with the British Parliament’s Poor Law Act of 1834, where there was no cash or material support given, and the only option for those who lived there was hard work and forced labor inside the workhouse in exchange for meager sustenance.

Homes were broken up, belongings sold, and families separated.

Within a few years, Charles Dickens had become an international celebrity, and pioneer of the serial publication of narrative fiction, which became the dominant Victorian mode for novel publication, featuring cliffhanger endings.

Maybe geared for an older, literate and mature, audience?

Dickens travelled a lot as a prominent man of his day in the Victorian Era.

Dickens visited Cairo, Illinois in 1842.

The city of Cairo was located at the southernmost point in Illinois, at the confluence of the Mississippi and Ohio Rivers.

Today, Cairo is empty and deserted, and considered a ghost town.

In its heyday, Cairo was an important city along the steamboat routes and railway lines. 

Southern Illinois where Cairo is located is referred to as “Little Egypt.”

Dickens was said not to have been impressed with Cairo, and that the nightmare city of Eden was based on Cairo in his novel “Martin Chuzzlewit,” which was published in serial form between 1842 and 1844.

Martin Chuzzlewit is the story of the trials and adventures of a young architect of the same name, who ends up in America from England with travelling companion Mark Tapley to seek their fortunes.

In New York, Martin purchased land “sight unseen” on a “major American river,” having been told that the place would need an architect for new building projects.

When they arrived at Eden/Cairo, what they found instead was a swampy, disease-filled settlement, virtually empty of people and buildings as previous settlers had died, and both Martin and Mark got ill from malaria while they were there.

They recover from their illnesses and return to England, where Martin ultimately reconciles with his family.

In the first chapter of Charles Dickens’ novel “Great Expectations,” the marshlands of the Thames Estuary, where the River Thames meets the North Sea, were the setting where a young orphan named Pip was living with his sister, and was grabbed in a graveyard by a convict in leg-irons.

This was a book that was required reading in 9th-Grade English class where I went to high school.

So we had to read it, and then we analyzed it in class for meanings.

Yet perhaps there were hidden meanings being conveyed in this book about marshlands, orphans and convicts that we have not been consciously aware of about the prevalent conditions of the day.

Charles Dickens was buried in Westminster Abbey.

Not bad for a poor kid made good!

Not only that, Dickens and Rudyard Kipling, George Frederic Handel, and Archibald Campbell are hanging out together for eternity!

Next up, Victor Hugo.

He was considered to be one of the greatest and best-known French writers, and was born in 1802 and died in 1885.

“Les Miserables” is one of his most famous works and considered one of the greatest novels of the 19th-century, was first published in 1862.

Translations into English of “Les Miserables” include: “The Miserable Ones;” “The Wretched;” “The Poor Ones;” ” The Wretched Poor;” “The Victims;” and “The Dispossessed.”

I won’t go through the whole novel, which unabridged was one of the longest ever written, but I do want to bring forward relevant information to my findings about it.

The book contains a number of sub-plots, but the main plot of the story is about ex-convict Jean Valjean, who was arrested as a boy for five-years for stealing a loaf of bread for his starving sister and her family, then gets 14 more years as punishment for numerous escape attempts.

After release from prison, he makes some poor choices, but because of kindness shown to him as a result of one of them, he becomes a force for good.

But he is tracked relentlessly throughout the novel by a police inspector who knew him in prison who wants to penalize him for mistakes he made before he changed his life for the better.

Other characters in the novel in include Cosette, a young girl whom Jean Valjean rescued from servitude from a family who were mean and abusive to her.

As the various sub-plots interweave, the backdrop of the story becomes the Paris Uprising of 1832.

“Les Miserables” gave the relatively-unknown 1832 rebellion widespread renown.

We are told the rebellion originated as an anti-monarchist insurrection on June 5th and 6th of 1832 attempt by Parisian Republicans to reverse the establishment in 1830 of the July Monarchy of Louis-Phillipe of the House of Bourbon, who was the last King of France.

The economic and social conditions leading up to the 1832 Paris Uprising were as follows: harvest failures; food shortages; increases in the cost-of-living; and a cholera outbreak which devastated the poor neighborhoods of Paris.

The 1832 Paris Uprising started on June 5th, the day of the funeral of Jean Maximilien Lamarque, a French commander during the Napoleonic War who later became a member of the French Parliament.

Lamarque opposed the restoration of the House of Bourbon and the Ancien Regime of France.

Ancien?

Ancient?

There are many references in our historical narrative to “ancient” that go back only centuries as opposed to millenia, which better fits the definition of ancient as pertaining to the far distant past.

An example of this is St. Augustine, Florida, which has a nickname of the “Ancient City,” which is interesting because the year of its founding was said to be 1565, which is not a year considered to be ancient history studies.

By the way, St. Augustine was the first Catholic parish in what became the United States.

The Jesuits arrived there in 1566, and the Franciscans arrived there in 1573 to establish missions.

Back in Paris, the course of the 1832 Paris Uprising was that after Lamarque’s funeral, the Republican conspirators provoked riots with an army they had organized of Parisian workers and local youth, and refugees from Poland, Germany, and Italy, and they took control of the eastern and central districts of Paris for a short period of time.

They made the Porte Saint-Martin their stronghold, a 60-foot, or 18-meter, high triumphal arch made of limestone and marble, said to have been built in 1674.

They built barricades around the narrow streets in the surrounding area.

In the novel “Les Miserables,” the character of Gavroche was a young street urchin who takes part in the barricades… and was killed while collecting bullets from dead National Guardsmen.

The French Army and National Guard ultimately put down the uprising on June 6th, the day after it started.

I believe the literature of Charles Dickens and Victor Hugo, and other famous authors, were being used both as programming devices with which to shape our collective minds with the new historical narrative, and at the same time telling us what was going on with regards to replacing the Old World Order with the New World Order, and documenting, among other things, the conditions of poverty and the negative societal impacts on children that was rampant across continents during the 19th-century.

Another significant but obscure historical event to note in Paris was the Paris Commune.

The short-lived Paris Commune was formally established on March 28th of 1871, and was a radical socialist, anti-religious and revolutionary government that ruled Paris until it was suppressed by the French army in May of 1871.

What happened in the Paris Commune was closely followed by London resident Karl Marx, who published a pamphlet in June of 1871, called “The Civil War in France,” about the significance of the struggle of the Communards in the Paris Commune.

By the time the Paris Commune was established in 1871, Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels had already published their pamphlet “The Communist Manifesto” in 1848.

The Communinism espoused by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels took root in Europe in the violent Russian Revolution of 1917 that marked the end of the Romanov Dynasty and Russian Imperial rule.

Led by leftist revolutionary Vladimir Lenin, the Bolsheviks seized power and would become the Communist Party of the Soviet Union.

I have encountered the following three graphics displaying quotes of powerful Freemason Albert Pike about World Wars I, II, and III that were said to have been contained a letter written in 1871 by Albert Pike to Giuseppe Mazzini, the second leader of the Bavarian Order of the Illuminati after Adam Weishaupt’s death in 1830.

This letter was written in the same year that Karl Marx published his pamphlet about the Communards in France.

The following three quotes appear to be the military blueprint for three world wars.

For the First World War, Pike was talking about the Illuminati overthrowing the Czars and making Russia a fortress of atheistic communism.

For the Second World War, Pike talked about taking advantage of the differences between Fascists and Zionists; destroying Nazism; Zionism creating Israel, and Communism being strong enough to control Christendom.

And for the Third World War, Pike talked about the Illuminati taking advantage of the differences between Zionist and Islamic leaders so they mutually destroy each other.

All of this sounds very familiar to what we know in the present-day!

Could all of these conflicts, at least since the American Civil War, and other wars of the 19th-century, been planned, even scripted out and staged, for the Controller’s desired outcome, which was world control and domination?

The time-frame of the American Civil War is a good lead-in to bring in the many hats of Frederick Law Olmsted wore in the shaping of our new historical narrative.

He is called the “Father of Landscape Architecture.”

His biography says he created the profession of landscape architecture by working in a dry goods store; taking a year-long voyage in the China trade; and by studying surveying, engineering, chemistry, and scientific farming.

Though I found references saying he did attend Yale College, we are also told he was about to enter Yale College in 1837, but weakened eyes from sumac poisoning prevented him the usual course of study. 

At any rate, he apparently did not graduate from college in any course of study.

We are told he started out with a career in journalism, travelling to England in 1850 to visit public gardens there, including Birkenhead Park, a park said to have been designed by Joseph Paxton which opened in April of 1847 and said to be the first publicly funded civic park in the world.

 Joseph Paxton, a gardener and greenhouse builder by trade…

…was also said to have been commissioned by Baron Mayer de Rothschild in 1850 to design the Mentmore Towers in Buckinghamshire…

…and Joseph Paxton was also given credit in our historical narrative for designing the Crystal Palace to house the 1851 Great Exhibition in London in Hyde Park.

The Crystal Palace was described as a massive glass house that was 1,848-feet, or 563-meters, long, by 454-feet, or 138-meters, wide, and constructed from cast-iron frame components and glass. 

After his trip, Olmsted published “Walks and Talks of an American Farmer” in England in 1852, where he recorded the sights, sounds and mental impressions of rural England from his visit.

Frederick Law Olmsted apparently was also commissioned by the New York Daily Times to start on an extensive research journey in the American South and Texas between 1852 and 1857.

The dispatches he sent to the Times were collected into three books, and considered vivid, first-person accounts of the antebellum South: “A Journey in the Seaboard Slave States,” first published in 1856…

…”A Journey through Texas,” published in 1857…

…and “A Journey in the Back Country in the Winter of 1853 – 1854,” published in 1860.

All three of these books were published in one book, called “Journeys and Explorations in the Cotton Kingdom,” in 1861 during the first six months of the American Civil War at the suggestion of his English publisher.

One more thing, before I move on to some other things Frederick Law Olmsted was known for, is that he provided financial support for, and sometimes wrote for, “The Nation,” a progressive magazine that is the oldest continuously published weekly magazine in the United States, having been founded on July 6th of 1865, three-months after the end of the American Civil War.

The next thing I want to bring up about Frederick Law Olmsted is that he was the first executive secretary of the United States Sanitary Commission.

We are told the United States Sanitary Commission was a private relief agency with the mission of supporting the sick and wounded soldiers of the Union Army, and was created by federal legislation on June 18th of 1861.

We are told the United States Sanitary Commission held what were called “Sanitary Fairs” as fundraising events to support their mission of providing support to sick and wounded Union soldiers.

“Sanitary Fairs” had everything, including majestic “temporary” buildings said to have been built for the fairs, to be torn down after, and while not as elaborate as the big expositions such as in Chicago, they were still something in and of themselves.

The fairs were expositions and bazaars organized and run by civilians to raise funds for the United States Sanitary Commission for food, clothing, bandages, and other supplies for both military hospitals and soldiers in the field.

Sanitary Fairs typically held large-scale exhibitions, and the 1863 Northwestern Soldiers Fair in Chicago featured a “Curiosity Shop” of war souvenirs, with weapons and other artifacts said to have been designed to contrast the barbaric southern enemy with the civilized North.

These were the Civil War Battles said to have taken place during the same period of time as the Northwestern Soldiers Fair:

The Great Central Fair in June of 1864 took place in the entirety of Philadelphia’s Logan Square.

The structures for the Great Central Fair were said to have been built in 40-working days by volunteer craftsmen…all 6 of them?…in this could-be-staged photograph…

…because when it was completed, the 200,000-square-foot, or 18,581-square-meter complex looked like this, featuring Union Avenue, a 540-foot-, or 165-meter-, long Central Hall…

…over flag-festooned, soaring gothic arches.

Come to think of it, both of these photographs look staged, with the few people shown in both photos facing the photographer.

And are the dimensions of the interior the same?

And even if they are photos of the same structure, with the one photo on the right looking wider and higher to me than the photo on the left, could the photo on the left be a “de-construction” photo instead of a “construction” photo as it was said to be?

Said to have raised more than $1,000,000 for the United States Sanitary Commission in its 3-week run from June 7th to June 28th of 1864, in its final form, the fair was said to have around 100 departments, including Arms and Trophies; children’s clothing; homemade fancy articles; Fine Arts; brewers; wax fruit; trimmings and lingerie; umbrellas and canes; curiosities and relics; a steam glass blower; an Art Gallery; and a horticulture exhibit.

These were the Civil War Battles said to have taken place during the same period of time as the Great Central Fair:

The first Metropolitan Fair, planned for March but ended up being held in New York between April 4th and April 23rd of 1864, also raised over $1,000,000 for the cause, and was the largest Sanitary Fair ever.

Metropolitan Fair-goers could purchase souvenirs like “The Book of Bubbles…”

…a book of nonsense verses with illustrations authored by members of the United States Sanitary Commission.

There was a second Sanitary Fair held in Chicago, this one called the Great Northwestern Sanitary Fair, from October 27th to November 7th of 1865.

It was the last Sanitary Fair of the Civil War, and was said to have raised $270,000 for sick and wounded soldiers.

Speakers at this last Sanitary Fair included Generals Ulysses S. Grant, William T. Sherman, and Joseph Hooker.

Exhibits at the fair were said to include: the bell from Jefferson Davis’ plantation (he was the President of the Confederacy); the clothing both men were wearing at the 1858 Abraham Lincoln – Stephen Douglas debates about slavery and the extension of slavery into new territories; and General Grant’s horse was raffled off as a fundraiser.

This Great Northwestern Fair in Chicago took place after the assassination of President Abraham Lincoln, which happened on April 15th of 1865.

This medallion commemorating Lincoln and the Great Northwestern Sanitary Fair was minted for the 1865 fair.

By the time of the Great Northwestern Sanitary Fair in late 1865, the American Civil War had already officially ended on April 9th of 1865 with the meeting of of the Union General Ulysses S. Grant and the Confederate General Robert E. Lee at the Appomattox Courthouse in Virginia, which took place a week before President Lincoln’s assassination.

The template for the Sanitary Fairs was the same as that for the World Fairs, Expositions and Exhibitions – infrastructure said to have been built specifically for these events out of “temporary” materials, and then, for the most part, demolished at some point afterwards, like the Trans-Mississippi International Exposition, held in 1898 in Omaha, Nebraska, from June to November of that year, one of countless examples of this story.

The planner of the United States Sanitary Commission, and its only president from 1861 to 1878, was Henry Whitney Bellows, an American Unitarian Clergyman.

Another founder of the United States Sanitary Commission was George Templeton Strong, a New York lawyer and diarist.

His 2,250-page diary was said to have been found in the 1930s, and contained his striking personal account of life in the 19th-century, between 1835 and 1875, including the events of the American Civil War between 1861 and 1865.

Other members for the standing committee of the United States Sanitary Commission, with its main members throughout the Civil War, also consisted of surgeons Dr. William H. Van Buren, Dr. Cornelius R. Agnew, and Dr. Wolcott Gibbs.

Of the men on the standing committee for the United States Sanitary Commission, most were founding members of the Union League Club as well- Henry Whitney Bellows, Frederick Law Olmsted, George Templeton Strong, and Dr. Wolcott Gibbs.

It was a private social club for wealthy men that opened in New York City in 1863 for pro-Union men could come together “to cultivate a profound national devotion” and “strengthen a love and respect for the Union.”

It became the most exclusive mens’ club in Manhattan, and perhaps in the nation.

This location for the Union League Club was said to have been built on the northeast corner of 5th Avenue and 39th Street between 1879 and 1881, and this building burned down in January of 1932.

Henry Whitney Bellows was also involved in the organizing of the Century Association in New York City, founded in 1847 and incorporated in 1857.

The Century Association was a private social, arts and dining club, and named after the first 100 people proposed as members that were important influencers of the day across many fields of endeavor, including but not limited to architecture, art, politics, and members from wealthy elite families.

The Century Association Building at 42 E.15th Street was in-use by the association starting in 1857, and which served as one of the headquarters of the United States Sanitary Commission.

Also from around the same time-frame of the American Civil War, I am seeing the strong presence of Freemasons giving us the “new” history of the “Old West” in our new historical narrative.

I am going to take a quick look first at what I call the John Wayne version of history, that false historical narrative that we have been indoctrinated in from cradle-to-grave, and I am going to start by looking at the history of how we came to know about the “Wild West.”

The first thing that came along were western-themed dime novels that became available starting in 1860, which would have been right before the beginning of the American Civil War in our historical narrative.

The dime novels were written on pulp paper – from which the term “Pulp Fiction was derived – and contained pictures, and were introduced by the publishing house of Beadle and Company, operated primarily by brothers Irwin & Erastus Beadle, which provided a cheaper form of reading material than what existed previously, and were targeted towards young boys with stories about wild west adventures, and which were the largest demographic of dime novel western readers.

Erastus Beadle was listed as a member in this book about the Otsego Lodge No. 138 in Cooperstown, New York.

Next in our new timeline came the Old Wild West Shows, which were described as travelling vaudeville shows in the United States and Europe that took place between 1870 and 1920.

Vaudeville originated in France in the 19th-century, we are told, as a theatrical genre of variety entertainment, and became one of the most popular forms of entertainment in North America for several decades.

While not in every case, it was typically characterized by travelling companies touring through cities and towns.

Enter U. S. Army scout and guide William F. “Buffalo Bill” Cody.

He became internationally known for his touring show, called “Buffalo Bill’s Wild West,” which travelled across the United States, Great Britain, and Continental Europe, which he founded in 1883.

All together, Buffalo Bill’s Wild West Show toured Europe eight times between 1887 and 1906.

In 1893, the name was changed to “Buffalo Bill’s Wild West and Congress of Rough Riders of the World” from horse-cultures the world over.

I even saw a book about him called “Presenting Buffalo Bill – the Man who Invented the Wild West.”

And was William F. “Buffalo Bill” Cody a freemason?

I didn’t have to look far at all to find Buffalo Bill’s connection to freemasonry – it was right out there in the open!

The first commercially-successful western film is considered to be Edwin S. Porter’s silent western “The Great Train Robbery” which was filmed in New York and New Jersey for the “Edison Manufacturing Company, and first released Vaudeville houses in 1903, and it set the pattern for many more westerns to come.

The first silent western film was an unprecedented commercial success, and the close-up of the actor Justus Barnes emptying his gun directly into the camera became iconic in American Culture.

I was able to find out that famous inventor Thomas Edison was also a Freemason.

The first feature-length motion picture to be entirely filmed in Hollywood was Cecil B. DeMille’s 1914 directorial debut, a silent western film called “The Squaw Man.”

Movie director Cecil B. DeMille was a Freemason too…

…as were famous movie actors best- known for their western movies, John Wayne and Roy Rogers, and they were Shriners, an organization comprised of 32nd- and 33rd-degree freemasons, the highest degrees of western Scottish Rite freemasonry.

As a result of all this, and much more, generations of children and adults have long-been programmed to believe that Hollywood westerns represent real history.

I would like to bring forward the following points of information for my ending thoughts on this post.

The bedrock foundations of our modern scientific paradigm, referring to the solid rock foundations that our scientific worldview is founded upon and the only one that has been taught to generations of students in our educational systems and not to be questioned, can be summarized follows.

This academically-approved and-enshrined paradigm is opposite to the growing belief among many people, myself included, that the Earth realm exists on a “plane,” and interestingly only one-letter different from “planet” in English, which is a flat horizontal surface that extends indefinitely.

But mainstream thinking is quick to debunk this belief, citing “science” as proof for why the Earth is a globe, which sounds very much like “circular reasoning.”

Circular reasoning occurs when the evidence offered to support a claim is just a repetition of the claim itself.

We have not been allowed to question the narrative or the science and the application of critical thinking has been severely discouraged throughout our world.

Among many other things, both the Rockefeller and Carnegie Foundations have been highly involved in the American Educational System.

Even as early as 1914, the National Education Association expressed alarm at the activity of the Carnegie and Rockefeller Foundations, and their efforts to control the policies of State educational institutions, and everything related to the educational system.

The Rockefellers and Carnegies of the world sought to create a system that would provide practical training and education for workers in the industrial sector, and did not want to promote critical thinking.

Anyone who questions the narrative gets labelled a conspiracy theorist…

…when those behind the New World Order Agenda are the actual conspirators!

In our historical narrative, the “Royal Society of London” was established by a Royal Charter issued by King Charles II in 1660, and is the oldest continuously existing scientific academy in the world.

The meaning of the Royal Society’s motto “Nullius in Verba” means “Take nobody’s word for it.”

While on one-hand, “take nobody’s word for it” could certainly mean testing through scientific experimentation, on the other hand another meaning would be not to blindly accept what we are told, and to encourage people to do their own research and think for themselves.

With regards to the giants of science like Sir Isaac Newton, while it is not known with absolute certainty if Sir Isaac Newton was an initiated Freemason, Newton was President of the Royal Society when the Premier Grand Lodge of London was established in 1717, when he was 74.

It is known that Elias Ashmole was a Freemason, and he was one of the founding fellows of the Royal Society in November of 1660.

Elias Ashmole, an English antiquary and student of Alchemy, was the first English Speculative Freemason initiated in 1646.

And it is no secret within Modern Freemasonry that it is “speculative,” meaning based on conjecture rather than knowledge, as opposed to “operative,” meaning those who actually worked with stone.

In conclusion, there is no doubt in my mind that these Speculative Freemasons stole the identity and legacy of the original Operative Moorish Masons, and instead used whatever of the original knowledge they possessed for occulting the New World, and, like the Jesuits, the highest degrees of Freemasonry have also been major players behind the creation of the new narrative and paradigm.

I am going to be bringing forward research I have done in the past, as well as new research, in this series on the Great Lakes region of North America.

So far I have looked in-depth at cities and places all around the shores of Lake Superior and Lake Michigan, paying particular attention to lighthouses; railroad and streetcar history; waterfalls, wetlands and dunes; interstates and highways; major corporate players; mines and mining; labor relations; and many other things.

I am going to be taking a close look at the Michigan-side of Lake Huron in the third-part of this series, and where I expect to see more of exactly the same kinds of things seen thus far.

Lake Huron is connected to Lake Michigan by the Straits of Mackinac; to Lake Superior by the St. Mary’s River; and to Lake Erie via the St. Clair River, Lake St. Clair and the Detroit River, where the city of Detroit is located on land situated between Lake Huron and Lake Erie the two lakes.

It is shared on the north and east by the Province of Ontario and to the south and west by the State of Michigan.

We are told that Lake Huron is considered to be hydrologically a single lake with Lake Michigan because the flow of water between the Straits of Mackinac keeps their water levels in overall equilibrium.

Lake Huron has the greatest shoreline length of the Great Lakes, at 3,827-miles, or 6,157-kilometers, including 30,000 islands, and has not experienced heavy industrialization like the other Great Lakes.

Georgian Bay is a large bay of Lake Huron, and sometimes called “the sixth Great Lake” because of it’s size and distinctiveness.

It is 5,792-square-miles, or 15,000-square-kilometers, in size.

The name of the lake is derived from the indigenous Huron people of the region, also known as the Wyandot.

Their traditional lands extended to Lake Huron’s Georgian Bay and Lake Simcoe in Ontario.

We are told a large tract of Huron land in Canada was signed over to the British Crown in 1850, by the local chiefs, as part of the Robinson-Huron Treaty.

In return, the Crown pledged to pay an annuity to these First Nations people, originally set at $1.60 per treaty member, and it was last increased to $4 in 1874, where it is fixed to this day.

Reservations were also established as a result of this Treaty.

This is what we are told about the Huron or Wyandot people.

Their language is Iroquoian, with this map reflecting where Iroquoian was spoken.

Almost all of the surviving Iroquoian languages are severely endangered, with some languages only having a few elderly speakers remaining.

The two languages with the most speakers are Mohawk and Cherokee, though spoken by less than 10% of their respective people.

Thus far in the series, I have found that there was a pervasive Jesuit presence all over Lake Superior and Lake Michigan in our historical narrative.

When I was looking for information on the Huron people, I found out that they were mentioned in the chronicles of Jesuit Missions in New France from 1632 to 1673 called “The Jesuit Relations,” which were said to be reports from missionaries in the field to update their superiors on their progress in converting them.

This report was said to be from Gabriel Sagard in 1632 with regards to the country of the Hurons.

Sagard was a French Franciscan lay brother known for being one of the earliest missionaries to New France.

Along with the Jesuits, the Franciscans were quite active in the Great Lakes region early on in our historical narrative.

This passage from 1639 in the “Jesuit Relations” describes the Hurons as robust and tall, and wearing beaver skins, necklaces and bracelets of porcelain, and grease their hair and paint their faces.

It is my conclusion that publications like these and many others I have come across in my research were setting the stage in seeding the new historical narrative into our consciousness by those responsible for the hijack of the original positive civilization that built all of Earth’s infrastructure that the indigenous people were primitive tribal hunter-gatherers instead of being the actual builders of a highly advanced, ancient worldwide civilization.

Since this is not in our historical narrative, we don’t even question what we are told about it being built by other cultures or civilizations. 

Moorish Masons of the Ancient Ones were the Master Builders of Civilization, and their handiwork is all over the planet, from ancient to modern.

All of their Moorish Science symbolism was taken over by other groups claiming to be them, falsely claiming their works, or piggy-backing on their legacy. 

Or given a darker meaning by association with certain things that were not the original meaning.

For example, this is the Great Seal of the Moors on the left, compared to the symbol on the back of the U. S. Federal Reserve Note, commonly known as the One-dollar-bill.

You can see that their symbols were co-opted from the original, and have come to have certain negative associations, like associating the pyramid with the eye on top of it with Big Brother, the New World Order, and the Illuminati instead of the Pineal Gland, also known as the third-eye, and our direct connection with Our Creator.

Islam in its original form is about applied Sacred Geometry and Universal Laws, and was nothing like the weaponized form of radical Islam we see today that is playing a divisive and destructive role in the world that is not in accordance with Humanity’s best interests.

I also believe that the Moors and the Tribes of Israel were one and the same, and that this identity was also hijacked as well by those responsible for the hijack of the original positive civilization.

Many years ago, before I started doing my own research in 2018, and when I was learning about these kinds of things, I watched a Megalithomania presentation by Christine Rhone on “Twelve Tribe Nations – Sacred Number and the Golden Age.”

She co-authored a book with John Michel of the same name.

Among other things, they followed the Apollo – St. Michael alignment across countries and continents all the way to Jerusalem in Israel.  

They discuss records and traditions of whole nations being divided into twelve tribes and twelve regions, each corresponding to one of the twelve signs of the zodiac and to one of the twelve months of the year.  All formed around a sacred center.

It stands to reason that these people would apply the same concepts of Harmony, Balance, Beauty, Sacred Geometry, and aligning heaven and earth, to building their communities and themselves that they applied to building all of the infrastructure of the Earth.

There is an 8-pointed star visible in this graphic of the twelve Tribes of Israel as they correspond to the twelve constellations of the Zodiac.

I have found this same 8-pointed star symbol all over the Earth.

It can be found in the Mabel Tainter Memorial Theater in Menomonie, Wisconsin on the top left; in the Mughal Garden Complex in Lahore Pakistan, on the top right; on the Moorish Kiosk in Mexico City on the bottom left; and on the cover of this book about the First Anglo-Afghan War on the bottom right, among countless examples I have found all over the Earth.

The Mabel Tainter Memorial Theater here in Menomonie, Wisconsin, said to have been built in 1889 in the Richardsonian Romanesque architectural-style to honor the late daughter of Lumber Baron Captain and Mrs. Andrew Tainter…

…looks on the inside like the acknowledged Moorish architecture of the Alhambra in Grenada, Spain.

Yet, again, we are taught that the indigenous people of this land were uncivilized tribes of hunter-gatherers.

This painting is by an artist named Paul Kane, who died in 1871, called “Fishing by Torchlight,” of the Menominee spearfishing at night by torchlight and canoe on the Fox River.

The traditional land of the Menominee People was on the western shore of the Lake Michigan, particularly around the Green Bay region.

This region was also a location where the Jesuits set up shop early on as well.

What I am also seeing from tracking leylines all over the Earth, looking from place-to-place at cities in alignment over long-distances, are the consistent presence of swamps, marshes, bogs, deserts, dunes, and places where it appears land masses sheared-off and submerged under the bodies of water we see today.

My working hypothesis is that the circuit board of the Earth’s original energy grid system was deliberately blown out by one or more forms of directed frequency or energy of some kind into different places on the Earth’s energy grid, causing the surface of the Earth to undulate and buckle.

I believe the beings behind the cataclysm were shovel-ready to dig enough of the original infrastructure out of the ruined Earth so they could be used and civilization restarted, which I think started in earnest in the mid-to-late 1700s and early 1800s.

Then they only used the pre-existing infrastructure until they found replacement fuel sources that could be monetized and controlled by them for what had originally been a free-energy power grid and transportation system worldwide, and when what remained of the original infrastructure was no longer useful to them, or inconvenient to their agenda, they had it destroyed, discontinued, or abandoned, typically in a very short time after it was said to have been constructed.

Like everything else we have been told to explain what is in existence in our world, I really don’t believe lighthouses were built to guide ships by whom they were said to have built them when they were said to have been built.

What I am seeing is that they ended up next to the edge of water when the land around them sank, and were repurposed into navigational aids in the New World to guide ships through the now sunken and broken landmasses in the surrounding waters.

I have come to believe “lighthouses” were literally “houses for light” for the purpose of precisely distributing light energy generated by this gigantic integrated system that existed all over the Earth that was in perfect alignment with everything on Earth and in heaven.

So two of the many points of comparison between the Great Lakes in this series will include lighthouses, and the bathymetry of the lakes, which is the measurement of the depth of water in the lakes.

First, the lighthouses of Lake Huron.

From what I could find out in a search, the Great Lakes have been home to approximately 379 lighthouses, with 200 of them still active, and that Lake Huron has seventy lighthouses around its shores.

There are approximately 88 lighthouses along the shore of Lake Michigan, which has more lighthouses than any of the Great Lakes.

There are approximately 78 lighthouses around Lake Superior, with 42 of them being in Michigan.

One of Michigan’s nicknames is “The Lighthouse State,” as it has more lighthouses than any other state.

Next, the bathymetry of the Straits of Mackinac and Lake Huron.

The bathymetry of the Straits of Mackinac and the Mackinac Channel in between Lake Michigan and Lake Huron shows the depth of the water to be quite shallow, ranging in depth from primarily 0- to 50-meters, or 164-feet.

The Straits of Mackinac are described as a submerged valley in the legend in the lower right-hand corner, and the Mackinac channel as a now-submerged, incised river channel that lies below the straits area.

As mentioned in the top paragraph, these features have been ascribed to a significant lowering of the water levels in Lake Michigan and Lake Huron that occurred 10,000-years-ago.

Interesting to note the S-shaped bends of the Mackinac Channel, and particularly the one going around Mackinac Island in Lake Huron.

I found the same thing in the Au Train-Whitefish Channel of the Green Bay region of Lake Michigan.

The Au Train – Whitefish Channel is a large, submerged channel beginning in Little Bay de Noc and extends across the floor of Green Bay and around Washington Island.

Washington Island is one of a string of islands which are an outcropping of the Niagara Escarpment that stretch across the entrance of Green Bay from the Door Peninsula in Wisconsin to the Garden Peninsula in Michigan.

The strait separating Washington Island and the Door Peninsula is a treacherous waterway littered with shipwrecks.

I will be talking a great deal more about the Niagara Escarpment where it enters Lake Huron on the Ontario-side as it is the landform between Lake Huron and Georgian Bay.

The Niagara Escarpment runs predominantly east-to-west, from New York, through Ontario, Michigan, Illinois, and Wisconsin, with a nice, half-circle shape, attached to a straight-line, when drawn on a map.

Similar to the Mackinac Channel, I found an explanation given for the continuation of the underwater channel that when Lake Michigan was in a low stage, the Au Train Whitefish River cut a deep channel in the basin of Lake Michigan.

But what if these channels are actually submerged man-made waterways, and part of a sophisticated canal and hydrological system?

S-shaped bends are found in what are called rivers all over the surface of the Earth.

These are just a few of countless examples.

As we are seeing here in the bathymetry of Lake Michigan and Lake Huron, these same S-shapes are found underwater.

The same can be said for the Gulf Stream in the Atlantic Ocean.

I found on the official USGS.gov website that “The Gulf Stream can be thought of as a “river” in the ocean.”

For example in this slide, there is a graphic showing the Gulf Stream with snaky, S-shaped bends on the top left, and on the bottom right, a photograph of the Gulf Stream, looking like a river in the ocean.

Another examples of this same finding is seen a photo taken in the waters of the Great Barrier Reef, looking very much like a river in shallow water.

As described in Viktor Schauberger’s work on the hydrodynamics of S-shapes, the motions of this water flow energizes water, and I would surmise it is highly likely that is what these S-shaped water courses were doing in the original energy grid system.

Schauberger was a pioneer in the field of water and energy research in the early 20th-century, and was working on developing a device for the production of living water, water with an enhanced structure and necessary minerals.

Conversely, he believed that modern industries destroy healthy water, including the processes of municipal water treatment plants, which decompose healthy water.

With regards to the bathymetry of Lake Huron and its Georgian Bay, the water- depth ranges from 0 to 100-meters, or 328-feet, for the most part throughout both of them, with the deepest part of Lake Huron being in the middle at 229-meters, or 750-feet in depth where the “x” is circled in red.

The average depth of what constitutes Lake Huron is 59-meters, or 195-feet.

The bathymetry of Lake Michigan shows shallows around the edges ranging from 0 to around 100-meters, or 0- to around 328-feet, with an uneven lake-floor towards the middle ranging in depth from 100-meters, to its deepest point at 282-meters, or 925-feet, which is marked by the “x” circled in red.

The average depth of Lake Michigan is 85-meters, or 279-feet.

The bathymetry of Lake Superior also shows its shallows around the edges, which range from 0 to around 100-meters, or 0- to around 328-feet, with an uneven lake-floor ranging in depth from 100-meters, to its deepest point at 406-meters, or 1,333-feet.

Lake Superior’s average depth is 147-meters, or 483-feet.

The Great Lakes Region is notorious for its shipwrecks, with an estimated somewhere between 6,000 to 10,000 ships and somewhere around 30,000 lives lost.

The reasons given for the high number of shipwrecks consist of things like severe weather, heavy cargo and navigational challenges.

There are estimates of over 1,000 shipwrecks in Lake Huron…

…with reasons given of storms, islands, and shallow areas.

The Thunder Bay National Marine Sanctuary alone, also known as “Shipwreck Alley,” is estimated to have 116 known shipwrecks.

I am going to start at St. Ignace, which is where I ended the Lake Michigan part of this series as it is on Lake Huron on the other end of the Mackinac Bridge from Mackinaw City, where Lakes Michigan and Huron meet.

Mackinaw City is at the tip of the Lower Peninsula of Michigan, and St. Ignace is at the bottom of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, with the Straits of Mackinac separating the two places.

There are a few things I am going to bring forward from the last post about St. Ignace, and a few things I am going to add here.

The Straits of Mackinac are crossed by the Mackinac Bridge, which was said to have first opened in 1957.

The Mackinac Bridge carries Interstate 75 across the longest suspension bridge between anchorages in the western hemisphere between Mackinaw City at its southern end, and St. Ignace at the northern end.

The northern terminus of Interstate-75 is Sault Ste. Marie in Michigan north of St. Ignace, and the southern terminus is in Miami, Florida, and it crosses through a whole lot of major cities in-between on its 1,786-mile, or 2,875-kilometer, length, including, but not limited to Saginaw, Bay City, and Detroit adjacent to Lake Huron in Michigan; Toledo, Dayton, and Cincinnati in Ohio, Richmond in Virginia, and Atlanta in Georgia.

The European history of St. Ignace began when Father Jacques Marquette founded the St. Ignace Mission here in 1671, and named it after the founder of the Jesuits, St. Ignatius of Loyola.

In our historical narrative, Pope Paul III issued a papal bull forming the Jesuit Order in 1540, under the leadership of Ignatius of Loyola, a Basque nobleman from the Pyrenees in Northern Spain.

The Jesuit Order included a special vow of obedience to the Pope in matters of mission direction and assignment.

Whoever the Jesuits and the Freemasons were are at the top of my list of suspects for who was primarily responsible for giving us our new, fabricated historical narrative.

Two years later, in the year of 1542, we are told Pope Paul III established the Holy Office, also known as the Inquisition and the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith.

The Straits State Park on the northern shores of the Straits of Mackinac is a popular camping spot.

It is also the location of the Father Marquette National Memorial, which was established in December of 1975 to pay tribute to his life and work.

The Father Marquette Museum building at the Memorial was destroyed by fire in March of 2000.

The main building today houses exhibits, and there is a fifteen-station interpretative trail.

One of the popular places to visit in St. Ignace is Castle Rock.

It is described as a limestone stack that rises 196-feet, or 59-meters, above Lake Huron, and we are told was created by the erosion of surrounding land from the melting of Ice Age glaciers after the Wisconsinan Glaciation, called the most recent glacial period of the North American ice-sheet complex that peaked more than 20,000-years ago.

It is three-miles north of St. Ignace on I-75.

Just a short-distance further up the road from Castle Rock is another limestone formation called “Rabbit’s Back.”

St. Anthony’s Rock is found in the town of St. Ignace, between the Fort de Buade Museum and the Wawatam Lighthouse.

St. Anthony’s Rock is yet another one of what is called a limestone seastack and tourist attraction in St. Ignace.

Limestone was a common building material in the ancient world, and used in constructions like the Pyramids of Giza…

…and the Western Wall, also known as the “Wailing Wall,” an ancient limestone wall in the old city of Jerusalem.

In other places in the early history of the United States, we are told that a rock ledge became the landing place for riverboats and wagon trains starting in 1833, on the southside of the Missouri River at what became Kansas City, Missouri.

And all of these strata of limestone underneath the surface were identified where this particular rock ledge was located.

Keep all this in mind as we go around the shores of Lake Huron and its Georgian Bay in this post.

Next, the Wawatam Lighthouse on the other side of St. Anthony’s Rock in St. Ignace is located at the far end of the former railroad ferry pier used by the Chief Wawatam railroad and passenger ferry in the marina.

I would like to mention more about the Wawatam Lighthouse and the Chief Wawatam ferry here.

Firstly, what we are told about the Wawatam Lighthouse in our historical narrative is that it was built as an architectural folly for the Michigan Department of Transportation (DOT) in 1998 as a non-functional lighthouse as an element of the tourist heritage of the state for the Welcome Center on I-75 at Monroe, Michigan, but that in 2004, the Michigan DOT slated the lighthouse for demolition when it was deemed obsolete when the Welcome Center was renovated.

The state government agreed to move the structure to another location when concerns were raised about this decision, and when St. Ignace officials learned of this, they applied for it, and got it moved there.

Anyway, that is what they tell us about it, but I have my doubts.

Secondly I would like to mention the Chief Wawatam railroad ferry.

It was a coal-fired steel ship primarily based in St. Ignace that operated year-round in the Straits of Mackinac between St. Ignace and Mackinaw City between 1911 and 1984 serving in its storied career as a train and passenger ferry and as an icebreaker.

The first part of the Chief Wawatam’s history is that it’s main purpose was as a train service to carry railroad cars, though it also operated as a passenger and car ferry over the years.

It served as an icebreaker during the winter months until that function was replaced by the U. S. Coast Guard Icebreaker Mackinaw in 1944, and that the ship’s passenger service also dropped off after World War II.

Passenger service ended after the Mackinac Bridge opened in 1957, and it was used exclusively as a railroad ferry until 1985.

The Chief Wawatam railroad ferry was the only railroad connection between the two peninsulas of Michigan, and in the 1950s, transported 30,000 railroad cars per year across the Straits of Mackinac.

It started servicing the Mackinac Transportation Company in 1911, a joint-venture of the Duluth, South Shore, and Atlantic Railway; the Grand Rapids and Indiana Railway; and the Michigan Central Railroad since all three railroads crossed back and forth at the Straits of Mackinac.

The Duluth, South Shore, and Atlantic Railway was American railroad that served the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, and the Lake Superior shoreline of Wisconsin, providing service from Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan, and St. Ignace, Michigan, westward through Marquette to Superior, Wisconsin, and Duluth, Minnesota.

The first of this railway line started operating in 1855; then came under the control of the Canadian Pacific Railway in 1888; and was in operation all together from 1855 to 1960 as an independently-named subsidirary of the Canadian Pacific Railway.

What’s left of it was merged to the Soo Line in 1961.

Parts of the Duluth, South Shore, and Atlantic Railway were converted to rail-trails, like the St. Ignace – Trout Lake Trail, which is 26-miles, or 42-kilometers, of multi-use recreational trail in its former railbed.

With regards to railroad lines to Mackinaw City on the other side of the Straits of Mackinac, we are told that the Michigan Central Railroad came to Mackinaw City from Detroit in 1881, and the Grand Rapids and Indiana Railroad in 1882 connecting Mackinaw City to Traverse City; Grand Rapids; and Fort Wayne in Indiana.

The former rail-lines have been repurposed into Rail-trails, like the North West State Trail from Petoskey…

…the North Central State Trail from Gaylord…

…and the North Eastern State Trail from Alpena.

There were two historic roundhouses in Mackinaw City, one for each of the railroads serving the area.

They were both demolished after the rail-lines leading to Mackinaw City were scrapped sometime in the 1980s.

The location of the former Michigan Central Roundhouse is now a Burger King, and the Grand Rapids and Indiana Railroad is a parking lot west of the Mackinac Bridge; and the former railyards a shopping mall.

Like the lighthouses, I believe that all the rail infrastructure was part of the original energy grid, and as I’ve said many times, I believe the energy grid was deliberately destroyed, and that it’s destruction created everything we see in the world today that we are told is natural, including, but not limited to, the Great Lakes, and I will continue to show you evidence for why I believe this is the case throughout this post and this series on the Great Lakes.

I think the Controllers’ removed the rail-lines that were original part of the energy grid when they were no longer needed for mining and/or their agenda, and they only kept what was needed for freight, with keeping some for public transportation where it was critical infrastructure and scaled passenger service way-back from what it once was.

They were instead turned into interstates, highways, roadways, and recreational rail-trails. used for harvesting our energy for the benefit of a few from what was the original free-energy grid system for the benefit of all.

Now I am going to turn my attention to what’s found in the Straits of Mackinac and Lake Huron to the east of the Mackinac Bridge, Starting with Mackinac Island.

This is what we are told about Mackinac Island.

It was long home to an Ottawa settlement and previous indigenous civilizations before European colonization in the 1600s, and became a strategic center of the fur trade in the Great Lakes region.

We are told that the British built a limestone fort known as Fort Mackinac during the American Revolutionary War in 1781 to control the Straits of Mackinac, and by extension, the Great Lakes’ fur trade.

Still for control of the Great Lakes, we are told the 4.35-square-mile or 11.3-kilometer-squared, in size Mackinac Island was the location of two battles during the War of 1812, which took place at the location on the island identified as the “British Landing,” and in which the British took control of the island for a few years.

We are told that Fort Holmes was built on the highest point of Mackinac Island by the British in 1814, and was taken possession of by United States Armed Forces as part of the Treaty of Ghent in 1815, which was the peace treaty that ended the War of 1812.

The Grand Hotel on Mackinac Island was said to have been constructed in the late 19th-century.

We are told in our historical narrative that in 1886, the Michigan Central Railroad, the Grand Rapids and Indiana Railroad, and the Detroit and Cleveland Steamship Navigation Company formed the Mackinac Island Hotel Company.

We are told they purchased the land and construction of the hotel began based on a design by Detroit architects Mason and Rice, and it first opened in 1887, a year later.

Still operating as a resort today, in its history it has been a destination for Presidents and famous people in our narrative.

Sunset Rock is a stone look-out on Mackinac Island with great views of the Straits of Mackinac, the bridge, and the sunset.

Interesting to note the shores of Mackinac Island lined with megalithic stone blocks.

Arch Rock is the most famous of the rock formations and is described as a natural geological formation that is 50-feet, or 15-meters, -wide, and towers above the water.

Here is a photo showing Arch Rock in alignment with the Milky Way.

Round Island is a little island in-between Mackinac Island and Bois Blanc Island.

The most noteworthy thing about the uninhabited Round Island are its lighthouses – the Round Island Passage Light Station and the Old Round Island Lighthouse.

The Round Island Passage Lighthouse was said to have been constructed starting in 1947 and operational in 1948.

The Round Island Channel that it is located in is a navigable waterway in Lake Huron and a key link in the lake freighter route between Lake Michigan and Lake Superior on which millions of tons of taconite iron ore are shipped annually, and has been an essential element in shipping the iron ores from northern Minnesota since the late 1800s.

The Old Round Island Lighthouse is located on the west shore of Round Island in the shipping lanes of the Straits of Mackinac, and was said to have been constructed in 1895.

It was seen in the 1980 movie “Somewhere in Time” which was filmed primarily on Mackinac Island.

Bois Blanc Island is on the other side of Round Island from Mackinac Island.

“Bois Blanc,” or “white wood,” is believed to be a reference either to the paper birch tree or basswood, which is called “bois blanc” in other contexts.

We are told in our historical narrative that Bois Blanc Island was ceded by the Chippewa “as an extra and voluntary gift” to the United States government in the 1795 Treaty of Greenville between the United States and the indigenous nations of the Northwest Territory for their lands for settlement after their defeat in the Battle of Fallen Timbers in August of 1794, ending what we are told was the Northwest Indian War took place in this region between 1786 and 1795 between the United States and the Northwestern Confederacy, consisting of the indigenous people of the Great Lakes area.

The Territory had been granted to the United States by Great Britain as part of the Treaty of Paris at the end of the Revolutionary War.

The area had previously been prohibited to new settlements, and was inhabited by numerous indigenous peoples, even though the British maintained a military presence in the region.

The 1795 Greenville Treaty forced the displacement of the indigenous people from most of Ohio, in return for cash and promises of fair treatment.

The community of Bois Blanc Township is on the island with a population of 100 in the 2020 Census, and has the smallest school district in terms of student enrollment in the nation, with three students in 2024 – 2025.

The Bois Blanc Lighthouse was said to have been constructed in 1867, two years after the end of the American Civil War.

It is on the northern end of the island is not in use and is privately-owned.

In the part of Lake Huron surrounding these three islands, we find Poe Reef Lighthouse; the Fourteen Foot Lighthouse; the Spectacle Reef Lighthouse; the Martin Reef Lighthouse, and more lighthouses in what is called the De Tour Passage – De Tour Reef Lighthouse; Frying Pan Island; the historical location of Fort Drummond; and the Pipe Island Light Beacon Station.

The Poe Reef Lighthouse is between Bois Blanc Island and the mainland of the Lower Peninsula, 6-miles, or 9.7-kilometers, east of Cheboygan.

Poe Reef is a problem for shipping, lying 8-feet, or almost 2.5-meters, below the surface of the water.

The Poe Reef Lighthouse was said to have been built in 1929, and sits on the northern-side of the South Channel, where the water is too shallow for Lake freighters.

Same story with the Fourteen Foot Shoal Lighthouse on the southern-side of the South Channel, and 3 1/2-miles, or 5.6-kilomters, from the Poe Reef Lighthouse.

It was also said to have been built in 1929 where there was a significant navigational hazard, with the water here being only 14-feet, or almost 4 1/2-meters, -deep.

The Spectacle Reef Lighthouse is on the other side of Bois Blanc Island from the Poe Reef and Fourteen Foot Reef Lighthouses.

The Spectacle Reef Lighthouse is 11-miles, or 18-kilometers, east of the Straits of Mackinac.

It was said to have been constructed at great expense between 1870 and 1874, and made of interlocking, hand-cut limestone blocks, and is 86-feet, or 26-kilometers, in height.

The Spectacle Reef Lighthouse is at a location where there are two limestone shoals that resemble a pair of eyeglasses, which constituted the most dreaded navigational hazard on the Great Lakes.

What we are told in our historical narrative is that there was an effort between 1870 and 1910 to build lighthouses where there were isolated reefs, shoals, and islands that were significant navigational hazards.

The Martin Reef Lighthouse is at a location where the water of Lake Huron is only a few inches deep in its shallowest area, and another significant hazard.

This lighthouse was said to have been constructed in the summer of 1927.

We are heading in the direction of the De Tour Passage, where we find things like several more lighthouses – De Tour Reef Lighthouse; Frying Pan Island; ; and the Pipe Island Light Beacon Station.

There are some other noteworthy things here as well, like the historical location of Fort Drummond and the De Tour Passage State Bottomlands.

This is where the St. Mary’s River starting at Lake Superior connects to Lake Huron, and where the International border between the United States and Canada winds its way through here.

The St. Mary’s River goes through the hydrological powerhouse that is the canal and hydroelectric dam system at Sault St. Marie in Michigan on one-side and in Ontario on the other.

The De Tour Reef Lighthouse is at the entrance of the De Tour Passage on the Lake Huron-side of it.

It is a non-profit-operated lighthouse that it is an important aid to navigation for lake freighters on their way back-and-forth between Lake Huron and Lake Superior.

This lighthouse was said to have been built in 1937, which would have been during the Great Depression, at the location of the De Tour Reef, a dangerous shoal, where vessels must thread there way past a shallow area that is no more than 23-feet, or 7-meters, -deep

Besides the lighthouses, the De Tour Passage has some interesting activity going on in the vicinity of historic Fort Drummond, and the De Tour Passage State Bottomland.

There are two big mining areas showing up in the historical location of Fort Drummond.

A close-up on the mine next to the Fort Drummond Historical Marker shows “Drummond Dolomite.”

Come to find out that Drummond Island here is part of a vast formation of dolomite on the Niagara Escarpment called the “Engadine Corona,” originating on the eastern tip of Manitoulin Island and extending to Manistique in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, a place that I talked about towards the end of the first part of the series on Lake Superior.

I will be revisiting Lake Huron and its connection to the Niagara Escarpment later in this post because from the De Tour Passage, I will be making my way down the western shore of the Lower Peninsula of Michigan on Lake Huron and working my way back up to this area when I travel up the eastern side of it in Ontario because the Niagara Escarpment is what separates Lake Huron and Georgian Bay.

The historic Fort Drummond was said to be the only known military and civilian site established by British forces on American soil during the War of 1812.

According to our historical narrative, the United States government demanded that the British abandon the fort in 1828, which they did, and the American forces that took possession of the fort never did anything with it.

This mining of a star fort location got my attention because I have seen it before.

When I was doing the research for “Star Forts, Gone-Bye Trolley Parks and Lighthouses of New York’s Hudson River Valley & New York Bays” back in November of 2022, I encountered several places like this along the way.

Star Forts, Gone-Bye Trolley Parks and Lighthouses of New York’s Hudson River Valley & New York Bays

One was in Moreau, New York, along the S-shaped bends of the Hudson River, near Hudson Falls and Fort Edwards.

I will be talking more in-depth about the waterfalls of the Great Lakes region in this post as I go around the shores of Lake Huron.

The nearby town of Moreau appears to be an interesting place by just glancing at the Google Earth screenshot.

Moreau has a mined structure next to the Hudson River and the Historical Society that looks like was a star fort at one time.

The towns of Moreau and Hudson Falls are connected by the Fenimore Bridge, which was said to have been constructed in 1906 by the Union Paper and Bag Company as the company had plants in both places.

With fifteen arch spans, roadway, sidewalk and a standard gauge railway track, at one time, it was considered the longest, multiple-span, reinforced concrete arch bridge in the world.

It was closed to traffic in 1989 after it was deemed to be structurally-deficient, and a replacement bridge was built next to it.

I found another place that was being mined further down the Hudson River that looked like it was a star fort at Tompkins Cove, which is directly across the river from the former Indian Point Park/Nuclear Power Plant and is directly adjacent to the Stony Point Lighthouse.

This is a close-up view of the mining of what appears to have been a star fort at Tompkins Cove, like what is seen in Moreau and Fort Drummond/Drummond Island

Indian Point is directly across from Tompkins Cove.

Indian Point Amusement Park was said to have been created in 1923 on a former farm by the Hudson Day Line, the premier steamboat line on the Hudson River from the 1860s through the 1940s, as a recreational park for its passengers.

The Indian Point Park had a cafeteria, picnic facilities, baseball diamonds, rides and games, dance hall, beer hall, miniature golf, swimming pool and speedboat rides.

The property backed up to the Croton and Mt. Kisco Reservoirs that provided water to New York City.

It reopened in 1950 under new management and operated for a few more years until it closed in the mid-1950s and the property was purchased by Consolidated Edison Gas and Electric Company for the Nuclear Power Plant which opened in 1962…

…and which was in operation until April 30th of 2021 when Indian Point Energy Center was permanently closed.

Before its closure, the two reactors there provided an estimated 25% of New York City’s electrical power usage.

The Stony Point Lighthouse is on the same side of the Hudson River as Tompkins Cove, and just below it.

Before leaving the town of Stony Point, there is a light house here to show you.

Like we are seeing with places associated with the War of 1812 taking place at several locations on Lake Huron at the Straits of Mackinac, the Stony Point Lighthouse stands on the grounds of the Stony Point State Historic Site, said to be the location of the 1779 Battle of Stony Point during the American Revolutionary War.

We are told the Stony Point Lighthouse is the oldest lighthouse on the Hudson River, having been built in 1826 to warn ships away from the rocks of the Stony Point peninsula.

It was decommissioned in 1925; acquired by the Parks Commission in 1941, and added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1979; restored starting in 1986, and reactivated in 1995.

Doesn’t this lighthouse look rather strange?

Short and squat…and crooked?

Like maybe this is the top of a much larger structure, the rest of which has been encased in earth?

There is one more thing I would like to mention before I return to Lake Huron and the De Tour Passage from the Hudson River.

There was a massive Rockefeller presence in our historical narrative up-and-down the Hudson River, as well as the New York City area.

The John D. Rockefeller Estate known as “Kykuit” is just down the Hudson River in-between Stony Point and New York City, a word which looks like “Circuit.”

Situated on the highest point in the Pocantino Hills, the Rockefeller Estate was said to have been built in 1913.

I know I digress but I believe these are significant findings with regards to how the original energy grid was constructed, and then it was deliberately destroyed, and reverse-engineered into an energy-harvesting system, and who was behind it all.

In the process of the destruction of the energy grid, the surface of the Earth was destroyed.

Then the components of the energy grid were harvested by those responsible for what has taken place here on Earth without our knowledge or consent, and we find the same kinds of being stories told to cover all of this up, and the same kinds of things are found along the Hudson River in New York that are found in the Great Lakes region…

…including finding John D. Rockefeller in Duluth on Lake Superior.

in the 1890s, the Merritt Brothers, also known as the “Seven Iron Brothers” owned the largest iron mine in the world in the 1890s.

We are told that in 1891, the Merritt family incorporated the Duluth, Missabe, and Northern Railway Company to build a 70-mile, or 113-kilometer-long, railroad from the mine to the port at Superior, Wisconsin, which was just to the south of Duluth, raising the money needed in exchange for bonds from the railroad company.

Their success attracted the attention of John D. Rockefeller, who wanted to expand into the iron ore business, and the Merritts put their company stock up as collateral to borrow money from Rockefeller in order to fund the railroad.

Long story short, the Merritts ended up being financially ruined, and Rockefeller came to own both the mine and the railroad.

After Rockefeller assumed ownership in 1894, he leased his iron ore properties and the railroad to the Carnegie Steel Company in 1896.

John D. Rockefeller sold the railway to United States Steel in 1901, after it had been formed by the merger of Andrew Carnegie’s Carnegie Steel Company, Elbert Gary’s Federal Steel Company, and William Henry Moore’s National Steel Company in 1901, which was financed by J. P. Morgan.

 J. P. Morgan was an American financier and banker who dominated corporate finance on Wall Street throughout the period of time called the “Gilded Age,” between the years of 1870 and 1900.

He was a driving force behind the wave of industrial consolidation in the United States in the late 19th- and early 20th-centuries.

Besides his involvement in the formation of the U. S. Steel Corporation, he was also behind the formation of General Electric and International Harvester, among many other mergers.

John D. Rockefeller, the progenitor of the wealthy Rockefeller family, is at the top of the list of the Robber Barons behind the reset of our history.

He was considered to be the wealthiest American of all time, as seen in this ranking by CNN Business, with an adjusted wealth of $253-billion.

Rockefeller’s wealth soared as kerosene and gasoline grew in importance.

At his peak, he controlled 90% of all oil.

It is my belief from all my research that as quickly as possible, a way was found to replace what remained of the free-energy system with their own coal- and oil-based system, and in the process make money hand over fist from the total control of the new system.

Now back to the De Tour Passage on the St. Mary’s River where it connects to Lake Huron.

Today’s Pipe Island Light Beacon Station is at the north entrance of the De Tour Passage, and in-between it and the Frying Pan Island Lighthouse is the “De Tour Passage State Bottomland.”

This is what we are told about this location.

The Pipe Island Lighthouse was said to have been established and first lit in 1888 to aid shipping entering into the St. Mary’s River from Lake Huron.

While still an active aid to navigation today, we are told that in 1937, the lantern room was deactivated, and a daymarker added in place of the lantern.

And for comparison of similarity of appearance, here is the same photo of the Pipe Island Lighthouse and a building next to it on the left, and the just shown Stony Point Lighthouse on the Hudson River in New York with both places looking like there is more below the earth’s surface.

The “De Tour Passage State Bottomland” is an underwater preserve located throughout the De Tour Passage.

The shallow waters there contain the remains of lost ships that are accessible to divers.

This is what we are told about the Frying Pan Island Lighthouse.

It was first lit in 1882, and built on Frying Pan Island to warn of the Frying Pan Shoal on the St. Mary’s River.

It was said to be a front range light with the light on Pipe Island.

The Frying Pan Island Lighthouse and Shoal in the De Tour Passage brought to my mind the Frying Pan Lighthouse and Shoals in the Cape Fear region of North Carolina, which I found when I was “Trekking the Serpent Ley” from the Bermuda Triangle to Lake Itasca in Minnesota back in August of 2023.

Trekking the Serpent Ley

Cape Fear is 5- miles, or 8-kilometers, south at Bald Head Island, and Frying Pan Shoals is the location of many historical shipwrecks.

Frying Pan Shoals is described as a labyrinth of sandbars that extend 20-miles, or 32-kilometers, into the Atlantic Ocean, and is known as the “Graveyard of the Atlantic.”

Frying Pan Tower & Light Station is also now a Bed & Breakfast, and also a popular destination for scuba divers to check out the wrecks.

Now I am going to turn my attention to Cheboygan located a short-distance to the southeast of Mackinaw City on US Highway Route 23, and start the journey from the top of the mitten of Michigan’s Lower Peninsula down the western-side of Lake Huron.

Before I look around to see what’s available to find in Cheboygan, upon seeing the presence of US Highway Route 23 here it’s important for me to take a moment to highlight some of the different aspects about US-23, a subject I brought up in the first part of this series on Lake Superior, and its going to lead me to making a bigger picture connection between highways, waterfalls, railroads, and the original energy grid that will continue to be highlighted in this journey around Lake Huron.

Firstly, US -23 runs for a distance of 1,453-miles, or 2,310-kilometers, between Mackinaw City in Michigan at its northern terminus at I-75, and the southern terminus at the Junction of US-1 and US-17 in Jacksonville in Florida.

Mackinaw City is just a short-distance south on I-75 from St. Ignace across the Mackinac Bridge, which is the northern terminus of I-75.

Mackinaw City is not far from the location of the Tahquamenon Falls State Park, where there are a series of waterfalls on the Tahquamenon River before it empties into Lake Superior in the northeastern part of the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, and the Tahquamenon Falls.

The Tahquamenon Falls are on Michigan State Highway 123, and are accessible from Michigan Highway 28.

I was able to find an historical rail presence at Tahquamenon Falls when I searched and what came up was the “Tahquamenon Falls Riverboat Tours & Toonerville Trolley.”

It is a 6 1/2-hour wilderness tour that starts at Soo Junction that includes a narrow-gauge train ride and riverboat cruise to the Falls.

I found this information from past research about the Tahquamenon Falls and Toonerville Trolley because I was looking at the Tallulah Gorge and Falls in Georgia, which are also on US-23.

This was when I was doing the research for “Of Railroads and Waterfalls, and Other Physical Infrastructure of the Earth’s Grid System” back in June of 2023.

Of Railroads and Waterfalls and Other Physical Infrastructure of the Earth’s Grid System

The Tallulah Gorge and Tallulah Falls in North Georgia are close to the South Carolina State Line.

A State Park since 1993, the major attractions of the park are the 1,000-foot, or 300-meter, deep Tallulah Gorge; the Tallulah River which runs through the gorge; and six major waterfalls known as the Tallulah Falls which cause the river to drop 500-feet, or 152-meters, over one-mile, or 1.6-kilometers.

This is what we are told.

In 1854, The General Assembly of the State of Georgia first enacted legislation for the construction of a railroad linking the towns of Athens and Clayton in North Georgia, and the railroad opened in sections starting in 1870, with construction of the railroad having been delayed with the outbreak of the Civil War between 1861 and 1865.

When the railroad arrived at Tallulah Falls in 1882, tourism to the area intensified, bringing thousands of people a week to the area.

At one time, there were seventeen restaurants and boarding houses here catering to wealthy tourists.

Places like the Tallulah Lodge, said to be the grandest lodge at Tallulah Falls with over 100-rooms and built in the 1890s, and located one-mile, or 1.6-kilometers, south of the depot on the rim of the gorge.

The Tallulah Lodge burned down in 1916.

Then there was an historical fire in Tallulah Falls in 1921 that wiped out almost the entire town.

We are told that starting in 1909, the Georgia Railway and Power Company, had scouted the Tallulah River and Gorge with its drop in elevation as the ideal place to construct a dam and hydroelectric plant in order to provide electrical power to Atlanta, and that it ended up being one of six being constructed along a 26-mile, or 42-kilometer, stretch of the Tallulah and Tugaloo Rivers with a 1,200-foot, or 366-meter, drop in elevation, between 1913 and 1927.

The construction of the dam at Tallulah Falls was said to have started in 1910 with the purchase of land at the rim of the Tallulah Gorge, and completed in 1914 after the company won a legal battle to halt its activities in the Tallulah Gorge.

Here is a postcard with the Tallulah Falls Bridge on U. S. Highway 23/State Road 15 crossing right in front of the dam and the Lake Tallulah Reservoir.

The bridge was said to have been built between 1938 and 1939.

When I was looking at the shores of Lake Superior in the first part of this series, I found the Sable Falls at the northeastern end of the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore in Michigan.

Sable Falls flow 75-feet, or 23-meters, over what is called Munising and Jacobsville sandstone formations, directly into Lake Superior.

As we go through the information available to find along the way, I will show you exactly why I believe the outflow of the waterfalls of the Great Lakes Region, which were components of a highly-sophisticated hydrological and electrical system throughout the region, as pointed out by the example of the hydrological powerhouse that is the canal and hydrolectric dam system at Sault St. Marie on the St. Mary’s River that connects Lake Superior and Lake Huron, formed the Great Lakes after a deliberately caused cataclysm destroyed the original energy grid and subsequently destroyed the surface of the Earth.

Also in the location of Sable Falls, we find the Grand Sable Dunes running along the northeast end of the Pictured Rocks Lakeshore for 6-miles, or 10-kilometers.

This is the view of them from what is called the “Log Slide Overview,” where in the 19th-century, loggers used them to slide logs from the top of the dunes to the shoreline so they could be transported out.

The Au Sable Point Lighthouse is located in the area of the Grand Sable Dunes and Sable Falls, and it is nicknamed the “Beacon of the Shipwreck Coast.”

The lighthouse here was said to have been built between 1873 and 1874.

Munising at the southwestern end of the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore Park.

The “Pictured Rocks” are described as dramatic, multicolored cliffs with unusual sandstone formations, but look strangely like melted or ruined infrastructure.

Formations like what are called natural archways all along the lakeshore, like the one called “Lovers Leap” on the left; and unusual formations like the one named “Chapel Rock” in the middle; and Miners Castle Rock” on the right.

This was Grand Portal Rock as seen in this lithograph from 1851,which mysteriously collapsed in the early 1900s, from the believed cause of erosion but, as the story goes, no one really knows what might have caused it.

Besides Sable Falls, the general area around Munising has many waterfalls.

Others waterfalls in the area include: Alger Falls; Horseshoe Falls; Memorial Falls; Munising Falls; Miners Falls; Scott Falls; Tannery Falls; and Wagner Falls.

The Munising area is also where Au Train is located.

This information connects back to the Au Train – Whitefish Channel in the Little Bay de Noc of Green Bay I mentioned previously in this post that appears to be an underwater canal.

I was able to find a map and reference on-line about there being a proposed ship canal on land in Michigan historically between at Au Train Bay near Munising, and Escanaba at Little Bay de Noc, and we are told that even as recently as the 1980s has been looked into as a possible project for excavation but has been rejected because of projected costs.

Now back to Cheboygan.

We are told Cheboygan was originally an Ojibwe settlement, and that in 1844 a barrel-maker from Fort Mackinac named Jacob Sammons chose the old native camping ground as a site for his cabin.

He started a settlement here with others and it was named Duncan, sawmills were established in a region known for its lumber, and by 1853, Duncan was the county seat, and by 1870, Duncan was included in the expanded boundaries of Cheboygan, which became the county seat of Cheboygan County.

The City of Cheboygan was incorporated in 1889.

In our historical narrative, the railroad finally came to Cheboygan in 1881 when the Jackson, Lansing and Saginaw Branch of the Michigan Central Railroad extended a railroad line from Gaylord to Cheboygan, which was extended to Mackinaw City the following year.

Then in 1904, the Detroit and Mackinac Railway extended its line to Cheboygan.

As time went on, the lumber industry no longer dominated the economy, though there was a Proctor and Gamble plant here, but when it closed in the 1990s, we are told the need for rail service was eliminated, and today, the former railroads of northern Michigan are considered one of the finest recreational trail systems in the United States, with Cheboygan at the junction of the previously-mentioned North Central State Trail from Gaylord, and the North Eastern State Trail from Alpena.

There are two lighthouses in Cheboygan – the Cheboygan Crib Rear Lighthouse and the Cheboygan River Front Range Lighthouse.

The Cheboygan Crib Rear Lighthouse marks the west pier head of the mouth of the Cheboygan River

We are told it was originally constructed in 1884 on what was called a “crib,” which was an artificial-island landfill located more than 2,000-feet, or 610-meters, from the Cheboygan shore, but that in 1984 it was moved to the pier after it was deemed “surplus” property by the Coast Guard

With regards to the Cheboygan River Front Range Lighthouse in our historical narrative, we are told that in 1871, an improvement project to improve the Cheboygan Harbor began by dredging the Cheboygan River, and that by 1883, the portion of the river between the steamboat landing and the railroad dock had been dredged to a width of 200-feet, or 61-meters, and a depth of not less than 14-feet, or 4-meters.

Prior to this, the water over the bar at the mouth of the river had a depth of 7-feet, or 2-meters.

We are told that by 1880, two range lighthouses were operational, one of them being Cheboygan River Front Range Lighthouse, which still stands today.

The other range light was said to have been replaced by a 75-foot, or 23-meter, tall iron tower in 1900.

Rogers City is just a little ways down the coast from Cheboygan, where we find in the surrounding area the Forty Mile Point Lighthouse; Presque Isle and its Lighthouses; and the Ocqueoc Falls.

In our historical narrative, Rogers City was established in 1868 when William Rogers and several other people came to survey the area and for logging purposes in 1868, and that in 1870, post office was opened here.

It changed names and status several times over the years, but was eventually incorporated as a city in 1944.

Rogers City, the largest city in Presque Isle County, only had a population of 2,850 in the 2020 census.

Yet, the world’s largest open-pit limestone Quarry happens to be within the Rogers City limits at the Port of Calcite, which is one of the largest shipping ports on the Great Lakes.

The Forty Mile Point Lighthouse Park is located just to the north of Rogers City.

This is what we are told about it.

It received its name from being a distance of 40-miles, or 64-kilometers, from the Old Mackinaw Point Lighthouse in Mackinaw City.

It was constructed with the intent that as one sailed from Mackinaw Point to the St. Clair River, one would never be without viewing range of a light house.

It’s construction was said to have been completed by 1896, and it was first lit in 1897.

The appearance of the Forty Mile Point Lighthouse on the top left brings the architectural style and building orientation I have seen in many places all over the Earth, including but not limited to, what is seen in Atchison, Kansas, on the top right; Santa Cruz de Tenerife on the bottom left; and the ancient city of Ouarzazate in Morocco, on the bottom right.

What we find in the area of the Presque Isle Harbor on the other side of Rogers City from the Forty Mile Point Lighthouse is the New Presque Isle lighthouse, the Front and Rear Range Lights, and the Presque Isle Quarry.

The New Presque Isle lighthouse was said to have been built in 1870, and is still an active aid to navigation.

It was said to have been built to replace the Old Presque Isle Lighthouse, which is not operational and a museum today.

Like the New Presque Isle lighthouse, the Presque Isle Front and Rear Range Lights were also said to have been built in 1870.

They were said to have been built in the channel leading into the harbor to help mariners avoid the shallows on either side, and they are still active today.

They are right next to the Presque Island Quarry, one of the largest limestone quarries in the nation with two adjacent pits that extend for 5-miles, or 8-kilometers, along the shore of Lake Huron.

The Ocqueoc Falls are directly to the west of the Forty Mile Point Lighthouse; Rogers City; and Presque Isle.

The Ocqueoc Falls on the Ocqueoc River are one of the many waterfalls surrounding Lake Huron.

It is a popular recreational destination in the Lower Peninsula with hiking, biking, and camping opportunities.

It is the largest and only-named waterfall in the region, and the only universally-accessible one.

Similar to the previously-mentioned Tallulah Gorge and Falls in Georgia, at the falls, the Ocqueoc River drops 5-feet, or 1.5-meters, before entering a small gorge with rocky walls, and below the gorge flows into Lake Huron’s Hammond Bay.

The next place we come to going down along the coast is Alpena.

Besides being the location of Thunder Bay and the previously-mentioned Thunder Bay National Marine Sanctuary where approximately 100 shipwrecks are protected, there are three lighthouses here – Middle Island; Thunder Bay Island; and Alpena Harbor.

European settlement started in 1835, and Alpena was officially incorporated by the Michigan State Legislature on March 29th of 1871, which is interesting because on October 8th of 1871, we are told most of the city was lost in the Manistee Fire, one of three fires in Michigan on that same day known collectively as the Great Michigan Fire, which also took place on the same day as the Great Chicago Fire and the Peshtigo Fire in Wisconsin on Lake Michigan.

Then there was another fire less than a year later, on July 12th of 1872, which destroyed an additional 65-or-so homes and businesses, and then we are told yet another disastrous fire for Alpena happened again in 1888.

The Middle Island Lighthouse is 10-miles, or 16-kilometers, north of Alpena, Michigan.

We are told that it was a midway point between Presque Isle Harbor to the north and Thunder Bay to the south, and that one side of the island offered safe harbor, and the other side guarded by shoals and considered a particularly dangerous spot for ships.

We are told the construction of the brick lighthouse there today started in June of 1904 and was completed and operational by June of 1905.

The Thunder Bay Island Lighthouse is said to be one of the oldest operating lighthouses in Michigan.

Our historical narrative tells us the one standing today was said to have been built in 1857, with two others having been built there, one in 1831 that disintegrated almost immediately, and another in 1832 out of local limestone.

The Alpena Harbor Lighthouse stands on the north breakwater of the Alpena, which marks the entrance to the Thunder Bay River from the Thunder Bay.

The current lighthouse was said to have been there since 1914, replacing earlier wooden structures in use between 1877 and 1888.

The history of the city of Alpena is closely connected with the lumber industry.

Founded during the 19th-century lumber boom, it became a major lumber harvesting and processing center.

Leaving the Alpena area and heading down the coast we come next to the Sturgeon Point Lighthouse and unincorporated community of Oscoda.

The Sturgeon Point Lighthouse in today’s Sturgeon Point State Park was said to have been built in the “Cape Cod Style Great Lakes Lighthouse” in 1869 in order to ward ships off a reef that extends 1.5-miles, or 2.4-kilometers, lakeward from Sturgeon Point which was responsible for a large number of lost ships and men.

Oscoda is located at the mouth of the Au Sable River where it enters Lake Huron.

We are told the area was first settled in 1867 when a law firm purchased land and platted a community, with the Oscoda Post Office established on July 1st of 1875.

There’s a Lumberman’s Monument in the area that was dedicated in 1932 to the lumbermen that first settled here.

Noteworthy places include the former Wurtsmith Air Force Base, Largo Springs, and the Tuttle Marsh Wildlife Area.

Wurtsmith Air Force Base was commissioned here in 1923, and was one of three Strategic Air Command bases that housed B-52 bombers.

The base was decommissioned in 1993, and the area is now an on-going Superfund site due to extensive groundwater contamination.

A part of the former airbase is still used as a public-use airport.

Largo Springs in Oscoda has several viewing docks and a boardwalk through natural springs.

Largo Springs was a CCC site in 1934, like other places we have seen so far in this series.

There is no doubt in my mind that the CCC, and the other alphabet programs of FDR’s New Deal during the Great Depression, like the WPA and TVA, were being used to cover-up the ancient advanced civilization.

The entrance to the Tuttle Marsh Wildlife Area is approximately 5-miles, or 8-kilometers, west of Oscoda on Old US Highway 23, the same US-23 I mentioned earlier in this post that goes from Jacksonville in Florida to Mackinaw City in Michigan, and has connections both to the Tallulah Falls and Gorge in Georgia, and the Tahquemenon Falls in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan by way of Michigan State Highway 123, and are accessible from Michigan Highway 28, and both these places have historic railroad connections.

As I have been saying in this series and in other work I have done, I consistently find the presence of swamps, marshes, deserts and dunes along the leylines I have been tracking over a long-distances for a long time, from place-to-place-to-place.

The next places I would like to bring your attention to down the coast is what is found in the vicinity of the Tawas Point Lighthouse, which also includes Tawas City and Alabaster Junction.

The Tawas Point Lighthouse is contained within the Tawas Point State Park, a public recreation area.

This is the second lighthouse said to have been built at this location between 1876 and 1877, with the first one said to have been constructed between 1852 and 1853, with Tawas point itself being a serious hazard to navigation with shifting sands.

We are told it was originally named “Ottawa Point,” and the name changed to “Tawas Point” in 1902.

Here is the Tawas Point Lighthouse with a full moon known as a “Supermoon” rising directly behind it back in November of 2016.

The Tawas Point State Park is located on 183-acres, or 74-hectares, at the end of a sand-spit that forms Tawas Bay.

This location in Michigan has been referred to as the “Cape Cod of the Midwest.”

This is an interesting reference to make because not only does Tawas Point have the same curving appearance as Cape Cod, the location of Cape Cod in Massachusetts has the same features that we have seen in the Great Lakes, like extreme weather, shipwrecks, and shallow bathymetry…

…as well as lighthouses and historic railroad beside the coastal areas.

Here is the map showing fourteen lighthouses on Cape Cod alone, as well as other lighthouses of this part of New England, on the left, as well as the historic Old Colony Railroad that traversed the length of the narrow Cape Cod.

Again, it is my working premise the lighthouses and railroad, and star forts for that matter, were once working components of the Earth’s original energy grid, and that land masses sank around them when the energy grid was deliberately targeted for destruction by the Dark Forces directly responsible for the world we live in today, and the destruction of the energy grid is what brought us the bodies of water we see today that weren’t there prior to this event.

Like the Great Lakes and Cape Cod in Massachusetts, the treacherous waters of the Outer Banks in North Carolina have also given it the nickname of “Graveyard of the Atlantic” because of the numerous shipwrecks that have occurred here because of its treacherous waters consisting of things like shallows, shifting sands, and strong currents.

We are told the nearby Tawas City was founded in 1854, and was the first city located on the shores of Saginaw Bay and Lake Huron north of Bay City.

The forest lands of the area supported a lumber and sawmill industry early in its history like so many of the other places we have seen along the way.

It is interesting to note that this photo was notated as the Main Street of East Tawas City in 1910.

Tawas City is on US-23.

US-23 has been designated the “Sunrise Side Coastal Highway” as it runs along the Lake Huron Shoreline.

Alabaster Junction is a short-distance south of Tawas City on US-23.

It was formerly a location on the Detroit, Bay City & Alpena Railroad, later known as the D & M, Lake States Railroad.

A branch known as the  Erie & Michigan Railway & Navigation company left the mainline here, and served the Alabaster gypsum quarry along the Lake Huron shoreline.

It held the world’s record for equipment per mile of track, from Alabaster on the shore of Tawas Bay to East Tawas, which is a distance of 11-miles, or 18-kilometers.

These days, Alabaster is an abandoned mining complex that consists of an open-pit gypsum mine, and the remains of processing buildings, shops, and offices, an abandoned railroad and what we are told was an elevated marine tramway that that spanned 1.5-miles, or 2.4-kilometers, into Saginaw Bay.

The next community we come to with a lighthouse nearby is Au Gres, and the Gravelly Shoal and Charity Island Lighthouses southeast of Point Lookout on the western-side of Saginaw Bay.

Like we saw towards the beginning of this post, the Saginaw Bay is quite shallow, ranging in depth from 0 – 100-meters or 328-feet.

The Gravelly Shoal Lighthouse is an active aid to navigation on the shallow shoals extending to the southeast from Point Lookout.

It was said to have been constructed in 1939 as part of FDRs New Deal and its program to “Put America Back to Work.”

The Charity Island Lighthouse was said to have been constructed in 1857 and abandoned in 1939 when the Gravelly Shoal Lighthouse became operational.

Today the former Lighthouse Keepers quarters have been renovated and it is an active VRBO accommodation.

Point Lookout State Park is approximately half-way between Tawas City and the mouth of the Saginaw River in Bay City.

The nearby Au Gres was first settled in 1862 by construction workers on the Saginaw – Au Sable State Road, and Au Gres incorporated as a city in 1905.

Its population was 945 in the 2020 census.

It is also located on US-23.

Next I am going to head on down to Bay City area at the mouth of the Saginaw River where it enters Saginaw Bay.

Saginaw Bay forms the space between Michigan’s Thumb Region and the rest of the Lower Peninsula.

Bay City is the principal city of the Bay City metropolitan area, and the county seat of Bay County.

Here are some photos I found of historical buildings in Bay City, like the Bay County Courthouse circa 1896…

…the Bay County Jail that we are told existed from 1870 to 1940…

…the historic Bay City Hall…

…and the Federal Building in Bay City circa 1910.

The Saginaw River Rear Range Light is in Bay City at the entrance of the Saginaw River into Saginaw Bay.

We are told in our historical narrative that the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers dredged the Saginaw River to allow larger ships to travel upriver, and that this change required the placement of lighthouses, and that in 1876 a pair of range lights had been erected.

The first lighthouse, the “front range light,” was completely removed by the 1960s.

The Saginaw River Rear Range Light is still there but deactivated in 1960.

Interestingly, the Dow Chemical Company, which already owned the land surrounding the Rear Range Light, purchased the lighthouse in 1986, and then proceeded to board it up until 1999, when the Saginaw River Marine Historical Society approached Dow about renovating it and opening to the public, though all these years later it is not permanently open to the public, seemingly just for special occasions like the Tall Ship Celebration in Bay City in 2019, which was the last time it was open to the public.

Now we are offically heading into the region known as “The Thumb,” travelling along what is known as “The Thumb Coast.”

It is noteworthy that the Huron Fire took place on October 8th of 1871, which burned a total of 1.2-million-acres, of Michigan’s Thumb region.

This was the exact same day as the Great Chicago Fire and the Peshtigo Fire in Wisconsin, as well as two other fires in Michigan – in Manistee and Holland.

Then, almost ten-years later to the day, on on September 5th of 1881, the Michigan Thumb Fire started, with hurricane-force winds and hot and dry conditions.

Interesting to note the following descriptions that accompanied the 1881 Michigan Thumb Fire.

Soot and ash from the fire caused sunlight to be obscured in places on the U. S. East Coast and in New England, the sky had a yellow appearance, and which caused a strange luminosity in and on buildings and vegetation, and Tuesday, September 6th of 1881, became known as “Yellow Tuesday” because of this unsettling event.

The first official disaster relief operation of the American Red Cross was responding to the Thumb Fire less than four months after the establishment of the American Red Cross.

The American Red Cross was founded in 1881 by Clara Barton as a non-profit humanitarian organization that provides emergency assistance, as well as disaster relief and disaster preparedness education.

Clara Barton had been a hospital nurse during the American Civil War.

She had connections in upstate New York, and the American Red Cross was established on May 21st of 1881 in Dansville, New York, and the first local chapter was at the English Evangelical Lutheran Church of Dansville.

Other names involved in the establishment of the American Red Cross included Senator Omar D. Conger, who had a home in Dansville where its founders met…

….even though he was one of the Senator’s for Michigan and had lived and worked in Port Huron, in Michigan’s region known as “The Thumb.”

An early example of Problem – Reaction – Solution?

Did they actually create the disasters, and then provide the response to the disasters?

John D. Rockefeller was amongst several that donated to create a national headquarters near the White House in Washington, DC, said to have been built between 1915 and 1917.

So as we make our way up the Thumb Coast from Bay City, we come to places like Sebewaing and Bay Port, along what appears to be a continuing ruined shore-line.

I have documented similar findings along shore-lines in multiple places, including, but not limited to, when I was doing the research for “Recovering Lost History from the Estuaries, Pine Barrens & Elite Enclaves off the Atlantic Northeast Coast of the United States,” in January of 2023.

Recovering Lost History from the Estuaries, Pine Barrens & Elite Enclaves off the Atlantic Northeast Coast of the United States

My research findings of many included the ruined-looking appearance of the shoreline from the South Jersey Shore on up through the Southshore of Long Island.

Here’s a closer a look at the South Jersey shoreline up to the New York-New Jersey Estuary System, so you can get a better view of what I am referring to on the left, and then what the shoreline looks like going from the New York – New Jersey Estuary System across Long Island to Montauk Point on the right.

And in spite of the marshy and wetland quality of the landscape hereabouts, this whole area is prime and valuable real estate that is, among other things, coveted by the very wealthy in our society.

This part of the world is highly prized by those of wealth and prestige.

So Sebewaing in Michigan for example, is notable for being the “Sugar Beet Capital,” in a region and state known for being major sugar beet producers.

The next place we come to up the Thumb Coast that I would like to mention is Bay Port.

While today Bay Port had a population of a little under 600 people in the 2020 Census, in 1886. the railroad came through here, and commercial fishing became a viable economic industry in the area.

The Bay Port Fish Company was established by investors in 1895, and Lake Herring, Walleye, and Whitefish were shipped via ice-filled rail cars to customers throughout the eastern United States.

Bay Port was considered the largest freshwater fishing port in the world by the 1920s and 1930s.

Then in 1945, a fire destroyed much of the Fish Company’s buildings and eventually over a period of decades, the large-scale commercial fishing industry went away.

Further up the Thumb Coast at the top of the mitten we come to Port Austin; the Port Austin Reef Lighthouse; Grind Stone City; and the Pointe au Barques Lighthouse.

Port Austin was a village of 664 people in the 2010 census.

It is on the western end of the larger Port Austin Township in Huron County, with a population of 1,384 in the 2020 census.

Port Austin is the northern terminus of Michigan Highway 53, of which Detroit is the southern terminus.

Port Austin is the location of “Turnip Rock,” described as a geological formation classified as a stack in shallow water a very short distance offshore, we will continue to see these as we make our way around the shores of Lake Huron.

I think “formations” like these are remnants of sunken infrastructure and land.

Port Crescent State Park is a public recreation area near Port Austin that occupeis the site of the former Port Crescent, ghost town which stood at the mouth of the Pinnebog River.

In 1961, the Pack & Woods Sawmill Chimney, one of the last visible remnants of Port Crescent, was demolished in spite of the objections of local residents.

Also, like the state parks we saw all around the shores of Lake Michigan, there are dunes here, and no, I don’t think these are natural either, as I believe a deliberate attack on the original free-energy grid system destroyed the surface of the Earth.

There are two lighthouses in close proximity to each other at the top of “The Thumb” – the Port Austin Reef Lighthouse and the Pointe au Barques Lighthouse.

The Port Austin Reef Lighthouse is located 2.5-miles, or 4-kilometers, north of Port Austin.

It is on a rocky shoal and considered a significant hazard to navigation.

The Port Austin Reef Lighthouse was said to have been constructed in 1878.

While there is an automated light in the lighthouse that is still operational, the lighthouse itself ihas been undergoing restoration for quite some time and is not open to the public.

Here is an historic photo of the Port Austin Reef Lighthouse on the left in comparison with the previously seen Forty Mile Point Lighthouse near Rogers City, and with which I also showed photos of other locations with the same architectural style, building orientation, and placement of the windows in Kansas; Tenerife in the Canary Islands; and Morocco.

The Pointe au Barques Lighthouse today is an active lighthouse and maritime museum along the shores of Lake Huron on the northeastern tip of the Thumb.

The current structure was said to have been built in 1857.

The last place I went to mention here before I move on down the Lake Huron coast is the interestingly-named Grind Stone City southeast of the Point aux Barques Lighthouse.

Grind Stone City is an unincorporated community in the eastern end of the Port Austin Township that was established in 1834.

It is the location of the Grind Stone City Historic District, which was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1971.

In our historical narrative, we are told Grind Stone City was notable for a grindstone quarry that was established here sometime around 1833 by Captain Aaron G. Peer, who along with his brother, built a schooner for the Lake Transport business at the tip of Michigan’s “Thumb,” and by 1850, was selling $3,000 worth of grindstones a year.

The Lake Huron Stone Company and Cleveland Stone Company took over all operations in the area after a second quarry was opened.

The Grind Stone City Historic District is located on Michigan State Trunkline Highway 25, which follows the arc-like shape closely along the Lake Huron shore of the Thumb between Port Huron and Bay City.

Michigan State Highway 25 was once part of the longer US Highway Route 25, when it was first established with the United States Numbered Highway System in 1926.

The original US-25 began at US Highway 17 in Brunswick, Georgia, and ended at Port Huron in Michigan, and was extended to Port Austin in 1933.

Today the northern terminus of US-25 is Covington in Kentucky at the Ohio State Line directly across from Cincinnati, as all of US-25 was deleted north of Cincinnati, Ohio, in the 1970s.

Interesting to note that the southern terminus of US-25 in Brunswick, Georgia, was the location of the train station on the Southern and Atlantic Coast Railroad that serviced Jekyll Island where the creators of the Federal Reserve met in 1910 at Munsey’s Magazine described in 1904 as the “richest, most exclusive, and the most inaccessible” club in the world.

Arriving on a private train car, the group of men who attended the 10-day secret meeting on Jekyll Island in November of 1910 adopted the cover story of a “duck hunt” to explain their activities and hide the true purpose of their meeting, and addressed each other by their first names only – hence they adopted the name of the “First Name Club.”

The Oglethorpe Hotel pictured here in Brunswick was said to have opened in January of 1888, after having been built on top of the previous Oglethorpe House which was said to have burned down during the Civil War.

It remained in operation until 1958, at which time it was torn down and replaced by a Holiday Inn.

The Holiday Inn was eventually torn down too, leaving an empty lot in downtown Brunswick called the “Oglethorpe Block.”

Now a word about the United States Numbered Highway System, also known as the Federal Highway System, that we have already seen examples of come up in this post, including US-23, the “Sunrise Side Coastal Highway” that runs along the Lake Huron Shoreline all the way up to Mackinaw City.

It was actually called an “integrated network of roads and highways numbered within a nationwide grid across the contiguous United States.”

Drawn up in 1913, by the National Highway Association, this map was said to be the first proposed U. S. Highway Network map.

The red roads were delineated “Main” National Highways; the blue roads “Trunk” National Highways; and the yellow roads were “Link” National Highways to connect all the “Mains” and “Trunks.”

The Nation’s first Federal Highways would not be adopted until 1926, when the American Association of State Highway officials approved the first plans for the numbered highway system, with this section showing Texas, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Arkansas, Louisiana and Mississippi.

I have blue arrows pointing to major cities that are the central point of at least five highways – Dallas, Texas; Tulsa, Oklahoma; Little Rock, Arkansas; Memphis, Tennessee; Nashville, Tennessee; and Birmingham, Alabama.

What we see happening with the highway system of certain cities being the central point of multiple highways, were frequently seen also seen as being the central point of multiple rail-lines.

This Civil War era-example shows that Petersburg in Virginia, just south of Richmond, was a central point of multiple rail-lines emanating from it in all directions.

Petersburg was the focal point of the railroads that supplied Richmond during the Civil War, and was the primary target for the Union Army in Virginia from the last half of 1864 until April of 1865, and Richmond was burned down on April 2nd of 1865 by Confederate forces after Confederate President Jefferson Davis was said to have ordered the burning of warehouses and bridges after Union General Ulysses S. Grant had taken Petersburg.

There’s a very similar configuration between Petersburg Rail-lines of the Civil War-era, and the highways around Richmond and Petersburg today.

Like Petersburg/Richmond, Atlanta was an important rail and commercial center at the time of the Civil War, and is a highway hub today.

The Burning of Atlanta took place in November of 1864 during the Civil War after General Sherman and his Union Forces captured the city of Atlanta in September 2nd of 1864, and occupied it from then until November of 1864.

He gave orders to destroy Atlanta as a transportation hub and as a war material manufacturing center, and in particular the railroad system and everything connected to it.

His orders were carried out destroying physical infrastructure, and on November 15th, everything that had been destroyed was set on-fire.

Like Petersburg/Richmond and Atlanta, Columbia in South Carolina was a transportation hub with regards to rail infrastructure, and a highway hub today.

After Atlanta was burned down by General Sherman and his troops in November, the following February, Columbia, the capital of South Carolina and an important political and supply center for the Confederacy, was said to have surrendered to General Sherman on February 17th, 1865, after the Battle of Rivers’ Bridge.

On the same day, the fires started, burning much of Columbia, though there is disagreement between historian regarding whether or not the fires on that day were accidental or intentional, but on the following day, General Sherman’s forces destroyed anything of military value, including railroad depots, warehouses, arsenals, and machine shops.

Were these places specifically targeted for destruction because of their importance as transportation and infrastructure hubs on the energy grid during the historical event known to us as the American Civil War, and not destroyed for the reasons we have always been told?

The Harbor Beach Lighthouse is the next lighthouse we come to going down the Thumb Coast.

The Harbor Beach Lighthouse is called a “sparkplug” lighthouse located on the northern breakwater of the Harbor of Refuge of Harbor Beach on Lake Huron.

In our historical narrative, we are told the breakwater and lighthouse were built by the United States Army Corps of Engineers to protect the harbor here, which is the largest man-made freshwater harbor in the world.

Prior to the 20th-century, this port was the home of one of the most active, life-saving crews on Lake Huron, with dozens of shipwrecks around the area.

Further on down the Thumb Coast from here, we come to the entrance to the St. Clair River and the lighthouses immediately in the greater Port Huron area – the Fort Gratiot Lighthouse, and the historic location of the Peche Island Front Lighthouse, which was destroyed by a fire in 1927.

This is what we are told about Fort Gratiot and the Fort Gratiot Lighthouse in our historical narrative.

Fort Gratiot was said to have been built in 1814 during the War of 1812 to guard the entrance of the St. Clair River at Lake Huron, and named after the engineer in the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers who supervised the construction, Charles Gratiot.

The current Fort Gratiot Lighthouse was said to have been built in 1829, and called the second-oldest lighthouse on the Great Lakes.

The historical figure credited with its construction was Lucius Lyon, one of Michigan’s first senators.

The Fort Gratiot Lighthouse is just to the north of the Blue Water International Bridges which connect Port Huron in Michigan with Point Edward in Ontario, and are jointly-owned and maintained by both countries.

In our historical narrative, the location of the city of Port Huron burned not only in the previously-mentioned September 5th of 1881 Thumb Fire that was the first official disaster relief operation of the American Red Cross less than four months after it was founded on May 21st of 1881, the Huron Fire took place on October 8th of 1871, which burned a total of 1.2-million-acres, of Michigan’s Thumb region.

This was the exact same day as the Great Chicago Fire and the Peshtigo Fire in Wisconsin, as well as two other fires in Michigan – the Manistee Fire and the Holland Fire.

The Huron Fire burned a number of cities including Port Huron and White Rock, as well as much of the countryside of the “Thumb” Region in Michigan.

This is an historic picture of the Port Huron City Hall…

…what we are told started out as a library and is now a museum in Port Huron…

…and the Federal Building and U. S. Courthouse in Port Huron.

Further on downstream from here, we come to a number of lighthouses in the Greater Detroit area, starting with the Peche Island Rear Range Lighthouse, and as we go down the line, the Lake St. Clair Front and Rear Lighthouses; the Lake St. Clair Lighthouse; the Windmill Point Lighthouse; the William Livingstone Memorial Lighthouse; the Grosse Ile Lighthouse; and the Detroit River Lighthouse in Lake Erie at the mouth of the Detroit River.

As we make our way into the major metropolitan area of Detroit, we first come to the Peche Island Rear Range Lighthouse.

We are told that it was originally built in 1908 to work in conjunction with the Peche Island Front Range Lighthouse, and that it was moved in sections to Waterworks Park on the St. Clair River in Marine City, Michigan.

The next lighthouses we come to are the St. Clair Flats South Channel Front and Rear Range Lighthouses.

This is what we are told about them.

It was recognized in the 1830 that a canal through the delta at base of the St. Clair River would be an aid to shipping, and that initially by 1859, the South Channel canal dredging was completed and two lighthouses were built.

Then we are told at the recommendation of the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers, another channel was opened through here between then and 1870, called the St. Clair Flats channel

Then we are told in 1875, the front light began to lean, and there’s a whole lot of stories we are told about these lighthouses ever since then, but that front lighthouse still leans to this day.

The location of the historic Lake St. Clair Lighthouse was in the middle of the lake adjacent to the city of Detroit.

We are told Lake St. Clair was named after St. Clare of Assisi by the French explorer Rene-Robert Cavalier, Sieur de la Salle, on August 12th of 1679, since he discovered it on the same day as her feast day.

The foundation of the current Lake St. Clair lighthouse structure was said to have been constructed as one of FDRs New Deal Public Works Administration projects in 1938.

This was a photo of this particular lighthouse in 1941.

Lake St. Clair has a total surface-area of 430-square-miles, or 1,100-kilometers-squared, and an average-depth of 11-feet, or 4.3-meters, sprawling across the International border with Canada, and through which for more than 100-years, both countries have maintained a 30-foot, or 9.1-meter, deep shipping channel.

Detroit is the largest city in Michigan and the largest U. S. city on the United States – Canada border.

Detroit is the seat of Wayne County. 

This is the old Wayne County Courthouse, which was said to have been constructed between 1897 and 1902.

It is called one of the few survivors of Detroit before it became “Motor City,” and a masterpiece of marble, mahogany, mosaics, sculptures and columns.

The Guardian Building is in downtown Detroit’s Financial District.

It is a landmark skyscraper that was said to have been built between 1928 and 1929 as the Union Trust building, and today serves primarily as the office building for Michigan’s Wayne County.

It was said to have been referred to as the “Cathedral of Finance” due to the building’s resemblance to a cathedral.

The Fisher Building with its distinctively Moorish-looking interior is in what is called the New Center, a commercial and residential historic district in Detroit.

The Fisher Building was said to have been completed in 1928 in the Art Deco Style as a major work of the German-born American architect Albert Kahn…

…and financed by Fisher family by the sale of Fisher Body to General Motors.

The Fisher Building houses the 2,089-seat Fisher Theater…

…the headquarters of the Detroit Public Schools, and the studios of radio stations WJR, WDVD, and WDRQ.

As always, there’s a lot more to find here, but this gives you the idea.

I am going to finish out this post on the Michigan-side of Lake Huron by looking at the other Detroit-area lighthouses – the Windmill Point Lighthouse; the William Livingstone Memorial Lighthouse; the Grosse Ile Lighthouse; and the Detroit River Lighthouse.

The Windmill Point Lighthouse was said have been originally built in 1838 where the Detroit River and Lake St. Clair meet, at the location of marshy and flooded land called Windmill Point after an old stone windmill that was located there.

The current Windmill Point lighthouse was said to have been built in 1933.

The William Livingstone Memorial Lighthouse is described as an Art Deco Lighthouse, said to have been designed by the Hungarian architect Geza Maroti and built by the previously-seen German-born American architect Albert Kahn who was credited with the design of the Fisher Building.

It is the only marble lighthouse in the United States.

It is located on the northeast end of Belle Isle facing Lake St. Clair.

It was named after a Detroit banker, newspaper owner and long-time President of the Lake Carriers Association.

I am going to say a few words about Belle Isle here before I move on to the the Grosse Ile Lighthouse and the Detroit River Lighthouse.

Belle Isle was the location of a historic trolley park known as Electric Park at the end of three streetcar lines – the Myrtle, Fort East, and Crosstown – and was in operation from 1906 to 1928.

The popular amusement and recreational park was located at the foot of the Belle Isle Bridge.

It featured attractions like rides; the Grand Canal; a large windmill; dancing and band pavilions; and a model of the Johnstown Flood.

The Johnstown Flood in Pennsylvania that took place on May 31st of 1889 was the second major disaster the American Red Cross responded to, after the previously-mentioned Great Thumb Fire of 1881.

The Johnstown Flood was caused by the catastrophic failure of the South Fork Dam.

The South Fork Dam was said to have been an earthwork built between 1838 and 1853 as part of a canal system as a reservoir for a canal basin in Johnstown by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.

But then after spending 15-years building the dam, it was abandoned by the Commonwealth, and sold to the Pennsylvania Railroad, who turned around and sold it to private interests.

In 1881, speculators had bought the abandoned reservoir and built a clubhouse called the South Fork Fishing and Hunting Club and cottages, turning it into an exclusive retreat for 61 steel and coal financiers from Pittsburgh, including Andrew Carnegie, Andrew Mellon, Philander Knox, John Leishman, Henry Clay Frick and Daniel Johnson Morrell.

The South Fork Fishing and Hunting Club was a Pennsylvania Corporation and owned the South Fork Dam.

Henry Clay Frick was a founding member of the South Fork Fishing and Hunting Club, and was actually said to have been largely responsible for the alterations to the South Fork Dam that led to its failure.

What we are told was that the dam failed after after days of unusually heavy rain, and 14.3-million-tons of water from Lake Conemaugh, which devastated the South Fork Valley, including Johnstown which was 12-miles, or 19-kilometers, downstream from the dam, killing an estimated 2,209 people and causing $17-million in damages in 1889, which be $490-million in 2020.

Though there were years of claims and litigation, the elite and wealthy members of the South Fork Fishing and Hunting Club were never found liable for damages.

In 1904, the South Fork Fishing and Hunting Club corporation was disbanded and assets sold at a public auction by the sheriff, and there were permanent exhibits in many places, like Atlantic City and Belle Isle, depicting the horrors of the Johnstown Flood experience for public consumption.

Along with exhibits depicting the Johnstown Flood, exhibits about the Galveston Flood were also to be found, like this one at the 1904 St. Louis World’s Fair, said to have resulted from a Hurricane on September 8th of 1900 in our historical narrative, and which has been described as the deadliest natural disaster in United States history.

The Grosse Ile North Channel Front Range Lighthouse is the only historic structure remaining of what were said to have been two sets of range lights on the North Channel and South Channel constructed in the 1890s because of a dangerous obstruction on the east side of Grosse Ile, the largest island in the Detroit River.

Lastly, the Detroit River Lighthouse, which sits in Lake Erie, south of the entrance to the Detroit River.

The Detroit River Lighthouse, also known as the “Bar Point Shoal Lighthouse,” is described as a sparkplug lighthouse that was built in 1885 under problematic circumstances due to its particular location, and its isolation has caused problems ever since in its storied past, including being a rendezvous point for rum-runners in the Prohibition years with the proximity of Canadian whiskey and being struck by a lake freighter directly in 1997, in which the lighthouse suffered minimal damage and the freighter was described as having its “steel bow pushed-in like a tin-can.”

In my next post, I will pick up the Ontario-side of Lake Huron in Windsor, directly across the Detroit River from Detroit.
