In this last part of the series, I will continue in a northeasterly direction along the shore of Lake Erie from Monroe, Michigan, near Toledo, Ohio, to Fort Erie, Ontario, which is directly across the Niagara River from Buffalo, New York, where the parts of this series on Lake Erie began.

So far I have looked in-depth at cities and places on the shores of Lake Superior, Lake Michigan, Lake Huron, Lake Ontario, and Lake Erie.

I have paid particular attention to lighthouses; railroad and streetcar history; waterfalls, wetlands and dunes; interstates and highways; golf courses, airports and race tracks; major corporate players; mines and mining; labor relations; and many other things.

As a way of focusing my research, I am specifically following the location of lighthouses and waterfalls around Lake Erie as a way of focusing my research, as I have been doing throughout this series.

This particular focus has yielded a great deal of information as to what it looks like happened here and about our hidden history.

I believe there was an original free-energy grid that was intentionally destroyed and was a worldwide event, and that the surface of the Earth was subsequently destroyed around its key infrastructure, which included components like lighthouses, rail infrastructure, canals, waterfalls, and what we know of as “forts,” and turned the landscape we see today into lakes, dunes, deserts, swamps, bogs, or causing the land to shear off and/or become submerged.

Before I move on starting with Monroe, I would like to revisit a couple of places from the area surrounding Toledo from the last part of the series.

The first thing I want to talk about this area is in the context of the historic Great Black Swamp.

US Highway Route 20, crosses along northwestern Ohio at the southern shore of Lake Erie where the historical “Great Black Swamp” was located.

The section of US-20 between Perrysburg, Ohio, and Fremont, Ohio, started out as the 31-mile, or 50-kilometer, – long “Maumee & Western Reserve Road,” or “Mud Pike.”

We are told that at the time it was being developed in the late 1700s, what became the “Mud Pike” was the most direct and passable route through what was described as the nearly uninhabitable swampland.

The 1795 Treaty of Greenville at the end of the Northwest Indian War had opened the Northwest Territory for settlement, but the Great Black Swamp stood in the way between the newly acquired Northwest Territory and settlers.

The “Mud Pike” was called the “worst road on the continent” early in its existence for the mud-holes that would trap wagon wheels and draft animals and its slow travel, though it was gradually improved as the swampland was drained in the mid-to-late 19th-century.

I found this newspaper clipping from the Newark Advocate in 1902 in my past research describing a giant skeleton that was found in Bowling Green in northwestern Ohio that was over 8-feet, or 2.5-meters, -tall.

Bowling Green in Ohio is located within the “Great Black Swamp,” between Fort Wayne in Indiana and the southern shore of Lake Erie in northwest Ohio, and is the location of the “Black Swamp Preserve.”

The original Black Swamp was a huge 900,000-acre, or 364,200-hectare, wetland that once covered northwest Ohio, and only a tiny fraction remains today.

The 500-acre, or 202-hectare Black Swamp Preserve in Bowling Green is a protected remnant of the historical swampland, and is accessed by a 13-mile, or 21-kilometer, paved Slippery Elm Trail from Bowling Green to North Baltimore, Ohio.

It is also interesting to note all the historic rail-lines that go through the same area as the Great Black Swamp in Northwest Ohio, circa this 1914 Ohio Public Utilities Commission Railroad map of Ohio, with Bowling Green where the giant skeleton was found circled in red.

The story that accompanies the existence of the railroads is that they were all constructed after the swamp land was drained, and that was what made the construction of the railroads possible.

But I continue to have serious doubts that railroads were constructed by the people who said they built them when they were said to have been built.

My belief falls along the lines that they were already there and being made serviceable once again after the swamp land was drained and/or reclaimed.

The second thing I want to bring forward from the last part on Lake Erie is that Lake Erie is noteworthy for its role during the War of 1812.

It was the location of some battles during the War of 1812 in our narrative, specifically at Fort Stephenson in Fremont and Fort Meigs in Perrysburg, and is noteworthy for the Perry Monument on South Bass Island in Put-in Bay.

First, Fort Stephenson.

Here’s what we are told in our historical narrative, keeping in mind that at the same time in the same narrative, this place was supposed to have been muddy and swampy mess.

Fort Stephenson was first built as a stockade and blockhouse in the late spring of 1812, but was abandoned after Detroit was captured by the British and indigenous forces on August 13th of 1812, and was burned to the ground shortly thereafter.

Then in preparation for a campaign to retake Detroit and advance into Upper Canada, several forts were constructed in the area by the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers in 1813, including the rebuilding and expansion of Fort Stephenson and the construction of Fort Meigs.

Then the Battle of Fort Stephenson took place on August 2nd of 1813, in which a small American force numbering 160 guarding the fort defeated a much larger number of 1,300 British and indigenous forces.

The American victory here was said to have helped secure American control in northern Ohio.

The cannon from the battle, named “Old Betsy,” was said to have been recovered and is on display at the Birchard Library in Fremont.

The Birchard Library is located on the grounds of the former fort in Fremont, and said to have been built between 1877 and 1879.

Next, Fort Meigs was on the Maumee River in the Perrysburg-area.

In this instance, the British and Indigenous forces failed to capture Fort Meigs in two sieges that took place during the spring and summer of 1813 , which had just been built earlier that same year.

Fort Meigs subsequently became the main American stronghold in the Northwest.

The location of Fort Meigs was just across the Maumee River from the ruins of what we are told was the old British Fort Miami and the site of the 1794 Battle of Fallen Timbers, which was the final battle of the Northwest Indian War.

This is what we are told about the Northwest Indian War in our historical narrative.

The Northwest Indian War took place in this region between 1786 and 1795 between the United States and the Northwestern Confederacy, consisting of Native Americans 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 American Revolutionary War.

The area had previously been prohibited to new settlements, and was inhabited by numerous Native American peoples.

The British maintained a military presence and supported the Native American military campaign.

While the Northwestern Confederacy had some early victories, they were ultimately defeated, with the final battle being the “Battle of Fallen Timbers” in August of 1794 in Maumee, Ohio, which took place after General Anthony Wayne’s Army had destroyed every Native American settlement on its way to the battle.

Outcomes were the 1794 Jay Treaty, named for Supreme Court Chief Justice John Jay, the main negotiator with Great Britain.

We are told that as a result, the British withdrew from the Northwest Territory, but it laid the groundwork for later conflicts, not only with Great Britain, but also angering France and bitterly dividing Americans into pro-Treaty Federalists and anti-Treaty Jeffersonian Republicans.

The 1795 Greenville Treaty that followed forced the displacement of Native Americans from most of Ohio, in return for cash and promises of fair treatment, and the land was opened for white American settlement.

At any rate with regards to Fort Meigs and Fort Miami, I typically find star forts in pairs and clusters, which also aligns with the definition of the word battery related to “a device that produces electricity; may have several primary or secondary cells arranged in parallel or series.”

Fort Meigs was also the location where the Treaty of Fort Meigs, also called the Treaty of the Maumee Rapids, was signed on September 29th of 1817, and said to be the most significant Indian Treaty in Ohio since the Treaty of Greenville in 1795.

It resulted in the ceding of nearly all the remaining lands in northwestern Ohio, and parts of Indiana and Michigan, of the Wyandot, Seneca, Delaware, Shawnee, Potawatomi, Ottawa, and Chippewa, helping to open up Michigan to settlement by white Americans.

In return, land was allocated for reservations and financial compensation via annuities of various amounts for different lengths of time.

Lewis Cass was one of two commissioners who negotiated the treaty on behalf of the U. S. Government.

We are told that during the War of 1812, Lewis Cass rose through the officer ranks to become a Brigadier General in the U. S. Army in March of 1813.

Lastly, the Perry’s Victory and International Peace Memorial is found on an isthmus on South Bass Island.

The world’s tallest Doric Column, it was said to have been constructed by a multi-state commission between 1912 and 1915 after having been selected as the winning design from an international competition.

According to our historical narrative, the memorial was established to celebrate long-lasting peace between the United States, Great Britain, and Canada and honor Commodore Oliver Hazard Perry, who successfully commanded the U. S. Navy ships in the Battle of Lake Erie during the War of 1812.

In our historical narrative, the Battle of Lake Erie, also known as the Battle of Put-in Bay, was fought on September 10th of 1813, and in which nine ships of the U. S. Navy captured six ships of the British Navy, ensuring American control of Lake Erie for the rest of the War of 1812.

The Battle of the River Raisin during the War of 1812 took place in what became Monroe, Michigan.

The Battle of the River Raisin, also known as the Battle of Frenchtown, and the River Raisin Massacre.

It refers to two consecutive engagements during the War of 1812 that took place on January 18th and 22nd of 1813 in Frenchtown in the Michigan Territory, the former name of Monroe.

In our historical narrative on January 18th, American militia forced a retreat of a British and indigenous detachment occupying Frenchtown.

Four days after that, British and indigenous forces launched a surprise counterattack, in which 397 American troops were killed and 547 taken prisoner and taken to Fort Amherstburg (AKA Fort Malden) in Amherstburg, Ontario on the Detroit River, which I will talk more about later in this post.

We are told the Battle of the River Raisin was the deadliest conflict recorded on Michigan soil and represents the highest number of Americans killed in a single battle during the War of 1812.

It is interesting to note that there are three sets of railroad tracks altogether on either side of the historic location of this Battle of the War of 1812.

I will come back to what is in Monroe in the area surrounding this location shortly.

Monroe is the only Michigan city situated directly on Lake Erie’s western shore, and is the only deep-water Michigan port on Lake Erie.

It is 17-miles, or 27-kilometers, north of Toledo, and 35-miles, or 56-kilometers, south of Detroit.

Lake Erie is the fourth-largest Great Lake by surface volume, but the shallowest and smallest by volume of the five lakes, and has an average depth of 63-feet, or 19-meters, and is divided into three basins – Western, Central, and Eastern.

This part of Lake Erie is in the Western Basin, which is quite shallow, with depths ranging throughout from 0- to -10-meters, or 33-feet.

It is particularly susceptible to pollution, algae blooms, and other invasive species like carp and mussels.

The Eastern Basin is the deepest, with depths ranging from 0- to 64-meters, or 0- to 210-feet, where the deepest point of Lake Erie is marked by an “X” circled in red, making it the only Great Lake whose deepest point is above sea-level.

The depth contrast of the shallow western-end and the deep eastern-end results in a phenomenon known as a “seiche,” which happens when strong winds push the lake water east, causing the water to pile up, and then drain, and which Lake Erie is more prone to than the other Great Lakes.

A “seiche” is the name for a standing wave in an enclosed, or partially-enclosed, body of water.

The seiches of Lake Erie are known to drain water out of one end of the lake and cause extreme flooding at the other end.

Lake Erie is also the warmest of the Great Lakes because it is the shallowest, and frequently reaches peak water temperatures in the 70 to 80-degree Fahrenheit-range, or upper 20-degree-Celsius-range, in the summer months of July and August, and more during heat waves.

The Lake Erie Region is known as the “Thunderstorm Capital of Canada” as well, with impressive displays of lightning.

The relatively shallow waters found throughout the Great Lakes are notorious for shipwrecks, with an estimated somewhere between 6,000 to 10,000 ships and somewhere around 30,000 lives lost.

Lake Erie has one of the highest concentrations of shipwrecks anywhere on Earth, with an estimated 2,000 sunken vessels and only 400 of those have been discovered.

The Erie Marsh Preserve is south of Monroe and north of Toledo on North Maumee Bay, and is one of the largest coastal wetlands on Lake Erie.

It is to the west of the Turtle Island Lighthouse and the Toledo Harbor Lighthouse, and to the southwest of the Luna Pier Lighthouse.

The Lost Peninsula on Maumee Bay is south of the Erie Marsh Preserve.

The Toledo Harbor Lighthouse is described as a “Romanesque-looking structure” that stands 64-feet, or 20-meters, -tall at the entrance to Toledo Shipping Channel.

It was said to have been built between 1901 and 1904 to replace the 1837 Turtle Island lighthouse.

The Toledo Harbor Lighthouse’s original 3.5-Order Fresnel lens is on display at the Maumee Bay State Park Lodge.

In a Fresnel Lens, hundreds of pieces of specially-cut glass surround a lamp bulb, which intensifies the glow from the light and focuses rays of light that would normally be scattered into one intense beam of light that shines in a specific direction.

The Fresnel Lens could also produce an unlimited number of flashing combinations with an intensified light that could be seen at great distances.

Of the more than 200 lighthouses across the Great Lakes and St. Lawrence River region, out of an original estimated 350 to 400 lighthouses, only sixteen have their original Fresnel Lens’, like the Dunkirk Lighthouse on Lake Erie not far from the Greater Buffalo-area.

The third-order Fresnel Lens at the Dunkirk Lighthouse is currently valued at USD $1.5-million.

The historic Turtle Island Lighthouse is described as a deactivated and ruined lighthouse on a privately-owned island in Lake Erie on the border between Ohio and Michigan near Toledo.

We are told it was established in 1831 to guide ships into Maumee Bay and abandoned after the construction of the Toledo Harbor Lighthouse.

The Luna Pier Lighthouse is at Luna Pier, which is in the State of Michigan.

It is described as a 35-foot, or 11-meter, -tall decorative beacon that was constructed in 2012 to serve as a non-navigational scenic landmark at the entrance to the Luna Pier.

Though references to it are hard-to-find, I did find one saying that the current Luna Pier Lighthouse was designed to evoke an earlier lighthouse associated with Luna Pier.

Luna Pier has a crescent-shaped concrete pier that extends for 800-feet, or 240-meters, reaching about 200-feet, or 61-meters, into Lake Erie.

Luna Pier used to be served by the Canadian National Railway via coal trains that served the J. R. Whiting Generating Plant, which closed in April of 2016 and which has since been demolished.

The J. R. Whiting Generating Plant first opened in 1952, so it was only in use for 64-years.

The Erie Marsh Preserve is located in North Maumee Bay and at over 2,000-acres, or over 800-hectares, in size is one of the largest marshes on Lake Erie.

It represents 11% of southeastern Michigan’s remaining marshland.

It supports migratory and nesting birds of all kinds, and is open to the public from January 2nd to August 31st.

The Lost Peninsula just to the south of there is called a small “exclave” of the State of Michigan as it is surrounded by the State of Ohio.

We are told the “Lost Peninsula” was created as a result of the “Toledo War,” which was a boundary dispute in 1835 and 1836 over whether or not Ohio or Michigan would control an area called the “Toledo Strip.”

After the “Toledo War,” the state border was established just north of the mouth of the Maumee River, at the 41-Degree, 44-Minute North line-of-latitude.

This gave the city of Toledo and Maumee River to the State of Ohio, but the state line continued across the smaller Ottawa River, and divided the peninsula on the far-side of the river.

This resulted in a division of the land in which the “Lost Peninsula” became part of the State of Michigan.

Coincidentally…or not…the 41-Degree, 44-Minute North line-of-latitude was historically significant as the reported position of the “Titanic” when it sank.

The “Lost Peninsula” has a population of somewhere between 100 and 200 people.

It is part of Erie Township, Michigan, and residents must travel through Ohio to get to Michigan, including students for public school attendance.

I keep encountering and documenting historic trolley parks all along the shores of the Great Lakes.

This area in western Lake Erie was no exception, and was also the location of several historic trolley parks, like the Toledo Beach Amusement Park, a short way up the shore of Lake Erie from Toledo in Ohio, before you get to Monroe in Michigan.

We are told the Toledo Light Rail and Power Company bought the Ottawa Beach Resort in 1907, and created the Toledo Beach Amusement Park, and an electric trolley service brought visitors from Ohio into the park.

The trolley also made stops at Lakeside, Lakewood, Allen’s Cove, and Luna Pier along the way to Toledo Beach, the end, also known as terminal, of the streetcar line.

There are two definitions of terminal.

One is: “The end of a railroad or other transport route, or a station at such a point.”

The other is: “A point of connection for closing an electric circuit.”

We are told that the peak of the popularity of the Toledo Beach Park was in the early 1900s, and that attendance slowly declined after the electric interurban trolleys stopped running in 1927.

The Toledo Beach Park had its ups-and-downs over the years, having been shut down during hard economic times, until the amusement park was purchased in 1961 for the land on which the buyer wanted to build a marina.

The Toledo Beach Amusement park was dredged, and the Toledo Park Marina was built and opened in 1962.

Heading into Monroe from the area of the historic Toledo Beach Amusement Park, we first come to the Bolles Harbor Light, and then in the area surrounding the River Raisin National Battlefield Park, we come to the Monroe Power Plant; the Gerdau Special Steel plant; the Detroit River International Wildlife Refuge; and the William C. Sterling State Park.

First, the Bolles Harbor Light.

We are told that Bolles Harbor was an artificial recreational harbor that was constructed in the 1960s, and that the entrance to it had to be dredged through shallow Lake Erie Waters.

The Bolles Harbor Light is a modern navigational beacon that marks the entrance to Bolles Harbor about 7 miles, or 11-kilometers, south of Monroe at the entrance to La Plaisance Creek.

Bolles Harbor is used for recreational boating.

There are two range lights here as well that are skeletal structures for guiding boats into Bolles Harbor.

There were historic lighthouses here that are no longer standing.

We are told that Monroe’s first lighthouse was built at Otter Creek Point in 1828 marking the original River Raisin entrance.

Then it was decommissioned in 1849 when shipping lanes shifted and dismantled in 1870.

The Monroe Pierhead lighthouse was said to have been first established in 1849; first lit in 1884; deactivated in 1916 and eventually destroyed.

On the lakefront to the north of the Bolles Harbor Light and the east of the River Raisin National Battlefield Site, we find the Monroe Power Plant; the Gerdau Special Steel plant; the Detroit River International Wildlife Refuge; and the William C. Sterling State Park.

The Monroe Power Plant and Gerdau Special Steel Plant are located right next to each other, with the Detroit River International Wildlife Refuge located right across the entrance to the River Raisin from them.

The Monroe Power Plant is a coal-fired power plant owned by Detroit-based DTE Energy.

Operations began here in 1971, and it has four generating units.

It is the 11th-largest electric plant in the United States.

The Gerdau Special Steel Plant in Monroe is a key facility for Gerdau Special Steel in North America.

It specializes in producing high-quality Special Bar Quality steel for the automotive, commercial vehicle, agricultural and energy markets.

The Detroit River International Wildlife Refuge is the only international wildlife refuge in North America, managed jointly by the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the Canadian Wildlife Service.

It consists primarily of coastal wetlands, several islands in the Detroit River, and waterfront parks.

The Refuge’s Eagle Island Marsh is next to the River Raisin entrance.

It provides important habitat for hundreds of bald eagles that winter here every year.

The River Raisin National Battlefield Park is to the northwest of the Eagle Island Marsh, and the William C. Sterling State Park is to the north of it.

The Monroe Golf & Country Club is further west across the railroad tracks from these locations.

This is what we are told about the William C. Sterling State Park.

It is the only Michigan State Park located on Lake Erie.

It encompasses 1,300-acres, or 530-hectares, of mostly manmade lagoons and beachfront near the mouth of Sandy Creek.

It was named after the businessman who bought marshland at the mouth of the Detroit Rvier who was one of the first to see the value of protecting swamps for future generations.

For a number of years, the Sterling State Park was polluted by river runoff from Detroit.

Millions of dollars were spent to clean-up the area from decades of pollutants from the Detroit River.

The Monroe Golf & Country Club is a semi-private golf club that was established in 1919.

It features an 18-hole golf course, and what we are told was an 1884 Victorian Mansion.

I have consistently found golf courses, country clubs, and railroad tracks near the shores of the Great Lakes.

For one of many examples, and this one is also on Lake Erie, the Wanakah Country Club is in- between New York Route 5, otherwise known as the Seaway Trail, and the railroad tracks going through the area, and the Cloverbank Country Club is on the other side of the tracks from it.

I  have been talking throughout this series, and in other places before that, about golf courses being cover-ups of mound, or earthwork, sites and part of the original energy grid.

 Just carve out the top of a mound, and voila, you have a bunker.

The term “Links” is another name used for golf courses.

I think this name tells us their actual purpose in the Earth’s grid system, perhaps as “links” or “linkages” of the circuitry of electrical and magnetic components.

I have been finding golf courses throughout this series, like along the shoreline of Lake Huron like these examples…

…and like this example on both sides of the Niagara River on Lake Ontario.

As we are heading into the Detroit-area from Monroe, we next come to the Enrico Fermi Nuclear Generating Station; the Point Mouillee State Game Area; and the Detroit River Lighthouse.

First, the Enrico Fermi Nuclear Generating Station.

It is located on 1,000-acres, or 400-hectares, of land near Monroe in French Charter Township, Michigan.

The plant is named after the Italian nuclear physicist Enrico Fermi, most noted in our historical narrative for his work on the first nuclear reactor and other major contributions to nuclear physics, and winning the 1938 Nobel Prize in Physics.

There are a couple of things I would like to make note of here.

The first thing is that I consistently find nuclear power plants in or near wetlands, and this is not an isolated finding by any means.

The second thing I would like to make note of here is that this is the sixth nuclear power plant that I have come across while doing this Great Lakes series, and all have been right on the lakeshore of their respective Great Lakes.

There was one in the last part of the series on Lake Erie, which was the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Plant.

It is located on the southwest shore of Lake Erie, about 10-miles, or 16-kilometers, north of Oak Harbor, Ohio.

It is situated next to the Ottawa National Wildlife Refuge, and the Magee Marsh Wildlife Area .

It has been the site of several safety incidents, including two of the top five most dangerous nuclear incidents in the U. S since 1979.

It was expected to close in 2020, but remains operational as a result of state legislation that was passed in 2019.

So, was there actually a conscious decision made to build nuclear powerplants in marshy wetlands?

Or were nuclear powerplants also pre-existing technology that was brought back on-line in the present-day, and not operated safely or cautiously?

The Perry Nuclear Power Plant is also on Lake Erie, and located 40-miles, or 64-kilometers, northeast of Cleveland.

The other three I have encountered were the Darlington Nuclear Power Station in Bowmanville, Ontario, on Lake Ontario; the Nine-Mile Point Nuclear Power Station near Oswego, New York, on Lake Ontario; and the Bruce Nuclear Power Plant in Kincardine, Ontario, on Lake Huron.

The unincorporated community of Detroit Beach is located in-between Sterling State Park and the Enrico Fermi Nuclear Generating Station.

It was established in 1932 as a lakeside resort community to attract vacation-home buyers from Detroit.

It is centered around boating and fishing, and is not known for being a large public swimming beach, for which most go to the nearby Sterling State Park.

The Point Mouillee State Game Area and the Detroit River Lighthouse are to the northeast of the Enrico Fermi Nuclear Generating Station.

The Point Mouillee State Game Area is a protected wildlife and wetland area at the mouth of the Huron River at Lake Erie.

It contains an extensive mix of coastal marshes; managed wetlands; shallow bays; dikes and impoundments; and grasslands.

It is considered one of the largest freshwater marsh restoration projects in North America.

It is also widely regarded as one of the best places in the Midwest for bird-watching and waterfowl-hunting.

What is known as “The Banana” at this location is described as a large, curved, diked island just off-shore of the main marsh.

It was said to have been originally built by the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers as a “Confined Disposal Facility” for dredged sediment from the Detroit River Shipping Channel.

These days it provides access to portions of the interior marsh via the dike system, and it is also managed as a waterfowl refuge.

The area is also a productive fishery.

The nearby 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.

We are told 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.”

Moving northward from the Pointe Mouillee State Game Area, on the Michigan-side, we come to the Lake Erie Metropark and its golf course; the City of Gibraltar; the Humbug Marsh; and what’s found on Grosse Ile, the largest island in the Detroit river.

First, the Lake Erie Metropark and its golf course.

The Lake Erie Metropark is a park in the Huron-Clinton system of metro parks, which includes 13 parks totaling more than 24,000-acres, or 97-kilometers-squared, arranged along the Huron and Clinton Rivers, forming a partial ring around the Detroit metropolitan area.

The Lake Erie Metropark is located between the mouth of the Huron River and Lake Erie to the South, and the city of Gibraltar to the North. and consists of marshes, recreational trails, a marina and boat launch.

Since 2020, the wave action swimming pool here has not been in operation, and is currently undergoing a major renovation.

There is an 18-hole regulation golf course here that features rolling Bent Grass fairways and 20-acres, or 8-hectares, of water hazards that test precision on nearly every hole.

The Lake Erie Metropark Marshland Museum and Nature Center is also found here, which showcases the heritage of the Downriver/Lake Erie Shore Region.

The City of Gibraltar is located in-between the Lake Erie Metropark and the Humbug Marsh.

Gibraltar is a downriver suburb of Detroit, located 22-miles, or 35-kilometers, southwest of downtown Detroit.

As of the 2020 census, it had a population of just under 5,000 people.

Gibraltar was first settled in 1811 and platted in March of 1837 by the Gibraltar and Flat Rock Company, which we are told was an historic company attempting to build a canal to connect Lake Erie to the Huron river, which was a venture we are told ultimately failed.

Gibraltar is known for its waterfront lifestyle, with over 5-miles, or 8-kilometers, of canals. wetlands, and access to the Detroit River and Lake Erie, making it a prime destination for boating and fishing access.

I consistently find S-shaped river bends like the one pictured here in Gibraltar all over the Earth.

Viktor Schauberger, an Austrian scientist, was a pioneer in the field of water and energy research in the early 20th-century, specializing in the flow of water and natural energies.

Between 1928 and 1935, he worked on developing a device for the production of living water, water with an enhanced structure and necessary minerals.

Schauberger conceptualized that the twisting and turning motions of this water flow energized water, .

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

The original rivers, rail-lines and canals would have been providing hydroelectric power for the free-energy system, and the original architecture and infrastructure would have provided the antiquitech to process and utilize the free energy throughout the worldwide system.

The City of Gibraltar Municipal Complex is interesting in that it features a lighthouse as part of the complex.

The complex houses things like City Hall; the Fire Station and Police Department.

It was said to have been built to replace the old City Hall, which was housed in a one-room schoolhouse and demolished in 1935.

Interesting to note that available public sources consistently described it as a replacement for the old city hall building, but do not state the exact year the new municipal complex was completed.

The Village of Flat Rock, 5-miles, or 8-kilometers, due west of Gibraltar was platted by the Gibraltar and Flat Rock Company in 1838.

We are told that Henry Ford was attracted by the water power of the Huron River, and established the Ford Motor Company Lamp Factory in Flat Rock for making headlights in 1925, one of Ford’s “Village Industries” that employed local people and supplied parts and equipment.

It was powered by hydroelectric turbines on the Huron River.

Albert Kahn, who was credited with the design of the headlight factory, was also credited with the design of the Fisher Building in Detroit in the Art Deco Style, said to have been completed in 1928.

The Fisher Building with its distinctively Moorish-looking interior with high-vaulted ceilings is in what is called the New Center, a commercial and residential historic district in Detroit.

The Canadian National (CN) – Flat Rock Railroad Yard is to the northeast of Flat Rock, and the Flat Rock Speedway is to the southwest.

The CN-Flat Rock Yard is one of the Canadian Railroad’s most important rail facilities in southeastern Michigan, located near downtown Flat Rock.

It serves as a major freight classification and rail operations yard and crew base for trains moving between Detroit, Toledo, Chicago, Canada, and the U. S. Midwest.

We are told that it was historically built by the Detroit, Toledo & Ironton Railroad (DT & I) in the early 20th-century.

Under the ownership of Henry Ford starting in 1920, DT & I expanded the yard into a modern classification facility to support the movement of raw materials and finished automobiles to Ford plants through southeast Michigan.

Historically, there was a roundhouse here, and like pretty much everywhere else, the roundhouse is long-gone.

What we are told is that large roundhouses became far less necessary as diesel locomotives replaced steam in the 1950s, and the roundhouses were no longer needed for routine operation.

Diesel locomotives replaced steam trains primarily between 1940 and 1960.

Interesting to note that locomotives were originally-powered by steam, and in our historical narrative were first introduced in the United Kingdom in 1804,

They were fueled by burning combustible material like coal, coke, oil or wood to heat water in the locomotive’s boiler.

Here’s one that is pretty typical of what we would normally think of a steam locomotive.

Here’s another steam locomotive that looks pretty darn sleek, futuristic and high-tech.

It is called the Mallard Steam locomotive.

It was said to have been created by the prominent engineer Sir Nigel Gresley for the London and North Eastern Railway, and built in 1938.

On July 3rd of 1938, the Mallard broke the still-standing world record for steam locomotives at 126-mph, or 203 km/h.

It was retired in 1963, and is preserved in the National Railway Collection in York as part of the National Collection.

I think that steam and hydroelectric power were part of the free-energy technology of the original grid system and that this was one of the original steam locomotives in use prior to the destruction of the grid, and not built when it was said to have been built and by whom.

At any rate, for whatever the reason, the roundhouses they were demolished, and I strongly suspect it’s not what we’ve been told, roundhouses are no longer in existence, except in rare instances where they are museums and parks, like the B & O Railroad Museum in Baltimore, Maryland; and Roundhouse Park in Toronto, Ontario, which was formerly the John Street Roundhouse, and which contains the Toronto Railway Museum.

It’s important to note that Henry Ford utilized the practice of “vertical integration” in the Ford Motor Company.

Vertical integration is where the supply chain of a company is owned by the company.

The introduction and refinement of the assembly line facilitated the mass production of new cars, which in turn made the purchase of a new car affordable for most people.

I believe this was another replacement technology for the original transportation system that was powered by free energy.

Henry Ford was the 13th-wealthiest American of all-time according to CNN Business, with an adjusted wealth of $67.2-billion.

Henry Ford was also an acknowledged 33rd-degree Freemason.

Also interesting to note that another extremely wealthy businessman and entrepreneur who practiced vertical integration was Adolphus Busch, President of the Anheuser-Busch Brewing Company from 1880 until his death in 1913.

Adolphus Busch was a pioneer in refrigeration and pasteurization, and like Henry Ford, he bought all the components of his business, from bottling factories to ice-manufacturing plants to buying the rights from Rudolf Diesel to manufacture all diesel engines in America.

The Anheuser-Busch Company owned the Manufacturers Railway Company, which was founded by Adolphus Busch in 1887, and operated until 2011.

It was created to transport brewery products and provide rail connections and locomotive maintenance.

When Adolphus Busch died in 1913, his net worth was $60 million.

While I couldn’t find any information showing that Adolphus Busch was a Freemason like I did Henry Ford, I did find this goat mug that was made in 1994 by Anheuser-Busch for the Freemasons of Rio Negrinho in Brazil, featuring a life-like goat-head, and the Portuguese words for “Liberty, Equality, and Fraternity” in the base.

Similarly, John Molson was a brewer and entrepreneur in colonial Quebec and Lower Canada.

Molson’s beer was in high demand, which was said to have appealed to different classes of Montreal Society, with customers increasing every day.

Between 1788 and 1800, his business quickly grew into one of the larger ones in Lower Canada, having sold 30,000 gallons, or 113,500-liters, of beer by 1791.

As his wealth grew, he started branching out into financing other interests, like the railroad.

Molson was credited with financing the first public railway in Canada, the Champlain & St. Lawrence Railway, which was chartered in 1832 and built in 1835 in our historical narrative.

He was appointed the Provincial Grand Master of the District Freemasonic Lodge of Montreal by the Duke of Sussex in 1826, a position he held for five years before resigning in 1831.

Next, the Flat Rock Speedway is in Ash Township, to the southwest of downtown Flat Rock.

It is a 1/4-mile, or 402-meter, oval race-track owned by NASCAR, and the closest NASCAR-style oval racing track circuit to Detroit.

It features racing on Saturday nights that include Outlaw Body Late Models; Street Stocks; and Figure 8’s for its weekly division.

I have come to see racing tracks as circuitry that was on the Earth’s original energy grid system as a result of my research over the years, and I think these different types of racing tracks were originally circuits on the grid.

The sport of racing uses the word “circuit” in the following ways:

The course over which races are run…

…the number of times the racers go around the track…

…an established itinerary of racing events involving public performance…

…and in bicycle racing, a circuit race is a mass-start road-cycle race that consists of several laps of a closed-circuit, where the length of the lap is slightly longer each time.

Electrical Circuit definitions include:

A closed path in which electrons from a voltage or current source flow, and includes devices that give energy to the charged particles the current is comprised of, such as batteries and generators…

…devices that use current, like lamps, electric motors, and computers…

…and the connecting wires or transmission lines.

An electronic circuit is a complete course of conductors through which current can travel, and provide a path for current to flow. 

So with regards to the possibility that elliptical tracks, for example, were circuitry on the Earth’s original energy grid, when I investigated elliptical circuitry in past research, I came across elliptical PADS in Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs).

PADS are an electrical connection point for components, and most carry current for either signal transfer or heat.

I also found the term “Elliptical Polarization,” which occurs when there is more than one source of a magnetic field at the same frequency, the magnetic field traces out an ellipse in space.

Then there are elliptical antenna for things like satellite dishes…

…and Ultra Wide-Band communications.

Next, I am going to talk about the Humbug Marsh and several places on Grosse Ile, which is located on the Michigan-side of the Detroit River.

First, the Humbug Marsh.

The Humbug Marsh straddles the boundary-line between Gibraltar and Trenton.

The Humbug Marsh is part of the previously-mentioned Detroit River International Wildlife Refuge.

It is located on the “Downriver” shoreline of the Detroit River.

“Downriver” is a region of the Detroit Metropolitan Area along or near the western shore of the Detroit River.

This location consists of 410-acres, or 165-hectares, of undeveloped mainland shoreline along the United States-side of the Detroit River.

The remnant marsh here is classified as a place of importance to threatened, endangered, and vulnerable species and ecological communities.

It features old-growth trees over 300-years-old, with over 32-acres, or 13-hectares, recognized by the “Old-Growth Forest Network.”

The Humbug Marsh was formally-designated in 2010 as Michigan’s first wetland of International Importance under the Ramsar Convention.

I first became aware of the Ramsar Convention when I was tracking a long-distance alignment through the Strait of Hormuz between the Gulf of Oman and the Persian Gulf.

The Ramsar Convention is an international treaty that was first signed in February of 1971 in Ramsar, Iran, and is reviewed every three-years by the contracting international parties.

It designated sites, known as “Ramsar Sites,” to be considered of international importance when it comes to the conservation and sustainable use of wetlands.

As one example, the United Arab Emirates, or UAE, as a whole has eight Ramsar wetlands sites.

Interesting to note that the UAE is mostly a desert country with approximately 80% of its landmass covered by desert.

The Ramsar Convention defines wetlands as “areas of marsh, fen, peat, or water, whether natural or artificial, permanent or temporary, with water that is static or flowing, fresh, brackish or salt, including areas of marine water the depth of which at low tide, does not exceed 20-feet, or 6-meters.

The HyCAL Corp. and two more railyards in Trenton are near Humbug Marsh, besides the Flat Rock Railyard – the CN Edison and the CN Rodney Yards.

The HyCAL Corp. and CN Edison Yard are adjacent to the Humbug Marsh.

The HyCAL Corp. is a specialized metal-processing manufacturer.

It operates North America’s only 100% hydrogen annealing line, providing advanced, high-strength steels for the automotive industry.

The CN Edison Yard is a small operational rail facility serving local industrial rail traffic on the CN Shoreline Subdivision, which handles freight movements running parallel to the Detroit River Corridor.

It is named the “Edison” yard because of its historic proximity to the massive Detroit – Edison (DTE) coal-burning Trenton Channel Power Plant operations on the Detroit River, which was in operation from 1924 until 2022, and the facility was demolished in 2024.

The land is currently being transformed into the Trenton Channel Energy Center, designed as a 220-megawatt lithium-ion battery storage facility, with completion expected in late 2026.

It is described as the largest standalone battery project in the Great Lakes Region, capable of powering an estimated 40,000 homes.

The Trenton Engine Plant is also in this location.

The Trenton Engine Complex is a Stellantis North America Factory complex.

Stellantis was formerly known as Chrysler.

There are two plants here, and both manufacture Pentastar V2 and V6 engines.

There a couple of places I would like to note between here and the CN Rodney Yard – in particular Elizabeth Park in Trenton, and the three golf courses directly across the Trenton Channel of the Detroit River from here on Grosse Ile.

Elizabeth Park is recognized as the first County Park in the State of Michigan, having been given to Wayne County in 1919 from private owners.

The park is located on an artificial island called “Slocum’s Island.”

The island is separated from the mainland by a narrow canal, with Elizabeth Park on the north-end, and the location of the historic Trenton Channel Power Plant in the process of becoming the Trenton Channel Energy Center on the south-end of Slocum Island, south of the Grosse Ile Parkway across the Wayne County Bridge.

There are three golf courses on Grosse Ile directly across from here – the Water’s Edge; Grosse Ile Golf & Country Club; and the West Shore Golf & Country Club.

The Wayne County Bridge, also known as the “Free Bridge,” is a swing-bridge that pivots on a center pier.that connects Grosse Ile to Trenton, Michigan.

It was previously a rail-bridge that we are told was converted by Wayne County into a vehicular, bike, and pedestrian bridge in 1931, which would have been during the Great Depression.

I can’t help but wonder if “artificial island” is a code-word for sunken infrastructure.

We are told the rail bridge was built by the Canada Southern Bridge Company in 1873, and that the rail-tracks across Grosse Ile were replaced by the Grosse Ile Parkway, which runs adjacent to the Water’s Edge Golf Course and the Grosse Ile Golf & Country Club.

Elizabeth Park is the location of an historic marker commemorating the Battle of Monguagon, which took place during the War of 1812 in our historical narrative between Americans and a British-Indian coalition in August of 1812.

We are told that it was the first encounter of the War of 1812 that was large enough to be called a battle.

Next up, the CN Rodney Yard in Trenton.

The CN Rodney Yard serves as a vital rail junction on CN’s Shoreline Subdivision, where it connects with the Flat Rock Subdivision running west towards the major Flat Rock Yard.

It is a crucial control point and connection switch where freight and local transfers transition between lines.

It was the location of the historic FN Tower, a classic railroad interlocking tower where the Detroit, Toledo and Detroit Shoreline tracks crossed.

We are told the FN Tower was demolished in 2005 because it became obsolete when manned railroad control towers were replaced by modern centralized traffic control.

I just want to make note before I move across to Grosse Ile that there are A LOT of railyards along both the United States and Canadian-sides of the border between Lake Huron and Lake Erie, which consists of not only the Detroit River, but also Lake St. Clair, and the St. Clair River between Lake Huron and Lake St. Clair.

Detroit is the end-terminal for most domestic traffic arriving there, much of which is automotive industry-related, and is also an international gateway for transcontinental traffic from the western United States and Canada to Toronto, Montreal, and the Maritime Provinces.

As I have already asserted in this post, it is my belief that all the rail infrastructure was a pre-existing energy technology, and I would surmise that this region was an extremely important nexus on the original energy grid.

Here’s just one example I encountered from “North America’s Great Lakes – Part 4 The Ontario-side of Lake Huron,” which is the Canadian National Railway’s St. Clair River Railway Tunnel, located about 60-miles, or 100-kilometers, northeast of the Detroit-Windsor area.

It connects the Sarnia Railyards with the Port Huron Railyards via an underwater railroad tunnel that can accommodate double-stacked railcars.

The first tunnel here was said to have opened in 1891, and that it was the first full-sized underwater tunnel in North America.

It was considered an engineering marvel in its day and has been designated as a civil engineering landmark by U. S. and Canadian engineering bodies.

The original tunnel was said to have been replaced in 1995, when a second tunnel opened that could handle railcars with double-stacked shipping containers.

In June of 2019, forty railcars derailed in the tunnel, spilling 13,700-gallons, or 52,000-liters, of sulfuric acid, which resulted in the closure of the tunnel for about two-weeks.

Sulfuric acid is used in chemical and fertilizer manufacture; petroleum refining; battery production; cleaning agents and explosives.

These kinds of environmental disasters are actually quite common and I am comfortable speculating that there may be more to their occurrence than random chance.

Next I am going to head over to Grosse Ile, the largest island in the Detroit River, and a residential township of between 10,000 and 11,000 people in Wayne County, Michigan.

It is considered one of the Downriver communities south of Detroit.

Besides the Wayne County Bridge, also known as the “Free Bridge,” a swing-bridge that connects Grosse Ile to Trenton, Michigan, around the center of the island, the Grosse Ile Toll Bridge is also a swing bridge that connects the Grosse Ile at the northern end to the mainland at Riverview, Michigan.

The Grosse Ile Toll Bridge was said to have been financed, designed and constructed between 1912 and 1913 by the Grosse Ile Bridge Company, or GIBC, which was established as a Michigan Corporation and bridge company on May 1st of 1912.

Its primary incorporator, majority shareholder, and founding President was Grosse Ile landowner Edward W. Voigt.

We are told the bridge was opened to the general public on November 27th of 1913 and that the toll bridge was the first automobile bridge to the island at a time when the island’s population was less than 1,000.

Ownership of the Grosse Ile Toll Bridge was transferred from the GIBC to the Grosse Isle Township on March 31st of 2025.

It is interesting to note that Riverview was the location of a Nike Missile Launch site, designated site “D-54,” during the Cold War.

The Nike Missile Launch Site was located on what is now Young Patriot’s Park and the Integrated Fire Control, or IFC, for it was located at what is now the Rivergate Nursing Home and Terrace.

The Riverview Highlands Golf Course is just a short distance south of there.

Hennepin Point at the northern end of Grosse Ile was named after the 17th-century French explorer, Father Louis Hennepin, who was said to have travelled through the Great Lakes Region with the French explorer LaSalle in 1679 and that they explored the Detroit River region.

Father Hennepin is probably best-known for being credited with having been the first European to see the Niagara Falls.

Father Hennepin was a contemporary of the French Jesuit Father Jacques Marquette, who explored all over Lake Superior, Lake Michigan and Green Bay in our historical narrative.

While the Franciscans were members of related-religious orders said to have been founded by the highly-venerated and gentle St. Francis of Assisi in 1209, the Patron Saint of Animals, the Environment and Italy…

…I think the Franciscans played a similar role as the Jesuits with regards to what took place here in subverting the indigenous peoples and real history of the Americas.

The Franciscans were called the vanguard of missionary activity in the New World, but I definitely think they were also an active part of the cover-up and subversion of the original advanced civilization and its people here and in other parts of the world.

Father Hennepin was said to have left written journals describing the wild animals and abundant fruit orchards of Grosse Ile.

While we are told commercial fruit production shifted elsewhere, the island’s agricultural legacy is carried on by the Westcroft Gardens and Farm, the oldest family-owned and operated farm in the State of Michigan that was established on July 6th of 1776 in our historical narrative, owned and operated by 8-generations of the Macomb family.

Hennepin Point is described as an uninhabited, 225-acre, or 91-hectare, section at the northern tip of Grosse Ile.

It is known for a mix of historic maritime landmarks, wetlands, and long-standing environmental contamination concerns, including, but not limited to, toxic mercury waste.

It is separated from the rest of Grosse Ile’s main island by a narrow canal.

Hennepin Point is the location of the Grosse Ile North Channel Front Range Lighthouse.

It 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.

Grosse Ile is described as a peaceful residential township.

The East River Road Historic District is along the East River Road near the eastern-end of the Grosse Ile Parkway.

The district is called a small island community consisting of 11 structures, including 7 houses; two outbuildings; St. James Episcopal Church; and the Michigan Central Railroad Depot.

This is what we are told.

These homes were built primarily in Gothic Revival and Swiss Chalet-styles, in both limestone and wood, for Detroit’s affluent families facing the Detroit River with pleasant views and large yards.

Like the Gothic-Revival “Wedding Cake House,” said to have been built in 1859 for Samuel Lewis, a prominent Detroit banker.

The Samuel T. Douglass House, Anthony Dudgeon House, and St. James Episcopal Church were said to have been designed by Gordon W. Lloyd, an English-born architect who practiced in the American Midwest from the 1850s to the 1890s.

Gordon W. Lloyd was also credited with the design of such buildings as “Building 50,” described as the massive Victorian-Italianate centerpiece of the Northern Michigan Asylum in Traverse City, Michigan, a Kirkbride Facility that first opened in 1885.

It was saved from demolition, and today is “the “The Village at Grand Traverse Commons,” featuring condos, shops, and restaurants.

So the former Northern Michigan Asylum Kirkbride facility was redeveloped as a multi-use facility after years of sitting abandoned…

…though it also has a reputation of being haunted, which is more typical than not of these places.

In 1854, Dr. Thomas S. Kirkbride first published what was considered the source book in the 19th-century for Psychiatric Directives entitled “On the Construction, Organization, and General Arrangements of Hospitals for the Insane, ” with some remarks on insanity and its treatment.

We are told that throughout the 19th-century, numerous psychiatric hospitals were designed and constructed according to the Kirkbride Plan across the U. S. and while numerous Kirkbride structures still exist, many have been demolished, partially-demolished, or repurposed like the former Northern Michigan Asylum.

The former Michigan Central Railroad Depot still stands in the East River Road Historic District, and along with the former Customs House of the Canada Southern Railway, are part of the Historical Museum of the Grosse Ile Historical Society.

This location is right next to the Detroit River where it forms the international border with Canada.

We are told that in 1873, the Canada Southern Railway established a freight system across Grosse Ile, ferrying goods and passengers from Amherstburg , Ontario, to Stony Island – part of Michigan’s Grosse Ile Township and today an uninhabited island used by the public for fishing and hunting – then transporting them via rail across Grosse Ile where the Grosse Ile Parkway is now, to the mainland across the previously-mentioned former railroad bridge that is the Wayne County Bridge.

Crystal Island is located on the international border, and is part of Amherstburg, Ontario, and is a nature preserve.

With its distinctively pointed-shape, it is called an artificial island that was said to have been created to provide and make a deeper shipping lane.

And there are still railroad tracks in Amherstburg right across the Detroit River from the location of the historic Railroad Depot and Customs House, and the Point West golf Club just above the railroad tracks.

Today, we are told Amherstburg has no active heavy rail passenger or commercial train operations running directly into the town core today as its historical steam and electric lines have been converted in to heritage sites and public recreation greenways, like the Gibson Gallery and the Cypher Systems Group Greenway.

We are told the Gibson Gallery was the town’s original 1892 Michigan Central Railway Station that was saved and designated under the Ontario Heritage Act, and now operates as an art gallery and cultural space.

The Cypher Systems Greenway is a 14-mile, or 23-kilometer, multi-use rail-trail in an abandoned rail-line that runs between Amherstburg and Essex where it connects with the Chrysler Canada Greenway.

Besides the historic Michigan Central/Canada Southern Railroad, another historic rail-lines here were the Sandwich, Windsor and Amherstburg Railway, which was an electric interurban streetcar line connecting Windsor, LaSalle and Amherstburg from 1903 until interurban rail service ended in 1938.

More on Amherstburg to come shortly.

Fighting Island is to the northeast of Grosse Ile in the Detroit River.

Fighting Island is the largest Canadian Island in the Detroit River. and part of the town of LaSalle, Ontario.

In 1918, Fighting Island was purchased by John Ford of the Michigan Alkali Company, and was used as a location to deposit waste from their industrial plants, which produced soda ash, lye, and baking soda, and nearly 20,000,000-yards-squared, or 15,000,000-meters-squared, was dumped on the island in its industrial history, which ended in 1982.

The Michigan Alkali Company became the Wyandotte Chemicals Corporation, which was subsequently bought by BASF, a German Multinational company and the largest chemical producer in the world, who currently owns the island and we are told successfully removed the waste for proper disposal and rebuilt the natural habitat of the island.

BASF now manages Fighting Island as an ecological restoration and wildlife habitat area.

BASF operates a major chemical manufacturing facility across from Fighting Island in Wyandotte, Michigan.

It generates $1.9-billion in annual economic impact, and employs a significant portion of the region’s workforce.

There are 31 charted islands in the Detroit River, most of which are small, uninhabited, and on the American-side of the River.

Here is an historic map showing 22 of the islands.

It is interesting to note that one of the islands, Zug Island, a private island just south of the city of Detroit, is described as an artificial island that was once connected to the mainland at the mouth of the River Rouge, but we are told its original landowner, Samuel Zug, had a small canal created to set the land off as an island.

The island became the site of several steel mills in 1902, in what was called the age of rapid industrial development along the Detroit River.

Zug Island still houses a large steel mill today owned by U. S. Steel, with no public access allowed.

It is known as one of the most intensely polluted industrial sites in the Midwest.

The last place I am going to look at on Grosse Ile is the Grosse Ile Municipal Airport on the southern end of the island.

We are told that it started out in 1929 as Naval Reserve Air Base Grosse Ile, with a training base, seaplane base, and dirigible hangar.

It was renamed Naval Air Station Grosse Ile during World War II, and the installation was operated until 1969, at which time it closed down and was turned over to the Township in 1971 for use as a general aviation airport.

Today the Grosse Ile Municipal Airport is a general aviation facility and a local reliever airport facility for busy commercial hub airports.

It was named as one of the top regional airports for corporate aviation by DBusiness Magazine in 2020.

The Airport at the southern end of Grosse Ile brings to mind the Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport, also known as the Toronto Islands Airport, named after the Canadian World War I flying ace and World War II Air Marshall.

We are told the construction of the Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport was completed by 1939, which was the beginning of World War II, and that it had originally been conceived of as Toronto’s main airport, but that distinction ended up going to the Toronto Pearson International Airport.

The Billy Bishop Airport is used by civil aviation, regional airlines using turbo-prop airplanes, and air ambulances, and in 2022, was ranked as Canada’s 9th-busiest airport.

Similar to the 31 charted islands that are found in the Detroit River, the Toronto Islands are a chain of 15 small islands off of mainland Toronto in Lake Ontario, a short ferry ride from downtown Toronto.

The Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport is adjacent to Hanlan’s Point Beach on Hanlan’s Island.

Hanlan’s Point Beach was the location of the former Hanlan’s Point Amusement Park, and was considered Canada’s answer to Coney Island in New York City.

It operated from the 1880s until the 1930s, and in its heyday, was one of Toronto’s major attractions, with a roller coaster, miniature train, midway, grandstand, a vaudeville theater, and other attractions.

We are told that what was left of the park was demolished in 1937 to make room for the Toronto City Airport.

The Gibraltar Point Lighthouse is also located on the southern end of Hanlan’s Island, which is the most westerly of the Toronto Islands.

The Gibraltar Point Lighthouse is said to be the oldest existing lighthouse on the Great Lakes and one of the oldest buildings in Toronto, with construction started in 1808 and first lit in 1809.

Decommissioned in 1956, it is still unused, though occasionally open for public tours, including on the Doors Open Toronto weekend.

Important to note that the Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport also has the Riverdale Park Track located northeast of it in a linear alignment that crosses through the real estate on the Toronto Waterfront containing the Union Station, CN Tower, Rogers Center, Roundhouse Park in an area of the city called the “Railroad Lands.”

Similarly, the Grosse Ile Municipal Airport is in a linear alignment with the previously-mentioned Flat Rock Raceway, also an area with major railway infrastructure like the CN-Flat Rock Yard that at one time had a roundhouse as well as previously-mentioned.

I have found countless examples in my present and past research of airports having some kind of track in linear relationships short distances away, just like what we see here in Toronto and Grosse Ile.

Also like the location of the Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport with the former Hanlan’s Point Amusement Park and Gibraltar Lighthouse, Bois Blanc Island, popularly known as “Boblo Island,” located in the Detroit River between the airport on southern end of Grosse Ile and the city of Amherstburg on the mainland in Ontario, was the location of a former amusement park and has an historic lighthouse as well.

The island is most famous for the Boblo Island Amusement Park on the southside of the island, which operated from 1898 to 1993.

Visitors to the park would come via excursion steamships like the SS Columbia and the SS Ste. Claidr from the Boblo docks in Detroit.

The SS Columbia was said to have been built in 1902 and the SS Ste. Claire in 1910.

They were said to have been designed by naval architect Francis E. Kirby.

Each ship spanned 208-feet, or 63-meters, in length, and 45-feet, or 14-meters, in width, and had a carrying capacity of 2,500 to 3,000 passengers.

The boats featured dance floors, concession stands, and polished woodwork.

We are told that regular steamship service ended when the park closed in 1991 due to rising costs and declining attendance, and were designated as National Historic Landmarks in 1992.

The SS Ste. Claire suffered damage in a severe fire during restoration efforts in Detroit, and the SS Columbia was moved first to New York, and later Ohio.

We are told that in the early years of the Boblo Island Amusement Park, Henry Ford financed a dance hall that was rumored to have been designed and built by the previously-mentioned Albert Kahn, but then was determined to have been built by John Scott, another Detroit architect.

We are told the dance hall was the second-largest in the world, holding 5,000 dancers at full capacity.

To me, the Boblo Dance Hall has that airship hangar look to it.

The amusement park was left largely abandoned after its final closure in September of 1993, though parts of the property have since been redeveloped into a private upscale residential and waterfront community.

The island has no bridges connecting to the mainland but local ferries continue to serve the residents that live here.

The park’s rides were sold off in 1994, leaving empty grounds, overgrown paths, and decaying historic structures like its famous dance pavilion.

In our historical narrative, the 40-foot, or 12-meter, -tall limestone Lighthouse was constructed on Boblo Island in 1836 as an aid to navigation at the mouth of the Detroit River, and that the island then served as a military outpost.

The lighthouse was decommissioned in the late 1950s, but the structure remains to this day.  

Next, I am going to crossover at this location near the entrance of the Detroit River to Amherstburg in Ontario, and look at the Fort Malden Historic Site; the Amherstburg Navy Yard Historic Site; and the Belle Vue Historic Site.

We are told that Fort Malden was established here by the British in what became Amherstburg in 1796 following the loss of their thirteen colonies after the end of the American Revolutionary War in 1783, and it was occupied as a garrison.

The British presence in this area stimulated its development and the Crown granted land to Loyalists in Upper Canada in compensation for losses during the Revolutionary War or as payment for service during the war.

Upper Canada was an historical colony in North America that existed from 1791 to 1841 covering what is now the southern portion of Ontario, and became the primary destination of Loyalists and settlers from the United States.

Fort Malden was the location I mentioned previously where we are told American troops were taken as prisoners after the Battle of the River Raisin in January of 1813.

It was also the location in our historical narrative where Sir Isaac Brock, a British Major-General, and Tecumseh, a Shawnee chief and warrior who formed an inter-tribal Confederacy to resist the expansion of the United States onto indigenous lands, met to plan the Siege of Detroit, also known as the Battle of Fort Detroit, an early engagement in the War of 1812 that took place on the 15th and 16th of August of 1812, and in which the British-Indigenous forces were victorious.

We are told the British held Detroit for more than a year before their naval squadron was defeated at the Battle of Lake Erie in September of 1813, which forced them to abandon the western frontier of Upper Canada.

The Amherstburg Navy Yard National Historic Site is a 10.5-acre, or 4.25-hectare, waterfront public space on the Detroit River.

In our historical narrative, it served as a key British Naval Station for Lakes Erie and Huron from 1796 to 1813, and it was operated by the Provincial Marine and the Royal Navy, and that it was abandoned and burned by retreating British forces in 1813.

The Belle Vue National Historic Site is described as a vacant, historic, 1819 Palladian-style villa built for Fort Malden Commissary Robert Reynolds following the War of 1812, and he shared the villa with his sister, Catherine Reynolds, a noted 19th-century artist.

Over the decades, the villa has served as a private home; a World War I Veterans Convalescent Hospital; and a Ukrainian Catholic Church.

It was said to have been built between 1816 and 1819, and one of only two Palladian-style domestic architecture buildings in Canada, but the historic property has been empty and faced severe neglect and deterioration for years.

Though proposals have been made to redevelop and restore it, the restoration effort has hit economic roadblocks and is currently stalled.

Palladian architecture was a European architectural-style said to have been derived from Venetian architect Andrea Palladio, who lived between 1508 and 1580, whose work was based on the formal classical temple architecture of the ancient Greeks and Romans.

Next, moving in a southeasterly direction on the northern Lake Erie shore from the Amherstburg-area, I would talk about the area as a grape-growing and wine-producing region; Oxley Bluffs; the John R. Park Homestead Conservation Area; the Kingsville Rear Range Lighthouse and the Kingsville Golf & Country Club.

First, the Lake Erie North Shore is Canada’s southernmost and oldest commercial grape-growing and wine-producing region with at least 20 wineries.

It stretches from Amherstburg to Leamington in Essex County, and includes Ontario’s Pelee Island.

The world’s leading wine regions are between the 30th- and 50th-degree parallels North, and Ontario sits perfectly within this range at between 41 and 44-degrees North.

Besides the Lake Erie North Shore region, which is on the same latitude as Napa Valley in California, Bordeaux in France, and Tuscany in Italy, the Niagara Wine Region on Lake Ontario’s South Shore and Prince Edward County on Lake Ontario’s North Shore are acclaimed for their exceptional Ontario wines.

I found the exact same thing all along the south shore of Lake Erie.

The Lake Erie American Viticultural Area (AVA) is a 53-mile, or 85-kilometer, -long grape-growing region covering 2.2-million-acres, or 890,000-hectares, along the southern-shore of Lake Erie, stretching from Toledo, Ohio, to Buffalo, New York.

It is the largest AVA east of the Rockies, and known for its unique “lake effect” climate that is ideal for the growing of concord grapes, among other varieties, as the shallow lake moderates temperatures from harsh winters, protecting the vines and extending the growing season.

This includes the Lake Erie Islands, which have current and/or historic vineyards and wineries on Ohio’s Catawba Island; the South Bass, Middle Bass, an North Bass Islands; Kelley ‘s Island and Ontario’s Pelee Island.

The North Bass Island is known as Isle St. George.

As a matter of fact, the Isle St. George American Viticultural Area (AVA), which was established in 1982, is one of the most unusual wine regions in the United States, shown here on this map of the Ohio AVA along the southern shore of Lake Erie.

Commercial grape-growing on Isle St. George dates back to the 1850s, with more than half the island being planted in grapes historically and the island’s primary industry.

Almost 90% of the island is owned by the State of Ohio, featuring protected wetlands and vineyards.

The Finger Lakes Region to the south of Lake Ontario and to the east of Lake Erie, especially around Seneca Lake and Cayuga lake, is another American Viticultural Area known for its grape-growing, and accounts for about 80% of New York State’s wine-production.

The next places I want to look at are the Oxley Bluffs and the John R. Park Homestead Conservation Area.

First, Oxley Bluffs are described as a scenic stretch of elevated shoreline along the north shore of Lake Erie in the Hamlet of Oxley near Harrow in Ontario’s Essex County.

The bluffs rise 30 to 65-feet, or 10- to 20-meters above Lake Erie, and said to have been formed by glacial deposits and erosion over thousands of years.

Oxley was a popular summer resort around the turn of the 20th-century, with many visitors arriving by rail from Detroit to Harrow, and would travel to the bluff overlooking Lake Erie to stay at places like the Ravine Hotel.

The rail line that came through Harrow was originally the Lake Erie and Detroit River Railway.

It was said to have been founded by Hiram Walker in 1885 to connect Walkerville in Windsor and southern Essex County.

Hiram Walker was a 19th-century American entrepreneur that established a whiskey-distillery that produced the top export whiskey Canadian Club in Windsor in 1890, in what was called a model community specifically for the distillery that became known as “Walkerville.”

The Pere Marquette Railway acquired the Lake Erie and Detroit River Railway in 1903 and ran active passenger and freight services through southern Ontario to St. Thomas, roughly along the north shore of Lake Erie.

Passenger service along this route ended in 1955, and CSX Transportation is the current owner of any tracks that remain in operation.

The Windsor, Essex and Lake Shore Rapid Railway was an historic 37-mile, or 60-kilometer, electric radial railway in southern Ontario, connecting cities from Windsor to Leamington from 1907 to 1932, and was dismantled completely in 1935.

These “radial railways,” also known as “interurbans” were electric passenger railway networks that radiated outward from major city centers like spokes on a wheel, connecting urban downtowns with surrounding suburbs, rural towns and neighboring cities.

The disappearance of the rail and interurban history here reflects the broader story of railroading that we have been seeing of rapid-growth in the mid-to-late 19th-century; peak influence in the early 20th-century, and decline in the years preceding and following World War II, in the 1930s and 1940s, for given reasons like increased automobile ownership; expansion of bus service; and better roads and highways.

With respect to Oxley Bluffs, in this series I have been making note of the bluffs around the shores of not only Lake Erie, but all of the Great Lakes, and believe them to have been visible remnants of places where the land broke off or became submerged when the original energy grid was destroyed around key infrastructure of that energy grid, including but not limited to, rail infrastructure, lighthouses, star forts, canals, nuclear and other power plants, airports, and a sophisticated hydroelectric system that included waterfalls.

So I’ll insert here my belief that all the bluffs and cliffs we are seeing is where land was previously, and it sheared off and is now below the surface of the water.

When the word “sheer” is used to refer to a cliff, it means a high area of land with a very steep side.

One of the meanings of the word “shear” spelled with an “a” is to break off, or be cut off, sharply.

A synonym of the word for “sheer cliff” is “bluff.”

Another meaning of the word “bluff” is a deception, or an attempt to deceive.

Next, the John R. Park Homestead Conservation Area.

This is an Ontario Heritage Trust-designated property that today is an agricultural and living history museum of farm life in the 19th-century.

We are told that it was originally the home of John and Amelia Park.

I think living history museums, and museums of all kinds, as well as expositions and exhibitions, are and were some of the ways the new historical narrative to explain the world we live in has been seeded into our collective consciousness.

It was on land purchased by John, Theodore and Thomas Park who had moved from Massachusetts to Upper Canada, and purchased a 114-acre, or 46-hectare, lot on Lake Erie.

The Parks brothers owned a sawmill, general store, Great Lakes shipping line, and were large land-holders in the area.

Next, Kingsville, the Kingsville Rear Range Lighthouse and the Kingsville Golf & Country Club.

Interesting to note that Kingsville has the distinction of being Canada’s southernmost town.

The area is one of Canada’s most productive agricultural regions, famous for large greenhouse operations producing things like tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, strawberries and flowers, along with its vineyards and wineries.

Kingsville is near the previously-mentioned Chrysler Canada Greenway, a recreational rail-trail that was formerly part of the rail corridor for the Lake Erie and Detroit River Railway founded by Whiskey-magnate Hiram Walker.

The rail-line was abandoned in the late 20th-century, and the corridor donated to the Essex County Conservation Authority.

Chrysler Canada contributed funding toward converting it into a recreational trail, and the Greenway officially opened in 1997.

The Greenway runs for 28-miles, or 45-kilometers, from the Windsor-area through Essex County to Ruthven, just northwest of Kingsville.

The Kingsville Rear Range Lighthouse is described as an historic wooden tower built in 1889 in the Kingsville Harbor to guide ships, and its active service ended in 1936.

After retirement, it was moved to Kingsville Historical Park as a local heritage monument.

Next up, the nearby Kingsville Golf & Country Club.

It has been operating since 1925, and is one of Essex County’s best known golf facilities.

The course is known for its rolling terrain, mature trees, and numerous bunkers and water hazards on many holes.

Now we are heading into the Leamington area, where I am going to be looking at the Leamington Lighthouse, Raceway, Airport, Pelee Island and Point Pelee National Park.

Leamington is the second-largest urban center in the Windsor-Essex region after Windsor, with a population of close to 30,000-people.

Leamington is called the “Tomato Capital of Canada.”

Today it’s famous for its greenhouse industry, though it has a long-history of field-grown tomatoes.

Agriculture and food-processing are the backbone of the local economy.

Leamington grew quickly after the H. J. Heinz Company established a processing plant there in 1908, making ketchup and other tomato products.

The tomato-processing operation continued under new ownership after Heinz ended their operations here in 2014.

Henry John Heinz was the founder of the condiment-manufacturing H. J. Heinz Company .

During the mid-19th-century, his parent immigrated from Germany to Pittsburgh in Pennsylvania.

By the time of his death in 1919, the H. J. Heinz Company owned over twenty food-processing plants, as well as seed farms and container factories.

Heinz merged with Kraft in 2015 to become the world’s fifth-largest food and beverage company.

The Leamington Raceway is a standardbred harness horse-racing track that was established in 1900.

It is located on the Leamington Fairgrounds, and although it is a small venue, it has hosted the Ontario Sires Stakes, one of the premiere standardbred harness-racing programs in North America and has long been an important stop for Ontario’s harness-racing community.

The Leamington Airport is a short-distance to the southeast of the Leamington Raceway.

The Leamington Airport is a small public general aviation airport serving private pilots, business aircraft, flight training, agricultural aviation, and recreational flying.

The Leamington Lighthouse is described as a square, pyramidal wooden tower constructed in 1880 to guide ships into Leamington’s port and It was decommissioned in 1923.

Here is an historic photo of it standing right next to what looks like sheared-off land.

Like what you see in this circa 1910 photo of the Outer Island Lighthouse in Wisconsin’s Apostle Islands.

There are eight lighthouses in the Apostle Islands, a group of 22 islands in Lake Superior.

So this is very much like the appearance of all the scattered little island groups we have seen thus far in this post in the Detroit River, Toronto Harbor, and Lake Erie.

We are told the Leamington Lighthouse was moved from its original location to what became a privately-owned community now known as the Lighthouse Club, just north of Seacliff Beach.

Seacliff Beach and Seacliff Park are among Leamington’s oldest and historically significant public spaces.

Seacliff Park was created in 1907 and was one of southwestern Ontario’s popular summer destinations.

Visitors came to enjoy a boathouse and a bathhouse; a baseball diamond; a boardwalk connecting the waterfront and dock to the park; a large pavilion for dances, picnics, and community events; and a pavilion for concerts and performances.

The pavilion was one of the park’s best-known landmarks and was said to have been built in 1914, which would have been the first year of World War I.

It hosted dances, celebrations and gatherings for years before being demolished in the 1950s.

Today, Seacliff Beach is one of Essex County’s most popular public beaches, with recreational amenities and connections to Pelee Island.

What is called the Pelee Passage New Lighthouse is in-between the mainland and Pelee Island, and Lighthouse Point Provincial Nature Reserve is on the northern end of Pelee Island.

The base of the Pelee Passage New Lighthouse lighthouse stands on a shoal that is 13-feet, or 4-meters, below the surface of the water.

A shoal is defined as a place where a body of water is shallow, and where a ridge, bank or bar is close to the surface of the water, and poses a danger to navigation.

We are told the first lighthouse in the Pelee Passage was built in 1857, but it burned down in 1900.

It was replaced with another lighthouse that lasted until 1975, when it was replaced by the current lighthouse.

Next, the Lighthouse Point Provincial Nature Reserve.

It has a lighthouse that was said to have been built around 1833, and said to be the second-oldest Canadian lighthouse on Lake Erie.

It also has rare species of plants and animals, though the land here is classified as wetlands, savannahs, and the remnants of deciduous forests.

Pelee Island is the southernmost permanently inhabited point in Canada.

It is the largest island in Lake Erie, and has one of the warmest climates in Canada, and also a wine region.

The Pelee Island Winery is one of Canada’s largest.

It started modern operations in the 1980s and also helped revive the historic viticulture on Pelee island.

The Stone Road Alvar Nature Reserve is on the southern end of Pelee Island.

The Stone Road Alvar Nature Reserve preserves what is called a rare “alvar” ecosystem, which is a habitat where thin soil lies directly over flat, limestone bedrock where only specialized plants and animals can survive.

The reserve protects rare and endangered species like prairie plants not common in Canada; orchids; snakes and reptiles; migratory birds; and butterflys and moths.

I want to point out that 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.

There are two things that I would like to mention before I move on from here.

The first is about lighthouses.

I have no doubt that the original purpose of lighthouses is not what we are told, and that the people who took credit for building them did not build them.

I think “lighthouses” were quite literally referring to “a house for light” for the purposes of precisely distributing the 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.

Even the colossal “Statue of Liberty” was a lighthouse in Upper New York Bay, and utilized as such from November 1st of 1886 until March 1st of 1902 in our historical record, and I have found that all lighthouses were in perfect alignment with the heavens, including solar, lunar, and Milky Way alignments.

These are just a few of countless examples to show you what I am talking about.

They certainly became utilized as navigational aids, but I think that was because the land sheared off and sank right beside where they were located, creating the rocky and dangerous reefs and shallow areas in the waters that the lighthouses became needed for.

The second thing I would like to mention is the incredible fertility of the Great Lakes Region with world-class vineyards, fruit orchards, and farming in general, that I have found and documented throughout this series, particularly around Lakes Michigan, Huron, Ontario, and Erie, and a significant economic driver of the region.

I suspect the agricultural productivity of this region to be in part due to a connection from the original energy grid system between the railroad, hydroelectric system, and all kinds of agricultural activity, functioning as the original electroculture.

Point Pelee National Park is to the southeast of Leamington and the northeast of Pelee Island.

Point Pelee National Park is located on a narrow spit of land extending into Lake Erie that is the southernmost point of mainland Canada.

It is a major stopover for migrating birds and monarch butterflies.

The park contains marshes, beaches, savanna, and a rare Carolinian forest, a type of deciduous forest where plant and animal species are more commonly found in the Carolinas and other parts of the eastern United States.

The southern tip of Point Pelee is a shifting sandbar where visitors can stand in water on both sides.

Its shape is constantly changing from waves, currents and changing lake levels.

The Hillman Marsh Conservation Area is just a short distance from Point Pelee going north around the lakeshore.

It is one of the largest remaining wetlands in Essex County, and like Point Pelee, known for having a Carolinian-type ecosystem, and provides habitat for many rare and endangered plant and animal species.

Hillman Marsh sits behind a natural barrier beach along Lake Erie, and in recent years, erosion, storms, and high-water levels have breached part of that barrier, exposing the marsh to stronger waves and changing water conditions.

As a result, current restoration projects aim to rebuild and strengthen the barrier beach and improve wetland habitat.

A barrier beach is defined as a long, low-lying strip of sand and dunes that runs parallel to the mainland, separated from it by a lagoon, marsh, or bay.

An embayment is defined as a recess in a coastline forming a bay.

Also interesting to note that the Hillman Marsh Conservation Area is located close to the Leamington Airport, which is another consistent finding of airports right next to wetlands, like estuaries and lagoons.

Examples include, but are far from limited to, Sydney International Airport on Botany Bay in Australia and JFK International Airport on Jamaica Bay in New York City, both of which are classified as estuaries.

An “estuary” is defined as a partially-enclosed, coastal body of brackish water, which is water that is salty, dirty & unpleasant, with one or more rivers flowing into it, and a connection to the open sea.

Now I am going to head 38-miles, or 61-kilometers, east to the Rondeau West Breakwater Range Lighthouse and the Rondeau Provincial Park.

The Rondeau Provincial Park is situated on a sandy peninsula featuring 7-miles, or 11-kilometers, of beaches and Carolinian forests.

It is the second oldest Provincial Park in Ontario, having been established in 1894, after Algonquin Provincial Park which was established in 1893.

The West Breakwater Range Lighthouse of today is described as a 1912 square concrete tower, and modified from an 1891 structure.

To make a long story short, this is what we are told about the history of a lighthouse here.

In 1843, Canada’s Board of Works noted that there was scarcely one harbor on the Canadian-side of Lake Erie which was not in a state of dilapidation, and that to remedy this, the Board announced plans to convert the Rondeau Bay location into a good harbor by the construction of a breakwater and two piers.

The government started dredging the sandbar separating the bay from Lake Erie in 1844, building a set of parallel piers and building a lighthouse.

Then in 1876, two wooden lighthouses were erected and first lit on September 7th to allow ship captains to steer precisely into narrow channels, and that in 1891, the system was modernized with a new octagonal lighthouse constructed as shipping was increased.

The lighthouse on the east breakwater today is described as a steel, skeletal tower that was built in 1905.

As I make my way east across Lake Erie’s north shore towards Long Point at a distance of 75-miles, or 120-kilometers, I want to take a look in-between these two places at the locations of Moraviantown and London.

First Moraviantown.

The Battle of the Thames, also known as the Battle of Moraviantown, took place on October 5th of 1813.

The Battle of the Thames was an American victory in the War of 1812 against Tecumseh’s Confederacy and their British allies.

As a result of the battle, Tecumseh was killed, his confederacy fell apart, and the British lost control of southwestern Ontario.

Today it is the location of the Moravian-on-the-Thames First Nation Reserve, a branch of the Lenape who were converted to Christianity by Moravian missionaries from Pennsylvania, one of the oldest Protestant denominations.

At the time of the battle, the community of this First Nation, known as the Christian Munsee, was burned to the ground and rebuilt at its current location.

The nearby Tecumseh Monument is a stone marker and a larger federal plaque at the location where Tecumseh was killed in action on the day of the battle.

During the War of 1812, the historical figure of Lewis Cass rose through the officer ranks to become a Brigadier General in the U. S. Army in March of 1813, and he took part in the Battle of the Thames

I first learned about Lewis Cass when I was researching the State of Michigan in my series on who is represented in the National Statuary Hall at the U. S. Capitol in Washington, DC.

I learned a lot about obscured history and what the official historical narrative tells us about what has taken place here from the research I have done so far on who is represented there. 

After having gone through approximately half of the states, I have found that regardless of fame or obscurity, the National Statuary Hall functions more-or-less as a “Who’s Who” for the New World Order and its Agenda..

The State of Michigan is represented by Lewis Cass, as well as Gerald Ford.

Cass joined the Freemasons as an Entered Apprentice, the first degree of Freemasonry, at a lodge in Marietta, Ohio, in 1803 , and by May of 1804, he achieved the Master Mason degree, the third-degree of Freemasonry.

Lewis Cass was a charter member of the Lodge of Amity No. 5 in Zanesville, admitted in June of 1805, and was one of the founders of the Grand Lodge of Ohio in January of 1808, serving as its Grand Master multiple years.

Lewis Cass had been appointed as the Governor of the Michigan Territory by President James Madison in October of 1813, a position in which he served until 1831.

During this time, he travelled frequently to negotiate treaties with the indigenous peoples in Michigan, in which they ceded substantial amounts of land.

Cass resigned as the Governor of Michigan in 1831 to become President Andrew Jackson’s Secretary of War, a position he would hold for the next 5-years.

As President Jackson’s Secretary of War, Cass was central in implementing the Indian Removal policy of the Jackson administration after Congress passed the Indian Removal Act in 1830.

The Indian Removal Act was directed specifically at the Five Civilized Tribes of the Southeastern United States – the Cherokee, Creeks, Seminole, Chickasaw and Choctaw – though it also affected tribes in Ohio, Illinois and other areas east of the Mississippi River.

Most were forced to Indian Territory in present-day Oklahoma, Kansas, and Nebraska.

The City of London, Ontario, is further up the Thames River from Moraviantown.

Today, London has a population of around 400,000 people and is the largest municipality in southwestern Ontario.

It is centrally-located at approximately 120-miles, or 200-kilometers, from both Toronto and Detroit, and 140-miles, or 230-kilometers, from Buffalo, and is at the junction of Highways 401 and 402, which directly connects it with these major cities of the region.

In our historical narrative, the region has long been home to the Anishinaabeg, Haudenosaunee, and Lenape peoples for 10s of thousands of years.

We are told John Graves Simcoe, the Lieutenant-Governor of Upper Canada from 1791 to 1796, selected this location as his preferred site for the capital of Upper Canada in 1793, and named it after the City of London and its River Thames, though the capital of Upper Canada ultimately became what is now Toronto.

London was founded in 1826; incorporated as a town in 1840; and became a city on January 1st of 1855.

The arrival of the Great Western Railway in 1853 made it a transportation hub, and besides being in a rich agricultural region, manufacturing expanded, including breweries, farm equipment, foundries and furniture.

Noteworthy places in London include Western University, which was founded in 1878.

…and Victoria Park in downtown London, a major community event venue with a bandshell, the location of which was said to have started out as the site of a British garrison in 1838.

The year of 1855 that London became a city was two years before Ottawa became the capital of Canada.

Our historical narrative tells us that on New Year’s Eve of 1857, Queen Victoria was presented with the responsibility of choosing the location for the permanent capital of Canada, with Ottawa being described as a small, frontier town.

The Parliament buildings pictured here were said to have been constructed between 1859 and 1866, in an architectural style called Gothic Revival.

This is a view of Parliament Hill from the Rideau Canal.

Next, I am going to head down to Long Point from London.

Long Point was established as a Provincial Park in May of 1921, and is described as one of Ontario’s most remarkable natural landmarks.

It stretches about 25-miles, or 40 kilometers into Lake Erie from Norfolk County.

It is the longest freshwater sand spit in the world and features dynamic sand dunes, wetlands, and rare Carolinian forests.

It is also a critical stopover for migratory birds and waterfowl, as it lies on one of North America’s busiest migratory bird flyways, with more than 300 bird species recorded.

Like Humbug Marsh back on the Detroit River in Michigan, Long Point is a Ramsar Site designated to be of international importance.

Following the American Revolution, Loyalists and other settlers began arriving in Norfolk County during the 1790s.

Long Point itself remained sparsely settled because of its shifting sands, wetlands, and isolation, and because it wasn’t a good location for farming, it became known for fishing, commercial waterfowl hunting, timber harvesting, and later, recreation and tourism.

Long Point has one of the most notorious reputations on the Great Lakes as it projects far into Lake Erie, creating shoals that extend well offshore.

Historians estimate that hundreds of ships have been wrecked around Long Point over the past two centuries, leading some to nickname the area the “Graveyard of Lake Erie.”

We are told because of the dangers, several lighthouses were built on Long Point, and that the first was established in 1833 near the tip of the peninsula.

The Long Point Lighthouse today was said to have been constructed in 1916, which would have been in the middle of World War I.

It sits within a fragile wildlife preserve.

There is also the historic Old Cut Lighthouse on Long Point.

The Old Cut Lighthouse was said to have been built in 1879 to navigate a narrow channel called “the Old Cut,” which was said to have opened up during a storm in the 1830s.

It was decommissioned in 1916, and sold into private hands.

It remains standing today as a private residence.

Interesting to note that in 1866, a group of sportsmen formed the Long Point Company and purchased much of the peninsula as a private hunting preserve, and the company still owns a significant portion of Long Point today.

Now I am going to move over from Long Point and take a look at the Port Dover-area.

I am specifically interested in the Port Dover Lighthouse and the Lynn River Falls.

Port Dover is an unincorporated community and former town.

It’s biggest claim to fame these days is the Friday the 13th Motorcycle Rally held every Friday the 13th, and in the summer months its attendance exceeds 100,000.

We are told the first settlers in the area were United Empire Loyalists in 1794, and it was incorporated as a village in 1835 and later as a town.

It lost its independent town status when it was incorporated into the new city of Nanticoke in 1974.

The Port Dover Lighthouse is said to be one of the best-known landmarks on the north shore of Lake Erie, and one of Ontario’s oldest surviving small wooden harbor lighthouses.

We are told the first lighthouse was built in this location around 1845 and 1846, and that it was rebuilt in 1847, which is the structure we see today.

For much of the 19th-century, Port Dover was an important commercial harbor for things like grain, lumber, coal, fish and passengers.

The Hamilton and Lake Erie Railway (H & LER) began operating here in 1873, and was soon merged with the Hamilton and Northwestern Railway which completed the final section from Port Dover to Jarvis in the mid-1870s.

The Port Dover and Lake Huron Railway was one of the most important regional railways in southwestern Ontario during the late-19th-century, and the line opened for traffic in 1875.

It allowed Port Dover to develop into a busy shipping port and connected the agricultural Norfolk and Oxford counties to larger rail networks, and became the backbone of a rail-system that reached Lake Huron.

The South Norfolk Railway started operating in the county in 1889, an historic branch line that ran from Simcoe to Port Rowan, and connecting indirectly to the primary lake port network centered around Port Dover via the Port Dover and Lake Huron Railway.

The interurban that served Port Dover was the Lake Erie & Northern Railway (LE & N), and operated for passenger service between 1916 and 1955, with freight service continuing until 1961.

The route of the LE & N was Galt (now part of Cambridge) – Brantford – Simcoe – Port Dover.

It used 1,500-volt DC overhead, which was unusually high-voltage for a North American interurban, and it became famous as the “Dover Beach” train carrying thousands of vacationers to Lake Erie’s beaches in the summer months.

We are told that in 1921 alone, it carried over 600,000 passengers.

Portions of the local rail corridors, such as the Lynn Valley Trail, now serve as recreational trails connecting Simcoe and Port Dover.

The Lynn Valley Trail follows the old railway line alongside the Lynn River between Simcoe and Port Dover.

The Lynn River is described as a relatively important but small river in southwestern Ontario, flowing through the heart of Norfolk County and passing through Simcoe before emptying into Lake Erie at Port Dover.

There are two reservoirs on the Lynn River – one at Crystal Lake in Simcoe and Silver Lake at Port Dover.

Crystal Lake and man-made reservoir is adjacent to Wellington Park in the heart of Simcoe.

It features what is described as a small local landmark lighthouse.

Silver Lake in Port Dover is described as one of its defining landmarks.

It is an artifical lake that was created by damming the Lynn River in the mid-19th-century.

We are told the dam was created in 1856 in order to provide water-power for the Norfolk Woollen Mill and other industries.

We are told that for much of its history, Silver Lake was an economic driver for Port Dover, powering woollen and knitting mills; ice-harvesting in the wintertime; greenhouse operations for local agriculture, and the former railway passed along its eastern edge.

This brings me to the Lynn River Falls.

The Lynn River Falls are described as a small and picturesque waterfall about 3 – 6-feet, or 1 – 2-meters, high, and fall over a “bedrock ledge” in the valley near the mouth of the Lynn River, with the water flow of the falls affected by seasonal weather conditions.

The falls are located on the east-side of Port Dover, close to McQueen Cemetery and not far from Silver Lake and the Lynn Valley Trail.

There are several things I would like to make note of here.

The first thing is that I consistently find present and past railroad lines running alongside “rivers.

There’s the railroad that runs alongside the New River through the New River Gorge in West Virginia on the top left; alongside the Lehigh River through the Lehigh Gorge in Pennsylvania on the top right; the Royal Gorge Railroad alongside the Arkansas River going through the Royal Gorge in Colorado on the bottom left; and alongside the Sacramento River through the Sacramento River Canyon in California on the bottom right.

I also consistently find hydroelectric dams and reservoir sites with railroads close by, like the Davis Island Lock & Dam in Avalon, Pennsylvania, on the top left; the Wells Dam in Chelan, Washington, on the top right; the John Day Dam and Umatilla Reservoir on the Columbia River between Washington and Oregon, on the bottom left; and on the bottom right, the flooding of Celilo when The Dalles Dam was completed in Oregon – Celilo was one of the oldest, continuously inhabited places in North America.

Then there are cemeteries.

I have found waterfalls and cemeteries co-located, like in Buffalo, New York, where Scajaquada Creek passes over Serenity Falls in the Forest Lawn Cemetery on its way to Delaware Park.

Forest Lawn Cemetery is next to Delaware Park.

Delaware Park was considered the centerpiece of the Buffalo Olmsted Park System, New York’s oldest system of paths and pathways, which included six parks, seven parkways, eight landscaped circles, and other public spaces, said to have been designed with Calvert Vaux between 1868 and 1876, the famous duo of landscape architects who also received credit for the design of Central Park in New York City in our historical narrative.

We are told that Olmsted dammed Scajaquada Creek to create what is called Hoyt Lake today, and that was a feature during the 1901 Pan-American Exposition in Buffalo.

The last point I would like to make here is about waterfalls.

I have been stating my belief throughout this series that the Great Lakes were formed from tremendous amounts of water from the outflow of the waterfalls and the interconnected hydrology of the canal system found throughout the Great Lakes region.

This map gives you an idea of just how many waterfalls are found throughout the region, and it is very important to note there are many more waterfalls than what is shown here.

I think the sophisticated energy grid was destroyed, and the water flowed-in and filled in the land the Great Lakes occupy today.

I’ve found examples throughout this series of waterfalls that flow directly into their lakes today.

Like the Columbia Beach Falls in Columbia Park near Bay Village, Ohio, on the south-side of Lake Erie are noteworthy for flowing directly into the lake.

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 sandstone formations, directly into Lake Superior.

Then there is the Niagara Falls region between New York and Ontario along the Niagara River between Lake Ontario and Lake Erie.

Niagara Falls has been called a “Hydroelectric Mecca.”

Niagara Falls is capable of producing 4-million kilowatts of electricity, which is shared by the United States and Canada, and is also noteworthy for its present-day and historic hydroelectric and power-generation facilities.

Niagara Falls is the largest waterfall by volume in North America, consisting of a group of three waterfalls on the Niagara River spanning the international border between New York and Ontario – Horseshoe Falls in Ontario and Bridal Veil Falls and American Falls in New York.

3,160-tons of water flow over all three of the Niagara Falls every second, with water plunging 32-feet, or 10-meters, every second, hitting the base with 280-tons of force at the American and Bridal Veil Falls, and 2,509-tons of force at the Horseshoe Falls.

The water from Niagara Falls flows north on the Niagara River into Lake Ontario.

Next, from Port Dover, I am going to move on over to the Port Maitland and Dunnville-area.

I am particularly interested in looking at the Port Maitland Lighthouse; Rock Point Provincial Park; Mohawk Island Lighthouse; and the Dunnville Autodrome, the wind turbines and No. 6 RCAF Dunnville Museum next to the autodrome.

Port Maitland straddles the mouth of the Grand River where it enters Lake Erie.

It was named after Sir Peregrine Maitland, who was the Lieutenant Governor of Upper Canada from 1818 to 1828.

The Grand River is the largest river that is entirely within southern Ontario’s boundaries, flowing for 170-miles, or 280-kilometers, south from Wareham, Ontario, to Port Maitland, Ontario, on the north shore of Lake Erie.

It flows through the cities of Waterloo, Kitchener and Brantford, as well as the “Six Nations of the Grand River Reserve” of the Haudenosaunee People.

This is the only place in North America where all six nations of the Haudenosaunee live together, and we are told on land that was granted by the British Crown for allegiance during the American Revolution as compensation for lands lost in New York.

The original land grant was 960,000-acres, or 388,500-hectares, and it has shrunk to the reserve covering 46,000-acres, or 18,615-hectares, which is about 5-percent of the original land grant.

The first five nations of the Haudenosaunee, also known as Iroquois Confederacy, were the Seneca, Mohawk, Oneida, Onondaga, and Cayuga.

The Tuscarora were accepted into the Confederacy in 1722, and became known as the “Six Nations.”

The Haudenosaunee are a Confederacy bound by the Great Law of Peace, a constitution that established a representative government and is still in use today.

The Grand River also has numerous waterfalls along its course, including, but not limited to, the Elora Gorge Falls and the Devil’s Creek Falls, which empties into the Grand River, among the many other waterfalls in the area on the Niagara Escarpment around Hamilton.

Hamilton is called the “City of Waterfalls.”

There are more than one-hundred waterfalls and cascades in the city limits of Hamilton, which is one of the highest number of waterfalls for any urban areas of its size.

Now back to Port Maitland and the lighthouse there.

We are told the Port Maitland Lighthouse dates back to the 19th-century, with navigational lights established as shipping increased through the nearby canal system, which I will talk more about when I get to Port Colborne shortly.

The lighthouse is said to date from 1898, and is located on the west pier of the Grand River entrance.

It is still an active aid to navigation.

We are told that Rock Point Provincial Park is one of the hidden gems on the north shore of Lake Erie.

The park’s signature attraction is its exposed limestone shelf or ledge where you can see marine fossils embedded in the flat rock shoreline.

Interesting to note from our historical narrative 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 were above the surface where that rock ledge was located, underneath layers of soil and trees.

The loess and colluvium marked in this graphic are both types of loose materials, with loess referring to wind-blown silt, and colluvium referring to loose material that has moved downhill.

The Mohawk Island Lighthouse is visible from Rock Point Provincial Park, where it is located just offshore.

We are told that construction began on it in 1846 and was completed around 1848 to protect ships navigating one of Canada’s busiest commercial routes in the mid-1800s.

At that time, our narrative tells us that Port Maitland was the southern entrance of the Welland Canal, and ships had to navigate the dangerous shoals around Mohawk Island.

It is 59-feet, or 18-meters, -tall, and built entirely of limestone.

We are told it was designed with the lighthouse-keeper’s residence attached directly to the tower, and is believed to be the only surviving stone lighthouse with the integrated keeper’s residence.

It was abandoned in the 20th-century and remains an impressive ruin today.

It was under consideration for demolition until local residents rallied around its preservation, and the lighthouse was preserved in the Mohawk Island National Wildlife Area in 1978.

Next up, the Dunnville Autodrome, and the wind turbines and No. 6 RCAF Dunnville Museum next to the autodrome, and all three are situated next a large-bend in the Grand River.

The Dunnville Autodrome was described as a road course built on the grounds of the former Dunnville Airport, having been repurposed from one of the old World War II airfield’s runways into a paved road course for race events.

It was permanently closed in 2009, though the former circuit still exists on the former airfield, though it is no longer operated as a public racing venue any more.

We are told the property began life as RCAF Station Dunnville during World War II, where it became home to the “No. 6 Service Flying Training School” between 1940 and 1944.

After the war, the airfield was used for aviation, including becoming the Dunnville Airport, until part of the airfield was converted into the Dunnville Autodrome in 2004.

Today the former airport property is home to the “No. 6 RCAF Dunnville Museum,” which preserves the site’s aviation history.

The wind turbines at this location are part of the Grand Renewable Wind Farm, one of the largest renewable energy projects in southern Ontario during the Green Energy Act-era

The site was incorporated into the larger Grand Renewable Energy Park.

Construction began in 2013 and the wind and solar farm entered into commercial operation in December of 2014.

I would like to mention my belief that the original energy grid is being utilized by the energy industry unbeknownst to the general population and that some other form of energy besides wind is powering these gigantic turbines.

We are told that these are wind turbines, yet all of the wind turbines that are running go at the same speed, regardless of whether or not the wind is blowing. 

The next place I am going to take a look at is Port Colborne, 11-miles, or 18-kilometers, east of Port Maitland.

Port Colborne is southern end of the Welland Canal in southern Ontario’s Niagara Region.

The Niagara Region occupies most of the Niagara Peninsula, and is bounded in the North by Lake Ontario; to the South by Lake Erie; and in the east by the Niagara River.

The Niagara Region is an important center of agriculture, including viticulture, and tourism.

The Niagara Peninsula is the largest and most concentrated wine-making region in Canada from the vineyards that flourish on what are called the “Benchlands” of the Niagara Escarpment.

The Welland Canal passes through this part of the Niagara Peninsula between St. Catharines’ Port Weller on Lake Ontario on the northern end and Port Colborne on Lake Erie on the southern end.

The Welland Canal allows ships to go up and down the Niagara Escarpment, and according to our historical narrative, it has followed four different routes since it first opened on November 30th of 1829.

It is part of the St. Lawrence Seaway and the Great Lakes Waterway.

The St. Lawrence Waterway is described as the system of rivers, canals, locks and channels in the northern United States and eastern Canada that allows ocean-going vessels to travel from the Atlantic Ocean throughout the Great Lakes region of North America.

We are told the Great Lakes Waterway is a system of natural channels and artificial locks and canals that allow for the navigation between all of the Great Lakes, with the major civil engineering works being the Welland Canal between Lakes Ontario and Erie, and the Soo Locks between Lakes Superior and Huron, and what are called dredged channels in the St. Mary’s River, the Detroit River, Lake St. Clair, and the St. Clair River between Lakes Huron and Erie.

The Onondaga Escarpment runs right through Port Colborne and can be seen driving from Welland, Ontario, to Port Colborne on Highway 58.

The Onondaga Escarpment runs east-to-west along the northern shoreline of Lake Erie.

The Niagara Escarpment also runs predominantly east-to-west, from New York along the south shore of Lake Ontario, and then on up through Ontario, Michigan, Illinois, and Wisconsin, with a nice, half-circle shape, attached to a straight-line, when drawn on a map.

When I first saw the map of the region’s waterfalls, it struck me how many there are on the Ontario side of Lake Huron and the Georgian Bay, including a series of waterfalls running along the Niagara Escarpment from Niagara Falls.

In western New York State, the Niagara Escarpment runs from Lewiston at the International Border with Canada and trends easterly for 79-miles, or 127-kilometers, to just beyond Rochester, and the Onandaga Escarpment runs for 62-miles, or 100-kilometers, from Buffalo in an easterly direction to just beyond Caledonia.

Both escarpments feature numerous waterfalls.

These examples are in New York State.

I strongly suspect that these escarpments and their waterfalls were intentionally-designed components of the hydroelectric infrastructure of the original energy grid, and were not natural in origin as we have been taught to believe.

We are told that breaks on the limestone ridge of the Onondaga Escarpment allowed water from Lake Erie to flow into the Wainfleet Bog Conservation Area near Port Colborne.

The Wainfleet Bog is the largest remaining bog in southern Ontario, and provides habitat for a variety of unique plants and animals.

Interesting to note what appear to be megalithic stone blocks laying around the base of the signage here.

They are not supposed to be here so we don’t see them as such.

Here are some other examples of what I am talking about.

The Eighteenmile Creek Conservation Park on the south shore of Lake Erie in western New York State, a recreational area for hiking, fishing, and wildlife viewing, is described by things like having difficult access and hard to find with little signage apart from the parking area and limited trail signage.

The parking area here is surrounded by megalithic stone blocks.

I had the same experience when I was looking for the Turkey Mountain Urban Wilderness Area in Tulsa, Oklahoma, many years ago when I was first waking up to all this.

It was on the map but hard to find with little signage apart from the parking area and limited trail signage.

The parking lot for Turkey Mountain was also surrounded by megalithic stone blocks, and they were the size of VW buses!!!

The hiding of this ancient advanced civilization in plain sight was accomplished by shaping the false narrative, educating us in it, and reinforcing it with images coming from Hollywood, literature, art – it is not supposed to be there, so we don’t see it. 

We don’t even think it.

Interesting to note that there was an historic railway through the Wainfleet Bog.

The Erie Peat Railway is described as a small, narrow-gauge railway that operated inside the Wainfleet Bog between 1940 until the mid-1980s to haul harvested peat moss from deep inside the bog to the local processing plant.

There was a Prisoner-of-War camp here during World War II between August of 1943 and November of 1945, from which the German prisoners provided labor for the Erie Peat Company.

Next, from Port Colborne I am going to head east 9-miles, or 14-kilometers, to the Point Abino Lighthouse

We are told the Point Abino Lighthouse is one of the most architecturally distinctive lighthouses in Canada.

It was said to have been built in the Greek Revival-style between 1917 and 1918, which would have been during World War I.

The Abino Point Lighthouse still houses its 3rd-order Fresnel lens, one of only sixteen lighthouses out of the 200 remaining lighthouses, out of what was originally estimated to be 350 to 400 lighthouses, to have its original Fresnel Lens.

The next place we come to is Windmill Point, approximately 5-miles, or 9-kilometers, from Point Abino.

Both of these locations have a Fort Erie, Ontario, postal code.

The Windmill Point Lighthouse was less well-known than the Point Abino Lighthouse, and unlike the one at Point Abino, no longer exists.

We are told the name Windmill Point refers to a community that developed when Loyalist settler Silas Carter built a grist mill here, and a place where farmers from across the region brought their grain to be milled.

Then we are told as shipping increased on Lake Erie, a lighthouse was established at the Windmill Point location to help vessels navigate the shoreline.

Crystal Beach is located in-between Point Abino and Windmill Point.

This was the location of the historic Crystal Beach Amusement Park.

It first opened in 1888 and was in operation until 1989.

In 1896, the Ontario Southern Railway began to provide a connection between the park and the mainline rail station in Ridgeway.

There is no active rail station in Ridgeway today.

The original Grand Trunk Railway Station was moved in 1975 and is now part of the Fort Erie Railway Museum…

…and the rails through here have been converted into the Friendship Trail multi-use path, which runs for 15-miles, or 24-kilometers, from Fort Erie to Port Colborne parallel to the north shore of Lake Erie.

Ferry service had connected the park with nearby Buffalo starting in 1890s, and ferries like the SS Canadiana operated between Buffalo and Crystal Beach Park from 1910 to 1956.

The park was known for its innovative roller coasters, most notably the “Backety-Back Scenic Railway,” which was in operation from 1909 to 1926…

…the “Cyclone,” pictured here next to the “Crystal Ball Room,” and the “Cyclone” was in operation from 1927 to 1946…

…and the “Comet,” which was in operation at Crystal Beach from 1948 to 1989 when the amusement park closed.

It was subsequently relocated to “The Great Escape Fun Park” in Queensbury, New York, in 1994 and is still in operation today.

The Crystal Ball Room at Crystal Beach first opened in the spring of 1925 as the largest unobstructed dance hall in North America, which could hold up to 3,000 dancers on its gleaming wooden floor.

We are told it was built by George C. Hall Sr, and featured a unique cantilevered design with no interior support posts or beams.

It was a popular venue during the Big Band era.

Its fate was ultimately demolition after the Crystal Beach Amusement Park closed in 1989.

This brings us towards the end of our journey around Lake Erie as we next head into Fort Erie.

Here I am going to take a look at places like, but not limited to, the International Railway Bridge, the Peace Bridge, and Old Fort Erie.

The International Railway Bridge and the Peace Bridge connects Fort Erie, Ontario, and Buffalo, New York.

First, the International Railway Bridge.

A steel-truss swing bridge, it is said to be oldest bridge at this location.

We are told it was originally been constructed between 1870 and 1873 for the International Bridge Company to provide an American link to connect the Grand Trunk Railway of Canada with American lines and designed and built by Sir Casimir Gzowski, and we are told that it was later strengthened in 1901.

It was a crucial trade link in the 19th-century and is still in use for freight traffic by the Canadian National and Canadian Pacific Railways today.

Sir Casimir Gzowski was a Polish-born Canadian civil engineer and political figure known for his work on a wide variety of Canadian Railways in our historical narrative, including, but not limited to, the New York and Erie Railway; the Atlantic and St. Lawrence Railway; and sections of the Grand Trunk Railway.

He was knighted by Queen Victoria in 1897.

At its peak in the mid-20th century, the Fort Erie yard was one of CN’s principal maintenance and interchange facilities in southern Ontario and included a large classification yard; diesel and car repair shops; a roundhouse and turntable; and connections to the International Railway Bridge, making it a key gateway between Canada and the United States.

The railway was so central to the town that historical accounts estimate more than half of Fort Erie’s workforce was employed by the railways during the industry’s heyday.

The former CN Railyard in Fort Erie was closed around 1989, and was turned into the Niagara Railway Museum.

Everything else that was once there, including the Roundhouse, is long-gone, like what we saw at the CN – Flat Rock Yard back in Michigan.

On the American-side, Canadian rail traffic is received by the Black Rock Railyard.

We are told the railyard was built as the northern terminus of the Buffalo and Black Rock Railroad, a horse-powered line from downtown Buffalo.

The railyard is surrounded by old residential neighborhoods and some abandoned industrial facilities.

Most of the rail-bed in the yard has been ripped up.

The nearby Black Rock Lock allows vessels to bypass rapids on the Niagara River at the outlet of Lake Erie.

We are told the Black Rock Lock was the first lock was constructed by the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers in 1833 for the Erie Canal, and that it was enlarged in 1913.

The Erie Canal in New York State runs for 351-miles, or 565-kilometers, between Lake Erie at Buffalo to the Hudson River near Albany.

It was said to have been constructed starting on July 4th of 1817 and first opened on October 26th of 1825.

In our historical narrative, the opening of the Erie Canal made it the first navigable waterway connecting the Atlantic region to the Great Lakes, and accelerated the settlement of the Great Lakes region, the westward expansion of the United States as it greatly reduced the cost of transporting people and goods across the Appalachian mountains.

The Richardson-Olmsted Complex is also near this location.

We are told that the Richardson-Olmsted Complex is in the architectural-style called Richardsonian Romanesque, after architect Henry Hobson Richardson, who was said to have first used elements of this style in what was originally the Buffalo State Asylum for the Insane which he was said to have designed in 1870, and for which Frederick Law Olmsted was the landscape architect.

Like the previously-mentioned Northern Michigan Asylum in Traverse City, the Kirkbride Plan treatment for people with mental illness was implemented here.

The Buffalo State Asylum for the Insane was closed for that purpose in the 1970s, and became known as the Richardson-Olmsted Complex, and it was repurposed as a hotel which opened in 2023.

Also like the former Northern Michigan Asylum, The Village at Grand Traverse Commons,” it is considered to be haunted, and not only that, one of the most haunted places in Buffalo, if not western New York.

The Peace Bridge is located to the south of the International Railway Bridge.

We are told the idea of a bridge joining the United States and Canada was discussed as early as 1853, though actual construction of the bridge didn’t start until August 17th of 1925, and first opened on June 1st of 1927.

Typically we don’t ask questions about what we are told, because why on Earth would we be lied to, but consider if what we have been told about the construction is consistent with the engineering required to build these massive bridges.

The lasr place I am going to look at is Old Fort Erie.

Now the Fort Erie National Historic Site of Canada, we are told the original Old Fort Erie was constructed by the British in 1764 as a supply depot for British troops after the 1763 Treaty of Paris, signed at the end of the French and Indian War, in which France ceded its territories east of the Mississippi River to Great Britain.

It served as a supply depot and port for ships transporting merchandise, troops and passengers via Lake Erie to the Upper Great Lakes.

Most of the present fort was said to have been built between 1805 and 1808.

During the War of 1812, we are told the Americans attacked Fort Erie twice; captured it and abandoned it in 1813; then recaptured it in 1814; and abandoned it when they returned to Buffalo in the winter of 1814.

This concludes my 9-part series around all of the Great Lakes, which started a year ago when I posted the first part on Lake Superior on June 8th of 2025.

In this series, I have looked in-depth at cities and places all around the shores of Lake Superior, Lake Michigan, Lake Huron, Lake Ontario, and Lake Erie, paying particular attention to lighthouses; railroad and streetcar history; waterfalls, wetlands and dunes; interstates and highways; golf courses, airports and race tracks; major corporate players; mines and mining; labor relations; and many other things.

In particular, by following the location of lighthouses and waterfalls around the Great Lakes, this particular focus has yielded a great deal of information as to what I believe happened here and about our hidden history.

I believe there was a highly-sophisticated and highly-controlled hydrological and electrical system throughout the Great Lakes Region that was an integral part of the Earth’s original free energy grid system, and I have done my best to show you with the information I have found along the way exactly why I believe, among many other things, that the destruction of the original energy grid created the landscape we see today, and that the Great Lakes were formed from tremendous amounts of water from the outflow of the waterfalls and the interconnected hydrological system when the original energy grid was destroyed and as quickly as possible, was replaced by nonrenewable energy resources that exist in limited supplies.

The research for this series has taken around a month to complete for each part, and there’s a lot of information in each one, but I have barely scratched the surface of the hidden information that is available to find tucked away in this region.

I am seeing the consistent presence of dunes, deserts, swamps, marshes, bogs, and places where it appears land masses sheared-off and submerged under the bodies of water we see today from my research tracking leylines all over the Earth, looking from place-to-place at cities in alignment over long-distances; and from geographically-focused research, like looking at what is found along the shorelines of each of the Great Lakes.

My primary focus will be on dune systems I have encountered over the years, but I will be talking about other things as well as I go through my findings in this post.

My working hypothesis is that the circuit board of the Earth’s original free-energy grid system was deliberately blown out by one or more forms of directed frequency or energy, subsequently destroying the surface of the Earth, and which prior to this event looked quite different than what we see in the world today.

I am going to begin with my research findings in the Great Lakes region of North America, with examples primarily of dune systems from Lake Superior, Lake Michigan and Lake Huron, but I will also be showing some of the lighthouses, rail infrastructure, and waterfalls in the vicinity of these places.

It is important to note that all of the Great Lakes are quite shallow, in particular along their shorelines, but with some shallower than others throughout the lake-bodies and surrounding areas, with the orange, yellow, and green colors in these bathymetry graphics showing a range in depth from 0 to 100-meters, or 328-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 are severe weather, heavy cargo and navigational challenges, but it’s clear to me that the shallow depths of all the lakes are highly problematic in this regard and the question becomes why are they so shallow?

I truly believe the Great Lakes were formed relatively recently, from the destruction of the original free energy grid, the infrastructure of which included, among other things, lighthouses, railways, canals and waterfalls, and do not believe what our narrative tells us about how and when everything came into existence.

Here are some examples of what I am talking about first from Lake Superior.

The Grand Sable Dunes on Lake Superior run 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.

It is my opinion we are looking at ruined land and that there is infrastructure beneath the dunes, and I will be providing examples of why I believe this throughout this video.

Other places located at this end of the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore include Sable Falls, which flow 75-feet, or 23-meters, over sandstone formations directly into Lake Superior.

It is my belief that waterfalls were an integral part of the original free-energy grid as well, and believe that the destruction of the grid in this region created the Great Lakes by the outflow of tremendous amounts of water from the waterfalls which was connected to the original grid’s hydroelectric system, which also involved the canal, railroad, and lighthouse infrastructure.

I have looked at this subject in-depth most recently throughout my series on North America’s Great Lakes, where I have looked at places all along the shores of Lake Superior, Lake Michigan, Lake Huron, Lake Ontario, and Lake Erie, where I have paid particular attention to lighthouses; railroad and streetcar history; waterfalls; dunes, wetlands, and bluffs, among many other things.

Here’s another example on Lake Huron.

The Sauble Falls are located in the Sauble Falls Provincial Park in the town of South Bruce Peninsula, located 22-miles, or 36-kilometers west of Owen Sound.

The Sauble Falls are in the lower drainage basin of the Sauble River, which flows directly into Lake Huron.

We are told that the former town of Sauble Falls was founded in 1864 to support the logging industry, and that a sawmill was built at the falls.

Then we are told between 1905 and 1907, the Sauble Falls Light and Power Company built a hydroelectric station and dam, which became part of Ontario Hydro in 1929.

We are told that around the same time, in the late 1920s, the lumber supply was depleted.

Over time, the townsite was gradually dismantled and that in 1957, the Province of Ontario took ownership of the area, and opened the Sauble Falls Provincial Park.

Back on Lake Superior, the Au Sable Point Lighthouse is also located in the area of the Grand Sable Dunes and Sable Falls, and it is nicknamed the “Beacon of the Shipwreck Coast,” so named for all the shipwrecks that have taken place here.

The lighthouse at this location was said to have been built between 1873 and 1874, and is in perfect alignment with the Milky Way.

Like everything else we have been told to explain what is in existence in our world, I 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 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.

I am not drawing these conclusions from a few examples, but from many that I have found in years of doing research, including a lot of work tracking cities and places in alignment all over the Earth.

The city of Munising in Michigan is best known as the western gateway to “Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore.”

The “Pictured Rocks” are described as dramatic, multicolored cliffs with unusual sandstone formations.

Formations with names like “Miners Castle Rock…”

…and the Grand Portal Rock as seen in this lithograph from 1851…

…which mysteriously collapsed in the early 1900s, from the believed cause of erosion but no one really knows what might have caused it.

There are all manner of what are called natural archways all along the lakeshore, like the one called “Lovers Leap.”

Another unusual formation was named “Chapel Rock.”

It’s not hard to see ruined and melted infrastructure in these rock formations that we are taught result solely from the forces of nature.

Also important to reiterate here that the “Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore” is located geographically right next to the Au Sable Point Lighthouse, the Sable Falls and the Grand Sable Dunes.

I’d also like to mention the Lake Superior and Ishpeming (LS & I) Railroad that still operates in the area.

It was organized in 1893 as a subsidiary of Cleveland-Cliffs Iron Company, which mined iron ore, and based out of nearby Marquette, Michigan.

The LS & I Railroad merged in 1923 with the Munising, Marquette and Southeastern (MM & SE) Railway, a short-line running 40-miles, or 64-kilometers, east to Munising, which ran through thickly-forested pulpwood on Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, which was used for timber operations by Cleveland-Cliffs, an iron ore and timber-extraction conglomerate.

Michigan Highway 28 traverses nearly all of the Upper Peninsula from east-to-west, from Wakefield to Sault Ste. Marie, and along with US-2, form the primary highways linking the Upper Peninsula from end-to-end, and providing major access for traffic from Michigan and Canada along the southern shore of Lake Superior.

The “Seney Stretch” of Michigan State Highway 28 between Seney and Shingleton, a “straight-as-an-arrow” highway, goes across the “Great Manistique Swamp.”

The “Great Manistique Swamp” which is part of the Seney National Wildlife Refuge, which includes the Seney Wilderness Area and the “Strangmoor Bog National Natural Landmark.”

The “Strangmoor Bog” is classifed as a “sub-arctic patterned bog ecosystem,” and the best surviving example of one in the 48 contiguous states, and has things like parallel strips of dune and wetland.

We are told the road across the swamp was built parallel to the previously-mentioned “Duluth, South Shore and Atlantic Railway.”

The “Duluth, South Shore and Atlantic Railway” in-turn became what was called the “Soo Line.”

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.

I think the Controllers’ removed the rail-lines that were originally part of the energy grid when they were no longer needed for mining, logging 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.

Next, there are many examples from Lake Michigan that I am going to share in this post.

Lake Michigan has many sandy beaches and dune-systems, and is frequently referred to as the “Third Coast” of the United States after the Atlantic coast and the Pacific coast.

Called “singing sands,” the sand is often soft and white, or off-white, and squeaks when walked upon, believed to be caused by the high quartz content of the sand.

It’s important to note that the sand dunes located on the eastern shore of Lake Michigan are considered the largest freshwater dune system in the world.

Large dune formations can be seen in many state parks, national forests and national parks along the Michigan, Indiana and Wisconsin shoreline.

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

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.

Our historical narrative tells us that geological processes over long periods of time are responsible for what we see in the world today.

Like I’ve been saying, I believe all along the Earth’s coastlines there are ruined land and submerged landmasses from this recent cataclysmic event which destroyed the Earth’s original energy grid, along with creating land features like dunes, beaches, wetlands, and deserts.

This belief is at odds with the official explanation, which is that of a worldwide Great sea level rise as a result of melting glaciers from the last Ice Age and the expansion of seawater as it warms, and both are due to global warming.

The basis of the belief in Ice Ages in our modern scientific paradigm come from Sir Charles Lyell, who published “The Principles of Geology” in three volumes between 1830 and 1833.

In these books, Lyell presented the idea that the Earth was shaped by the same natural processes that are still operating today at similar intensities, and as such a proponent of “Uniformitarianism,” a gradualistic view of natural laws and processes occurring at the same rate now as they have always done.

As a result of Lyell’s work, the glacial theory gained acceptance between 1839 and 1846, and we are told during that time, scientists started to recognize the existence of ice ages, and do to this day.

Sir Charles Lyell’s books on “Uniformitarianism” and “Ice Ages” in geology became the only accepted model taught by Academia.

The issue is in contrast to the view of Catastrophism, the belief that changes in the Earth’s crust have resulted primarily from sudden violent and unusual events.

The Academic world supports Uniformitarianism without question as the only explanation for what we see in today’s world.

So I am going to start looking at the dunes of Lake Michigan at the Wilderness State Park in northern Michigan located at the western entrance to the Straits of Mackinac at the tip of Michigan’s Lower Peninsula.

The Wilderness State Park is described as a diverse forested, dune, and wetlands with swale complexes, with swale as a landform being defined as a sunken or marshy place.

The Wilderness State Park has also been designated as a “Dark Sky Preserve” since 2012, where light is restricted for astronomical observation and enjoyment, as seen here with a magnificent view of the Milky Way in the night sky.

The Waugoshance Lighthouse is in the Wilderness State Park, and called one of the most hazardous areas near the Straits of Mackinac.

The Waugoshance Lighhouse was said to have been built here in 1851, and is described as a ruined lighthouse in a shoal area that is 15-miles, or 24-kilometers, due west of Mackinaw City on the northern tip of Michigan’s Lower Peninsula, also known as “The Mitten.”

We are told that due to erosion and deterioration, that lighthouse is critically-endangered, and likely to fall into Lake Michigan in the near future.

Besides the ruined Waugoshance lighthouse, there are three other lighthouses near the western end of the Wilderness State Park – the Grays Reef Light Station; the White Shoal Light; and the Aux Galets Lighthouse.

The White Shoal Lighthouse is located 20-miles, or 32-kilometers, west of the Mackinac Bridge.

The construction of the current lighthouse here was said to have started in 1908, and first lit in 1910.

Here is the White Shoal Lighthouse with a solar alignment and the Mackinac Bridge with a solar alignment centered perfectly between the bridge’s two towers.

I believe solar alignments like these, which I find with lighthouses and other infrastructure all over the Earth, was intentional, with geometrica and precise placement in exact relationship to each other on the surface of the Earth and mirroring what was going on in the heavens.

Interestingly in this example, the placement of the lighthouse looks slightly offset with the alignment of the sunset behind it.

When you look at the relationship between the White Shoal Lighthouse and the Mackinac Bridge on Google Earth, it appears as though the slightly offset positioning of the lighthouse is oriented to the middle of the Mackinac Bridge.

And with regards to the name for the “White Shoal” Lighthouse, a shoal is defined as a place where a body of water is shallow, and where a ridge, bank or bar is close to the surface of the water, and poses a danger to navigation.

The next place I want to look at on Lake Michigan is the Leelanau Peninsula, also known as the “Little Finger,” and located in-between Lake Michigan and the Grand Traverse Bay on the mitten-shaped Lower Peninsula.

The Grand Traverse Lighthouse is located at the tip of the Leelanau Peninsula, where the Manitou Passage separates Lake Michigan and Grand Traverse Bay.

The current lighthouse was said to have been built in 1858, and is located today in Leelanau State Park.

This photo shows it in alignment with the Milky Way.

There is also a lighthouse on South Manitou Island, with the current one said to have been built in 1872, and decommissioned in 1958.

It is a museum these days.

This lighthouse also has an alignment with the Milky Way.

The North Manitou Shoal Light is located southeast of North Manitou Island, and it was said to have been constructed in 1935 to mark a dangerous shoal, and it is still in operation today.

Here’s a side-by-side comparison of the North Manitou Shoal Lighthouse and the White Shoal Lighthouse a little ways further north of here in Lake Michigan, showing an identical directional orientation and alignment with the setting sun.

The Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore is located on the western-side of the Leelanau Peninsula, and is also notable for its shipwrecks, so much so the bottomlands have been designated the “Manitou Passage Underwater Preserve.”

There are such places to visit and hike in the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore as Pyramid Point, known for its stunning views of Lake Michigan and the Manitou Islands and its sheer bluffs…

…the Empire Bluff Trail…

…and the Pierce Stocking Scenic Drive, a 7.4-mile, or 11.9-kilometer, drive through forest and dune areas and great views of Lake Michigan.

It was said to have been built in the 1960s and finished in 1967 by a lumberman named Pierce Stocking who wanted to share the beauty of the area with others.

When the word “sheer” is used to refer to a bluff or cliff, it means a high area of land with a very steep side.

One of the meanings of the word “shear” spelled with an “a” is to break off, or be cut off, sharply.

A “bluff” is a synonym of the word “cliff.”

Another meaning of the word “bluff” is a deception, or an attempt to deceive.

Now I am going to head on down the eastern coast of Lake Michigan to the Ludington area, which was originally named Pere Marquette.

We are told that the Jesuit explorer Father Jacques Marquette died near Ludington in 1675, and that in 1955, a memorial and 40-foot, or 12-meter, cross were built to mark the location.

We are told the Flint and Pere Marquette Railroad was chartered in January of 1857 to construct an east-west railway line from Flint in Michigan to Ludington, called Pere Marquette at the time, with the railroad completed to that location in 1874.

The Ludington Lighthouse is located at the end of the North Breakwater where the Pere Marquette River meets Lake Michigan in the Pere Marquette Harbor.

It was said to have been established in 1871 originally, and the structure there today was said to have been built in 1924.

Here is the Ludington Lighthouse in alignment with the setting sun.

The Big Sable Point Lighthouse is located on the other side of Ludington State Park from the Ludington Lighthouse, in the vicinity of the Nordhouse Dunes Wilderness Area.

The Big Sable Point Lighthouse was said to have been built in 1867, and is just a short-distance north of the Ludington State Park entrance.

We are told that construction materials were brought in by ship since there wasn’t a road to it until 1933, and even today the road to get there is sandy and you have to walk because motor vehicles are prohibited.

Also, this was the last Great Lakes lighthouse to get electricity and plumbing, which came in the late 1940s.

Here it is at sunset as well.

The Ludington State Park, of which the Big Sable Point Lighthouse is a part, is altogether 4,800-acres, or 1,900-hectares in size, with many different kinds of ecosystems, which include sand dunes, wetlands, marshlands and forests.

The Nordhouse Dunes Wilderness Area which is directly adjacent to the Ludington State Park is part of the Manistee National Forest lands, and managed by the U. S. Forest Service.

The federal government declared the Nordhouse Dunes area of the Manistee National Forest a wilderness in the Michigan Wilderness Act of 1987.

On 3,450-acres, or 1,396-hectares of land, it is the world’s most extensive set of freshwater dunes.

Continuing on down the coast a little ways,  the next area I am going to look at includes the Silver Lake State Park and the Little Sable Point Lighthouse.

First, Silver Lake State Park.

The Silver Lake State Park is 4-miles, or 6.4-kilometers, west of Mears in Oceana County, and on its almost 3,000-acres, or 1,200-hectares, of land, has along with mature forest land, has over 2,000-acres, or 810-hectares of sand dunes.

The Little Sable Point Lighthouse is located just south of Silver Lake State Park.

It was said to have been designed by Col. Orlando Poe, and finally constructed in 1874, after funding was approved by Congress in 1871.

Apparently construction was delayed because there weren’t any roads here either according to the official narrative.

Mears State Park is located north of Silver Lake at Pentwater, which is roughly half-way between the Ludington area and the Silver Lake area.

Mears State Park is comprised of 50-acres, or 20-hectares, of land on the north side of the Channel that connects Pentwater Lake to Lake Michigan.

The land on which Mears State Park is located was described as “strictly lake sand,” which was quickly eroded when the vegetation that held it in place was disturbed when the land was graded.

We are told this problem was solved with five-tons of marsh hay that were laid on top of it.

Mears State Park is known for its stunning sunsets, like this one behind the Pentwater North Pierhead Light.

Next, I am going to head down the coast to the Muskegon area, where we also find Hoffmaster State Park and the Gillette Sand Dune Visitor Center and sand dune ecosystem.

We are told that the earliest Europeans who visited the area were French explorers like the Jesuit Father Marquette and French soldiers under the explorer LaSalle in the late 1670s.

As a matter of fact, Pere Marquette Park is a beach-area that is located just to the south of the south breakwater and pier.

The Pere Marquette quartz-sand beach is bordered by large sand-dunes.

When I was looking for information about Pere Marquette Park, I came across the information that Lake Michigan Park occupied the north end of today’s Pere Marquette Park.

Lake Michigan Park was a trolley park on the beach that had a large roller coaster, dance hall, and pavilions where rail service was said to have been developed in the late 19th- and early-20th-centuries to encourage local and regional demand.

We are told the trolley park’s closure was linked to the decline of the trolley service, and the amusement park on the beach was torn down in 1930, and at some point became Pere Marquette Park.

The P. J. Hoffmaster State Park is located south of Norton Shores and the Muskegon County Airport, and just to the west of Highway 31.

It was established in 1963, and named after Percy James Hoffmaster, who was considered the founder of the Michigan State Parks system, and is a public recreation area with hiking trails, camping areas, and a beach.

The Gillette Sand Dune Visitor Center was named after Genevieve Gillette, a conservationist who scouted for new state park locations for P. J. Hoffmaster.

The Gillette Sand Dune Visitor Center is described as being nestled among one of the nation’s most impressive dune systems, and is itself perched on top of a large wooded dune.

US Highway Route 31 runs along the western portion of the Lower Peninsula of Michigan from Bertrand Township in Berrien County at the state line with Indiana to its terminus on I-75 south of Mackinaw City.

US Highway Route 31 is a major North-South Highway that runs from Spanish Fort in Alabama at the Junction of US-90 & US-98.

The northern terminus of Interstate 75 is Sault Ste. Marie in Michigan, which also goes all the way to Miami, Florida, at its southern terminus.

Next, the Saugatuck Dunes state park is located between Holland and Saugatuck.

The Saugatuck Dunes State Park is a largely undeveloped, 1,000-acre, or 400-hectare, public recreation area with a beach, and 14-miles of hiking trails and 200-foot, or 61-meter, -high sand dunes covered with trees and grass.

It is interesting to note that the estate of Dorr E. Felt is just to the north of the Saugatuck Dunes State Park.

Dorr E. Felt was known to history as the inventor of the Comptometer, an adding machine and calculator used by businesses.

Apparently, his invention made him a very wealthy man.

So much so, he could afford to build between 1925 and 1928, a 12,000-square-foot, or 1,115-square-meter, mansion, carriage house, farm house, and petting zoo, to be a summer home called “Shore Acres Farm” for he and his wife and children,

Sadly his wife Agnes passed away a couple of months after the family moved into the home, and he only outlived her by a couple of years, and the Felt family finally sold the property in 1949.

The property has also been used as a Catholic Seminary, and also as a prison by the State of Michigan.

The State of Michigan owned the grounds until the early 1990s, at which time it sold the property to the Laketown Township for $1, with the stipulation the Mansion would be used by the public, and not by private enterprise, and among other things, it is a popular wedding venue.

And interesting to note that it is also known for being haunted.

Further south in St. Joseph, Michigan, the Silver Beach County Park is located next to the channel known as the St. Joseph River.

At one time, Silver Beach was a trolley park and developed as a vacation resort, which first opened in 1891.

This amusement park on the beach had a roller coaster, roller skating rink, pipe organ, boxing ring, dance hall and carousel.

The carousel was restored to its former glory and can be found in the building to the right-side of this photo of the park facing Lake Michigan.

There is a fountain on the left called the Whirlpool Compass Fountain.

The Whirlpool Compass Fountain is described as a large splash pad with water jets that can be enjoyed in the spring and summer months.

I have no doubt there is more to this story as well.

We are told that in January of 1870, the Chicago and Michigan Lake Shore Railroad extended a rail-line from New Buffalo to St. Joseph, connecting it to Grand Rapids, Muskegon, Detroit, and Chicago.

It was reorganized as the Chicago and West Michigan Railway and then incorporated into the Pere Marquette Railroad.

Today it is part of the CSX Grand Rapids Subdivision which runs from Chicago to Grand Rapids, which includes Amtrak’s “Pere Marquette” passenger rail service once per day between the two cities, mostly along the southern shore of Lake Michigan.

Next, Grand Mere State Park is located between St. Joseph and Bridgman.

Grand Mere State Park is described as having “magnificent sand dunes and deep blow-outs,” and has several lakes and wetlands as well.

The park has almost two-miles, or 3.2-kilometers, of sandy beach that you have to climb over steep sand dunes on foot to get to because off-road vehicles have been banned.

Speaking of blow-outs, this is a good place to mention the New Madrid Earthquakes.

In our historical narrative, the series of earthquakes in the New Madrid region in the winter of 1811 – 1812 dramatically affected the landscape, causing bank failures along the Mississippi River; destroyed entire communities; caused landslides along the Chickasaw Bluffs in Tennessee and Kentucky; large tracts of land subsided on the Mississippi flood plain; and liquified subsurface sediment spread over a large area at great distances and was described as widespread and severe.

Sand blows, described as large sandy deposits resulting from an eruption of water and sand to the ground surface, formed over an area of 4,015-square-miles, or 10,400-square-kilometers.

So there are hints of something of a cataclysmic nature taking place found in our historical narrative, with the New Madrid Earthquakes having been estimated as the largest earthquakes ever recorded in the United States, that the USGS estimated were between 7 and 8 on the Richter Scale.

Descriptions of what happened during the first one included rolling ground; uprooted trees; huge chasms opening up and swallowing whatever was above; the Mississippi River flowing backwards; and general pandemonium from frightened people.

The St. Francis Sunken Lands Wildlife Management Area in northeastern Arkansas today was said to have sunk during the New Madrid earthquakes, turning once fertile and abundant landscape into a swamp.

These descriptions are actually a snapshot of what I believe took place across the entire surface of the Earth through the deliberate destruction of the original energy grid.

Then there are odd stories like these that go along with this historical event as well, like this one.

We are told after all of this devastation in the New Madrid Region, it took three-years to get federal action on disaster relief for the region with the onset of the War of 1812, with Congress finally approving $50,000 for the New Madrid Relief Act on February 17th of 1815, making it the nation’s first disaster relief of its kind.

The Act provided that anyone who lost land due to the earthquake was eligible to receive between 160 and 640 “like acres” of land elsewhere in Missouri.

But what we are told ended up happening was land agents arriving in the area to buy up the acreage and conned many New Madrid residents, offering them pennies on the dollar, and speculators subsequently claimed the new lands, and that of the 516 certificates issued by Congress, only 20 went to New Madrid residents, with most being held by people in St. Louis.

In the years following, the fertile flood-plain land was developed for growing cotton.

Today, New Madrid is the second-leading producer of cotton in the State of Missouri, and the percentage of organic farming in New Madrid County indicates none.

The next place we come to on Lake Michigan is the city of Bridgeman, which we are told was founded by lumbermen in 1856.

Then it was platted by George Bridgeman in 1870, and centered on a railroad station that opened that year.

The Warren Dunes State Park is in the southwest corner of the Lower Peninsula in Berrien County heading towards the state line with Indiana, just to the south of Bridgeman.

We are told the Warren Dunes State Park’s large sand dunes and lake shore beaches make it one of the most popular state parks of Michigan.

The Tower Hill Dune is one of the many large dunes found at the park, which is the highest point in the park standing at about 240-feet, or 73-meters, -high.

This park is a popular place for sandboarding because of easy access to the dunes.

Now I am going to cross the Indiana state line and next take a look at Michigan City; the Indiana Dunes; and Gary.

Michigan City is on the eastern side of the Indiana Dunes on the southern shore of Lake Michigan.

It is the northern terminus of what was originally the Michigan Road.

The Michigan Road was Indiana’s first “super-highway,” and said to have been constructed in the 1830s and 1840s between Madison, Indiana, and Michigan City, Indiana, by way of Indianapolis.

We are told the original Michigan Road pre-dated the “Plank Road Boom” by about 10 years or so.

In our historical narrative, the “Plank Road Boom” lasted in the United States from 1844 to the mid-1850s, with more than 10,000-miles, or 16,000-kilometers, of plank roads built across the country.

Newspapers and Magazines of the time, including the New York Tribune and Scientific American, extolled plank roads as being easy to construct and a way to transform the rural transit trade of the country.

As we see in these photos, plank roads are crossing over landscapes covered in sand and dunes.

Were the so-called “plank roads” actually re-purposed railroad tracks that were dug out of the sand?

What are we really looking at here?

I could find references to the original Michigan Road being unpaved, and hard to build because of “swampy land” in places.

I found this paper note guaranty from 1862, which would have been during the American Civil War, for a “plank road” here.

Interesting to see the masonry archway with the herded livestock underneath it in the lower-right-hand corner of the note.

The Michigan City Power Plant is west of the city’s downtown on the lake-shore next to the dunes, and is a coal-burning plant.

We are told that the origins of Michigan City go back to 1830, when real estate speculator Isaac Elston purchased land for the city, paying $200 for 160-acres, or 65-hectares, of land, and that by the time the city was incorporated in 1836, it had 1,500 residents; a post office; a newspaper; a church; a commercial district and ten hotels, having grown to a size of 15-square-miles, or 39-kilometers-squared in six-years.

I can’t help but notice the dunes along Michigan City’s lakeshore.

The next place we come to after Michigan City are the Indiana Dunes.

Designated as the nation’s newest National Park in February of 2019, the Indiana Dunes National Park runs 20-miles, or 32-kilometers, along the southern shore of Lake Michigan.

It had been designated as a National Lakeshore by Congress in 1966.

The Indiana Dunes State Park is within the boundaries of the National Park, and was first established in 1925 by Richard Lieber, a German-American businessman/conservationist who was the founder of the Indiana State Park System.

There have been five groups of mounds documented in the Indiana Dunes area.

The Indiana Dunes are to the northwest between Fort Wayne and Lake Michigan, and the Great Black Swamp is to the northeast between Fort Wayne and Lake Erie.

I absolutely believe there is much infrastructure to be unccovered from the original civilization underneath all that sand and all that land!

When I was looking into the “North Bend Rail Trail” in West Virginia between Cairo and Ellenboro, I found out that it was part of the “American Discovery Trail” that runs from coast-to-coast through 15-states and the District of Columbia, and is the only non-motorized trail that crosses the country.

Interestingly, the “American Discovery Trail” includes the Indiana Dunes Discovery Trail, which is called one of the most biodiverse areas in the United States, and includes sand dunes and wetlands, including bogs, existing right next to each other in the same location, and both are beside railroad tracks, circled on the bottom right.

The South Shore Line runs in this part of Indiana starting in South Bend, and goes between Michigan City just to the east of the Indiana Dunes, to Gary, Indiana, located just to the west of the Indiana Dunes, on its way to Chicago, Illinois.

The Cleveland-Cliffs Steel Plant is located on the west side of the Indiana Dunes National Park.

Operated by Cleveland-Cliffs Inc, it is the world’s largest producer of flat-rolled steel.

The next place we come to is the location of Gary, Indiana, which is geographically very close to the Indiana Dunes.

I first looked into the Indiana Dunes and Gary when I was doing the research for “Trekking the Serpent Ley,” going place-to-place on a long-distance ley-line from the Bermuda Triangle to Lake Itasca in Minnesota that was identified by gaiagrapher Peter Champoux.

Peter’s work can be found on his website geometryofplace.com.

This is what we are told about Gary, Indiana.

Gary was named after Elbert Henry Gary, a founder of U. S. Steel in 1901, along with J. P. Morgan, Andrew Carnegie, and Charles M. Schwab, and he was the second President of U. S. Steel, from 1903 to 1911.

In June of 1906, the location of what became the city of Gary, about 26-miles, or 42-kilometers, east of Chicago, Illinois, was a wasteland of drifting sand and patches of scrub oak.

No one lived there, and there was no agricultural value to the land.

Three or four railroads passed through the area and the Grand Calumet River wound its way around sand dunes to get to Lake Michigan.

It was in June of 1906 that the first shovelful of sand was turned for the creation of the new steel town of Gary.

Laborers were housed in tents and shacks, and were digging trenches as very little work was being done above-ground.

And that by 1908, the city of Gary had taken on its shape and form!

Gary was heralded as a “Magic City,” having been transformed from sand dunes in record time!

Gary was established to be the “company town” for U. S. Steel, and became home to the largest steel mill complex in the world, with its operation starting in June of 1908, only two-years after the first shovelful of sand was turned at this location.

Do I believe the official story?

Absolutely not!

I think Gary is a great example of the infrastructure buried beneath the sand dunes here and around the world that hasn’t seen the light-of-day for a very long time!

The next place going around Lake Michigan that we come to is Chicago.

I just want to mention something here about the World’s Fair in Chicago known as the World’s Columbian Exposition in 1893, said to have been held in 1893 to celebrate the 400th-anniversary of Christopher Columbus’ arrival in the New World in 1492.

We are told the Fair also served to show the world that Chicago had risen from the ashes of the Great Chicago Fire of 1871, only 22-years earlier.

This was the map of the South Park Commission Site for the World’s Columbian Exposition of Jackson Park, Washington Park, and the Midway Plaisance.

As the person responsible for planning the basic land- and water-shape of the exposition grounds, we are told that the famed landscape architect Frederick Law Olmsted concluded the marshy areas of Jackson Park could be converted into waterways, and that workers dredged sand out of the marshes to make lagoons of different shapes and sizes.

We are told the area known as Wood Island was described as a sandy area along Chicago’s lakeshore that looked like a deserted marsh before construction began, but that Olmsted saw the area’s potential, and that he included lagoons in his design since this area had not been developed yet.

According to our historical narrative, Olmsted’s Jackson Park was left as a legacy for Chicagoans to enjoy, which has one of the only two buildings left standing after the end of the 1893 Columbian Exposition – the building which today houses the Museum of Science and Industry.

The other is the Art Institute of Chicago in Grant Park.

Now I am going to go up the western coast of Lake Michigan from Chicago to Illinois Beach State Park, which is located on Lake Michigan in-between Waukegan in Illinois and Kenosha in Wisconsin.

The Illinois Beach State Park forms most of the Chiwaukee Prairie Illinois Beach Lake Plain, an internationally-recognized wetland of importance under the Ramsar Convention.

I first became aware of the Ramsar Convention when I was tracking a long-distance alignment through the Strait of Hormuz between the Gulf of Oman and the Persian Gulf.

The Ramsar Convention is an international treaty that was first signed in February of 1971 in Ramsar, Iran, and is reviewed every three-years by the contracting international parties.

It designated sites, known as “Ramsar Sites,” to be considered of international importance when it comes to the conservation and sustainable use of wetlands.

As one example, the United Arab Emirates as a whole has eight Ramsar wetlands sites.

The Ramsar Convention defines wetlands as “areas of marsh, fen, peat, or water, whether natural or artificial, permanent or temporary, with water that is static or flowing, fresh, brackish or salt, including areas of marine water, the depth of which at low tide does not exceed 20-feet, or 6-meters.

The Chiwaukee Prairie to the north of Illinois Beach at the state line with Wisconsin includes grassy wetlands, wooded areas, and the Kenosha Sand Dunes, one of the few remaining dune systems in southeastern Wisconsin.

You can also find megalithic stone blocks lining the beach at the Kenosha Sand Dunes location.

The Kenosha Lighthouses are also visible from the Kenosha Sand Dunes.

The 200-mile, or 322-kilometer, -long Milwaukee Electric Railway and Light Company (TMER&L) was an electric railway and interurban system that connected the cities of southeastern Wisconsin along the southwestern shore of Lake Michigan from the late 1800s to the mid-1900s.

Why go through the time, energy and effort to construct a sophisticated interurban electric streetcar system, for example, only to use it for such a short period of time?

Further up in Milwaukee, the North Point Lighthouse was said to have been built in 1888 to mark the entrance to the Milwaukee River.

We are told the first lighthouse was built on this sandy bluff in 1855, but that in the late 1880s, it was jeopardized by the erosion of the bluff and plans were made to replace it.

So by 1888, this lighthouse was built 100-feet, or 30-meters, in from the edge of the bluff.

This photo of the North Point lighthouse next to the bluff was dated 1890.

It is interesting to note that the North Point Water Tower is in the vicinity of the North Point Lighthouse.

The massive North Point Water Tower was said to have been constructed between 1873 and 1874 as part of Milwaukee’s first public waterworks in the Victorian Gothic-style.

We are told that the elaborate limestone masonry of the water tower was built to house the wrought-iron standpipe and to keep it from freezing.

Further on up the western shore of Lake Michigan from Milwaukee, we come to the Kohler-Andrae State Park.

Kohler-Andrae State Park are two adjacent Wisconsin State Parks, the Terry Andrae State Park, which was established in 1927; and the John Michael Kohler State Park, which was established in 1966.

The parks contain over 2-miles, or 3-kilometers, of sand dunes along Lake Michigan’s shoreline, with woods and wetlands away from the water.

The Black River flows through the parks.

The next place is the Point Beach State Forest is just to the north of Manitowoc.

It is located along 6-miles or 9.7-kilometers, of the Lake Michigan shore, and has a beach and camping areas.

The state forest grounds contain the National Natural Landmark called the “Point Beach Ridges,” a series of alternating dune ridges and swales.

Just to share an example of another National Natural Landmark that comes to mind with you is what are called “Monument Rocks,” also known as the “Chalk Pyramids,” in Kansas.

The amazing thing for a so-called National Natural Landmark are the solar and lunar alignments found at “Monument Rocks.”

The Point Beach State Forest grounds also contain the Rawley Point Lighthouse, said to have been constructed there in 1873, and is the tallest lighthouse on the Wisconsin shore of Lake Michigan.

Next, we are heading into the landform known as the “Door Peninsula.”

The Door Peninsula separates Lake Michigan from the southern part of the Green Bay.

The Door Peninsula in Wisconsin is on the western-side of the Niagara Escarpment.

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.

It’s important to note that when I saw this map of the region’s waterfalls, it struck me how many there are on the Ontario side of Lake Huron and the Georgian Bay, including a series of waterfalls running along the Niagara Escarpment from Niagara Falls.

In the course of doing the research for the series on the Great Lakes, I came to understand deeply that the Georgian Bay of Lake Huron is formed by the Niagara Escarpment.

Come to find out, the whole Niagara Escarpment is loaded with waterfalls, with at least seventeen waterfalls on the Bruce Trail alone.

The Bruce Trail is a hiking trail that runs along the Niagara Escarpment for 250-miles, or 400-kilometers, from the Niagara River to Tobermary, a small community at the northern tip of the Bruce Peninsula.

It is the oldest and longest marked hiking trail in Canada.

Back in Wisconsin, limestone outcroppings are visible on both sides of the Door Peninsula, but are larger and more prominent on the Green Bay-side, as seen at the Bayshore Blufflands State Natural Area, which contains more than 7-miles, or 11-kilometers, of the Niagara Escarpment.

Progressions of dunes are seen on much of the rest of the shoreline, as seen at the Whitefish Dunes State Park.

Whitefish Dunes State Park and Natural Area preserves the largest and most significant dune landscape in Wisconsin, and offers trails and picnic areas for visitors.

It is also heavily forested, with such trees as birch, fir, cedar, yew, maple, aspen, hemlock and beech.

Whitefish Dunes State Park also has a stone-masonry-looking shoreline.

Sturgeon Bay is the largest city of the Door Peninsula and a popular tourist destination.

In 1874, Sturgeon Bay was incorporated as a village, and as a city in 1883.

In the 19th-century, Sturgeon Bay became a center of stone quarrying, with five quarries shipping limestone throughout the region.

I strongly suspect that the stone quarries, here and elsewhere in the world, were harvesting megalithic stone blocks from existing infrastructure.

Next, the city of Green Bay is at the southern end of the Green Bay, which is an arm of Lake Michigan and the largest bay on Lake Michigan, and is located right next to the Door Peninsula.

There’s a lot here, but I am just going to share about the remants of what is called the first Long Tail Lighthouse.

It was said to have been built in 1848, and was in use for only ten years, from 1849 to 1859.

It sits long-abandoned on Long Tail Point, a sandbar next to the channel near the city of Green Bay.

This 1867 survey map of the harbor around Green Bay shows the sand bars and mud there.

Now, I am going to head over to Lake Huron and take a look at a few places there, starting with some of the things found on the lakeshore at a municipality there called Lambton Shores, in particular Ipperwash Beach and Pinery Provincial Park.

Ipperwash Beach there is situated between what is called “The Point” and Pinery Provincial Park.

Ipperwash Beach is one of the longest freshwater beaches in Ontario.

Beach access here is limited to public access areas.

The Ipperwash Dunes & Swales is described as a Carolinian forest of sand ridges and wet swales that cover over 500-acres, or 202-hectares, that can be visited by way of a 3-mile, or 5-kilometer, boardwalk trail.

A Carolinian Forest features deciduous trees like beech, black walnut, hickory, maple and oak.

And, as I mentioned earlier, swales are landforms that are defined as a sunken or marshy place.

The Sand Hills Golf Club and Resort is sandwiched in-between Ipperwash Beach, Ipperwash Dunes and Swales, and Pinery Provincial Park.

I also consistently find golf courses along leylines and shorelines, and believe them to have been earthworks that provided “links,” which is another name for golf course, between all the components of the original energy grid that we know nothing about.

We are told the Pinery Provincial Park was created to help preserve an oak savannah and dune ecosystem, and that the initial package for the land was purchased from the Canada Company in 1857.

The Canada Company was created in August of 1826, under the Canada Company Act of 1825 of the British Parliament, to aid in the colonization of a large part of Upper Canada.

We are told that the Canada Company was successful in populating an area called the Huron Tract, which was called the “most single important attempt at settlement in Canadian history,” and which resulted in the Anishinabek people being dispossessed of their ancestral lands.

The Huron Tract happens to be the land that we are looking at here.

The Huron Tract included the town of Goderich, which is noteworthy for a number of things, including its railroad history.

The Menesetung Bridge in historic Goderich is a pedestrian bridge today, but was historically a railroad bridge.

It crosses the Maitland River near its entrance to Lake Huron, and was said to have been constructed between 1906 and 1907.

The Beach Street Train Station in Goderich was said to have been built on the beach at the same time as the Menesetung Bridge in 1907 at the terminus of the Guelph and Goderich Railroad, and served as a railway hub for passenger service until 1956 and freight until 1988, after which time it fell into disrepair.

In Kincardine, just up the shore of Lake Huron from Goderich, Station Beach is directly across the Kincardine Marina from the Lighthouse and the mouth of the Penetangore River.

So I looked to see if there was a railroad connection to “Station Beach,” and found that yes in fact there was one.

Station Beach was at one time the location of the Kincardine Railway Station.

We are told that the train station was constructed with the opening of the Grand Trunk Railway line in 1872.

Trains stopped operating in Kincardine in 1983, and the tracks were removed.

The Kincardine Trails Association manages trails in the surrounding area, including the former railroad lines.

Now I am going to look at other places with a history of dunes, deserts, lighthouses, and railroads, which I have found along leylines I have tracked long-distances.

There are a number of places that I would like like to share from when I was looking at what is found on the leyline between the Quetzelcoatl Pyramid in Teotichuacan in Mexico and the Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt.

In Part 2 of this series, the leyline from Teotihuacan enters the United States at Panama City Beach in western Florida at the Sunnyside Beach and Tennis Resort, and the eastern tip Lake Powell is directly on the leyline.

Lake Powell is the largest coastal dune lake in North America, and is designated as one of the Outstanding Florida Waters because of its pristine condition and ecological rarity, as these freshwater coastal dune lakes are found only in western Florida, South Carolina, Oregon, Madagascar, New Zealand, and Australia.

Lake Powell’s water is brackish, as there is a continuous mixing of freshwater from upland freshwater systems and saltwater from a meandering outlet to the sea.

Now I am going to head-over to where this leyline leaves the United States at Carova Beach, at the Virginia -North Carolina State Line, which is a small unincorporated community in North Carolina.

Carova Beach is part of the Albemarle-Pamlico Estuarine System.

The combined estuary has over 3,000-square-miles, or 7,800-kilometers-squared, of open water, making it the second-largest estuary in the United States, after the Chesapeake Bay just to the north of it.

An “estuary” is defined as a partially-enclosed, coastal body of brackish water, which is water that is salty, dirty & unpleasant, with one or more rivers flowing into it, and a connection to the open sea.

It is also my opinion that what we are told were “natural” rivers were once actually man-made canal systems.

Carova Beach is the northernmost community in the northern Outer Banks of North Carolina.

There are sand dunes found in the Outer Banks, like those at Jockey’s Ridge State Park at Nag’s Head.

Jockey’s Ridge is called the tallest active sand dune system in the eastern United States, and is just a short distance south of where this pyramid alignment leaves the United States at Carova Beach.

The Outer Banks are described as a row of low, sandy barrier islands, where we find more historic forts said to have been built by the Confederacy at the beginning of the Civil War in 1861.

The Outer Banks also has five historic lighthouses along the coast line of the barrier islands of the Outer Banks.

Barrier Islands are classified as shoals that are called a natural submerged ridge or bank covered by sand or some other material that rises from the bed of a body of water close to the surface that poses a danger to navigation, as the Albermarle-Pamlico Sound and its ocean inlets are noted for wide-expanses of shallow water.

As a matter of fact, exactly like what is found in the Great Lakes region, the treacherous and shallow waters of the Outer Banks have given it the nickname of “Graveyard of the Atlantic” because of the numerous shipwrecks that have occurred here.

Like Carova Beach, the Dismal Swamp State Park is also located at the border with North Carolina and Virginia, and part of the larger Great Dismal Swamp of the coastal plain region between Norfolk in southeastern Virginia and Elizabeth City in northeastern North Carolina.

The adjoining Northwest River Natural Area Preserve is in Virginia, and the Northwest River Marsh and Gameland in North Carolina.

This is a map of historical railroad trackage in Virginia and North Carolina circa 1882, which includes the area in southeastern Virginia and Elizabeth City in northeastern North Carolina where the Great Dismal Swamp is located.

And again, they really want us to believe that they built the railroad through all the swampy wetlands.

What became the “Norfolk Southern” railroad started out as the Elizabeth City and Norfolk Railroad Company in 1870, and by 1883 it was operating as the Norfolk Southern Railroad through there until 1974.

This railroad paralleled the Dismal Swamp Canal and was said to have competed with both canals for freight and passengers.

Next, I would like to take a close look at the places and areas where the leyline enters western France from the Quetzelcoatl Pyramid in Teotihuacan in Mexico on its way to the Pyramid of Giza in Egypt, where the leyline goes in-between the Medoc Regional Natural Park in the yellow box on the top; and Arcachon and Arcachon Bay in the yellow box on the bottom.

First, the top yellow box on the left-side of the screenshot is highlighting the “Medoc Regional Natural Park” in the Gironde Department of the Nouvelle Aquitaine region, and described as “dunes, marshes, ponds, lakes, lagoons, and forests.”

It is bordered to the East by the Gironde Estuary and to the west by the Bay of Biscay, a gulf of the northeast Atlantic Ocean.

The Medoc Regional Natural Park extends from the gates of the Bordeaux Metropole…

…to the Pointe-de-Grave, the northernmost tip of the Medoc Peninsula, which has historic lighthouses, star forts, and a railroad line along the eastern edge to Bordeaux.

There are historic lighthouses still standing around the edges of the peninsula, which are called “Phares” in French.

The Grave Lighthouse is located directly on the Pointe de Grave, and is a museum today.

The Grave Lighthouse on the Pointe-de-Grave is located close to the Pointe-de-Grave Train station and Fort du Verdon.

The French National Route 215 on the left closely approximates the route of the railroad line between La Pointe de Grave and Bordeaux across the Medoc Peninsula between those two places.

On the Atlantic-side of the Medoc Regional Natural Park, there are five lighthouses still in operation.

The Cordouan Lighthouse is located 4-miles, or 7-kilometers, out into the open sea, located at the mouth of the Gironde Estuary, and was said to have been built between 1594 and 1611.

This is what it looks like inside the Cordouan Lighthouse.

The Saint-Nicolas Lighthouse is located on the Dune of LaClair on the Pointe-de-Grave and forms an alignment with the Cordouan Lighthouse and Grave Lighthouse.

The Hourtin Dunes and Marshes National Nature Reserve – a system of dunes, marshes and large lakes – is on the coastal strip in the western part of the Medoc Regional Natural Park.

There are two lighthouses at the Hourtin Dunes location, situated 650-feet, or 200-meters, apart from each other on a north-south axis, and said to have been built in 1860 on the coastal dunes of Hourtin.

Lastly at this location on the Medoc Peninsula is the Cap Ferret Lighthouse.

The original lighthouse here at the entrance to Arcachon Bay was said to have been built between 1839 and 1840; destroyed by the Germans in 1944; and rebuilt in 1947 to look the same as the first one.

This is part of the same rail infrastructure that connects the Pointe-de-Grave with Bordeaux along the western edge of the Gironde Estuary.

When I was looking around for more information on this region off the coast of western France, I stumbled upon a whole lot of star forts and batteries, and another lighthouse, in the Pertuis d’Antioche straits on and around the Ile d’Aix and the Ile d’Oleron.

Over the course of years of doing research along the Earth’s leylines, I have found other island locations loaded with star forts and batteries, which we have always been told were military fortifications in our narrative.

This includes places like the small island of Bermuda in the North Atlantic Ocean…

…and the Fernando de Noronha islands, off the coast of Brazil near the city of Natal.

Here are historic drawings of eight of the ten I found out about on Fernando da Noronha within an archipelago whose area totals 10-square miles, 26-kilometers squared.

Both Bermuda and Fernando da Noronha are in the Atlantic Ocean, separated by 3,277-miles, or 5,274-kilometers.

Alderney in the Channel Islands of the English Channel between southern England and northern France is also loaded with star forts.

Alderney Island is only 3-miles, or 5-kilometers, -long, and 1 1/2-miles, or 2.4-kilometers, -wide.

Alderney is the northernmost of the inhabited Channel Islands.

Alderney is the closest of the Channel Islands to both England and France, and is separated from the Cap de la Hague in France’s Normandy region by the Alderney Race, described as a dangerous passage because of the strong currents that run through it.

From this particular map, it certainly looks like there is more of Alderney Island below the water than above it.

I used this Google Earth screenshot to orient myself to Alderney’s location with respect to England and France in order to match up Alderney’s location with this map, and to show what appears to be a triangulated relationship between these three places with a high-concentration of star forts for their small sizes.

Alderney became one of the most heavily fortified sections of Hitler’s Atlantic Wall, which we are told was one of the largest building works of the 20th-century, fortifications built between 1942 and 1944, and envisioned to make an Allied invasion of the Western European mainland from the sea impossible.

I suspect that this was actually a cover story for pre-existing infrastructure, and ithe Nazis were extremely interested in the Channel Islands throughout the course of World War II.

The Atlantic Wall was said to have been an extensive system of coastal defenses built by Nazi Germany along the coast of continental Europe and Scandinavia.

Just like France, the Channel Islands were occupied by the German Armed Forces long-term during the war, in this case from June 30th of 1940 to May 9th of 1945, and were the only part of the British Isles occupied by Germany.

It is interesting to note that for all the time, effort and energy the Germans were said to have put into the Atlantic Wall to make an Allied invasion of the Western European mainland from the sea impossible, we are also told that when the Allied forces landed on the beaches of Normandy on June 6th of 1944, known to us in history as D-Day, most of the coastal defenses there were stormed within hours.

Something is not adding up here.

All of these massive building projects attributed to making an Allied invasion from the sea impossible amounted to absolutely nothing?

The next place I am going to look at in western France is the area around Arcachon Bay and Arcachon.

The general shape of Arcachon Bay is described as that of an equilateral triangle pointing north, and the southwest corner of which is open to the sea, between Cap Ferret and the town of Arcachon.

Arcachon Bay is also described as an estuary, where saltwater and freshwater mix, and in which we are told that tidal currents result in features like sand bars, sand flats and a channel system.

The Cap Ferret has a narrow-gauge tramway that links the shores of the Arcachon Bay with the beaches on the Atlantic Coast that runs from April to September.

The line first operated in 1879 and was pulled by a horse.

Locomotives took over in 1925 and it operated until 1935, and then service was started again in its current form in 1952.

What we are told were remnants of the Atlantic Wall are visible at the beach terminus of the tramway.

The Dune of Pilat is located at the southern entrance of Arcachon Bay.

Like the dunes in the Outer Banks at Jockey’s Ridge, the tallest active sand dune system in the eastern United States and just a short distance south of where the leyline exits the United States, the Dune of Pilat is the tallest dune in Europe, and located just a short distance south of where this leyline enters Europe across the Atlantic Ocean.

Prior to being called the Dune of Pilat in the 1930s, the area was called “Les Sabloneys,” or “the New Sands.”

We are told the Dune of Pilat has moved landward, and has pushed back forest to cover houses, roads, and more portions of the Atlantic Wall.

Next, I am going to turn my attention to the Bay of Biscay, a gulf in the Northeast Atlantic that lies along the coast of Western France and the northern coast of Spain. 

Just for point of information, Basque districts lie along the Bay, including Bilbao, the capital of the Basque Country in Spain, and Biscay was the name for Basque up until the early 19th century. 

Parts of the Continental Shelf extend far into the Bay of Biscay.

What are called “Continental Shelves” are found all along the Earth’s coastlines, and as I mentioned previously, I believe they are actually submerged landmasses and ruined land from this recent cataclysmic event which destroyed the Earth’s original energy grid, along with land features like estuaries. wetlands, deserts and dunes.

Here is a more detailed look at the bathymetry of the Bay of Biscay.

Bathymetry is the study of the underwater depth of the “floors” of oceans, lakes, and rivers.

So in this example, the shelf running along the European continent at this location is only 100-meters, or 328-feet, in depth, at its shallowest, which extends out quite a distance from the coast of France and well into the entrance of the English Channel.

Abnormally high waves and rough seas occur here, and the Bay of Biscay is known for having heavy storms, especially in the winter months.

The Bay of Biscay is notable for having a long history of shipwrecks, and is counted among the most dangerous waters on Earth..

Now I am going to head down to the coast of southern France, where the leyline leaves France and enters the Gulf of Lion in the Mediterranean Sea.

Like the Bay of Biscay off the coast of western France, the Continental Shelf extends far into the Gulf of Lion, with the depths close to the shoreline being quite shallow, where as we have already seen much of which is composed of ponds, lakes, lagoons, and salt marshes, and the offshore underwater canyons slope rapidly to great depths to the floor of the Mediterranean Sea.

Also like the Bay of Biscay and the Great Lakes, the Gulf of Lion is known for its extreme weather, with sudden violent cold and blustery winds known as the Mistral and the Tramontane that threaten boats and ships, as seen here off the coast near the port city of Marseille.

Marseille is located on the edge of the Gulf of Lion, where it meets the Mediterranean Sea, and is a major port city.

We’ve already seen that the continental shelf extends for a long distance into the Gulf of Lion before coming to the offshore underwater canyons that slope rapidly to great depths to the floor of the Mediterranean Sea.

The Cliffs of Marseille primarily refer to the steep limestone cliffs of Calanques National Park that plunge into the Mediterranean Sea, bearing in mind that most of the coastline of the Gulf of Lion is composed of ponds, lakes, lagoons, and salt marshes.

This same manifestation of cliffs next to the sea or ocean is found worldwide, looking like land violently broke off from the landmass.

Here are just a few of countless examples.

The sheer cliffs along the coastline of Hengam Island in the Persian Gulf’s Strait of Hormuz on the top left, compared for similarity of appearance with the sheer white cliffs of Dover on the coast of southern England on the top right, and the cliffs along the southern coast of Australia in Victoria State where the Great Ocean Road runs for a long distance next to a sheer cliff, and showing the location of the 12 Apostles, the name given to what are called “limestone stacks” in the water off Port Campbell.

There are a few other places that I would like to highlight in the location of where the Teotihuacan to Giza leyline exits continental Europe in Southern France: the Maguelone Cathedral; Villeneuve-les-Maguelone; and where the site of the Ancient fou de la Digue d’arret du Chenal Sud got my attention.

First up, the Maguelone Cathedral.

It was said to have been sold as national property during the French Revolution and designated as a historic monument in 1840…

I find it highly noteworthy that the massive Maguelone Cathedral, said to have been constructed in the 11th-century…

…is located on this tiny strip of land, called an isthmus, in the middle of what is called “Etang de L’Arnel,” or “Pond of the Arnel,” which is separated by the Mediterranean Sea’s Gulf of Lion by a narrow strip land consisting of several beaches.

The tiny strip of land upon which the Maguelone Cathedral sits in the middle of a narrow “pond” is opposite from the present-day town of Villeneuve-lès-Maguelone, which translates in English to the “new city” pertaining to Maguelone.

La Porte de Maguelone, or the Maguelone Gate, sits by itself on the end of the isthmus where the Maguelone Cathedral is located.

This is what I found when I was looking for more information on the lonely Maguelone Gate.

The Rhone-to-Sete Canal pointed out by the red arrows, separates the “Pond of the Moors” and “the Pond of the Arnel” above the canal, and the “Pierre Blanche Pond” and the “Pond of the Prevost” below it.

We are told that construction of the Rhone-to-Sete Canal started in the 17th-century and was finally completed in 1808.

This is a very watery location for such a huge undertaking as building a sophisticated engineering project like a canal, especially starting in the 17th-century.

It runs for 61-miles, or 98-kilometers through wetlands.

There is a rail service at the nearby Villeneuve-lès-Maguelone, which runs along the Mediterranean coastline and connects to other rail-lines in southern France.

The original city of Maguelone at this location was one of seven cities, along with Elne, Agde, Narbonne, Lodeve, Beziers and Nimes, in a region known historically as “Septimania.”

One of the names for the star cluster of the Pleiades is the “Seven Sisters.”

I found a depiction of the Pleiades and compared it with a map of these seven cities in southern France to see if a case could be made that they constitute a star map, and I think there can be.

As I have been sharing with the examples of lighthouses, there is a signficant amount of evidence that the original advanced civilization built everything on the Earth as a mirror of the Heavens, from ancient to modern times.

Next in this area around Maguelone on the coast of southern France, I would like to highlight the “Ancient fou de la Digue d’arret du Chenal Sud,” “Le Phare de L’Espiguette,” and Fort de Peccais.

I found out that the “Ancient fou de la Digue d’arret du Chenal Sud” was the location of a former lighthouse that was said to have been constructed in the 19th-century.

Right next to where the former lighthouse was located is a current lighthouse, the “Phare de L’Espiguette,” situated amidst the dunes of the “Pointe de Espiguette,” which is a vast dune system on the coast that is 11-miles, or 18-kilometers-long.

It was said to have been built in 1869.

Both of these lighthouse locations are close to Fort de Peccais.

The location of Fort de Peccais is hard to get to where it is on a bad road in the salt marshes, which we are told it was built to guard the salt flats in the 14th-century because it was a source of taxation for the king.

It is located in a bend of the watercourse going around it.

It also has canals on both sides of it and wetlands all around it.

There are a couple of more things I’d like to mention while I’m here that are noteworthy.

One is the nearby coastal region of the Camargue.

It is in the two arms of the Rhone River Delta, and is a wetland area of salt marshes and lagoons cut off from the sea by sandbars, like we have already seen in this post along coastal areas.

The Camargue region is known for its pink salt lakes, flamingos, and horses.

The city of Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer is the capital of the Carmargue.

The name of Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer refers to Mary Magdalene, Mary Salome, and Mary of Clopas.

These three women were closely linked to Jesus, and at the time of his crucifixion, the first witnesses to the empty tomb and the resurrection of Jesus.

Subsequently, they escaped persecution in Judaea by travelling across the sea in a boat, and living out the rest of their lives in the Camargue.

The Roma people of southern France, also known as gypsies, venerate Saint Sara-la-Kali, or “Sara the Black” in the Romani language, a black madonna whose statue is in the Church of Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer, and is famous throughout the world as the patron saint of gypsies.

While Christian theologians tend to identify her as an Egyptian handmaiden to Mary Magdalene, her actual identity remains a mystery.

But these are some of the intriguing connections that showed up on a long-distance pyramid alignment between Egypt and Mexico.

Next, I am going to pick up this pyramid leyline where it enters Egypt across a coastal strip just a short distance west of the Western Harbor of Alexandria.

This leyline enters Egypt right in-between the historic location of two lighthouses.

The Pharos of Abusir is located to the west of where the alignment enters Egypt, marked by the red dot, and the historic location of the Pharos of Alexandria was located to the east of it, in the city’s Eastern Harbor, which is adjacent to the Western Harbor.

The Pharos of Abusir is located at the ruins of an ancient temple on the shore of Lake Mariout, and what we are told about it is that it was an ancient replica of the famed Pharos of Alexandria.

Lake Mariout, also known as “Lake Mareotis,” on the western edge of the Nile Delta, is described as a “brackish” lake, meaning that it has more salinity than freshwater, but not as much as seawater.

We are told that at the beginning of the 20th-century, the lake covered 77-square-miles, or 200-kilometers-squared, and had a navigable canal, and that at the beginning of the 21st-century, the lake covered 19-square-miles, or 50-kilometers-squared.

The famed Pharos of Alexandria on the other side of the leyline was one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World.

Widely considered to have been the world’s first lighthouse in our historical narrative, it was said to have been built in 270 BC during the reign of Ptolemy II.

At 330-feet, or 100-meters, in overall height, it was one of the tallest manmade structures in the world.

What we are told is that the Pharos of Alexandria was destroyed by an earthquake in 1323 AD, and that in 1994, a team of French archeologists diving in the waters of Alexandria’s Eastern Harbor discovered the remains of the lighthouse on the sea-floor.

It was located right next to the Citadel of Qaitbay in Alexandria’s Eastern Harbor.

We are told the adjacent Citadel of Qaitbay was built on top of a rocky outcrop surrounded by water by the Sultan Al-Ashraf Sayf al-Din Qa’it Bay, and that remaining stones of the Pharos of Alexandria were used in the building of the citadel from 1477 to 1479.

The Egyptian National Railways has been in operation since 1854, and has rail infrastructure along the Mediterranean Coast and along the Nile River, among other places.

Alexandria still has an operational streetcar service.

It began operation in 1863 under horse-drawn power, and was electrified by 1902.

I think pyramids played an important role in this worldwide grid system that provided free energy for the benefit of all life everywhere through the pre-existing infrastructure.

Carl Munck deciphered a shared mathematical code in his book “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 turned his findings in “The Code” into a video series which can be found on YouTube.

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

Now I am going to head over to another place on the Earth to look at what is found in the deserts of the Rub’ Al Khali, otherwise known as the Empty Quarter, in Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, also known as the UAE.

I looked through this area when I was tracking a long-distance circular leyline of cities and places in alignment beginning and ending on Amsterdam Island, a tiny island in the South Indian Ocean.

The Rub’ Al Khali is the largest desert in the world. 

It encompasses most of the southern third of the Arabian peninsula, and is primarily in Saudi Arabia.

I found reference to a Saudi Arabian Minister of Petroleum and Mineral Resources, Ali Al-Naimi, reporting that the dunes don’t drift – that while sand blows off the surfaces, their essential shape remains intact.

I would not be surprised at all to learn that there is enduring infrastructure underneath all that sand, here and everywhere else these dune systems exist!

The Rub’ Al Khali Desert has been determined to have had what would have been the third-largest lake in the world and one of the longest rivers in the world, whose flow would have rivalled the Nile River in Egypt or the Amazon River in South America.

The Shaybah Oil Field in Saudi Arabia was discovered in 1968, 25-miles, or 40-kilometers, from the northern edge of the Empty Quarter, and produces significant amounts of both oil and natural gas.

The Shaybah Oil Field is considered to be one of the most prominent landmarks in the Rub’ Al Khali, and is surrounded by a series of giant, semicircular sand dunes, some of which are 984-feet, or 300-meters, high.

The incense trade made its way through this region, and it has been suggested that the lost city of “Iram of the Pillars” depended on such trade.

The location of “Iram of the Pillars” has been searched for over the years and no place has ever been conclusively identified as such.

It intriguingly has the nickname of “Atlantis of the Sands.”

Also, in the process of oil and gas exploration in the Empty Quarter, giant skeletons apparently have turned up from time to time, though you find things like this fact-checked and flagged as hoaxes.

Like for some reason they really don’t want us to know about the existence of giants on the Earth.

The Moreeb Dune is in the Rub’ Al Khali.

The Moreeb Dune is the tallest dune in the UAE and one of the highest sand hills in the world at 984-feet, or 300-meters, high, with a 50-degree angle from the ground to the top.

Among other things, it is popular place for organized car-racing, and other vehicular activities.

Must have a pretty hard surface underneath all of the sand!

They do the same thing on the dunes at the Little Sahara State Park, near Waynoka, Oklahoma.

There are over 1,600-acres, or 648-hectares, of sand dunes here that range in height from 25 – to 75-feet, or 8- to 23-meters.

Oklahoma’s Little Sahara State Park is southeast of Freedom, Oklahoma, and both of these locations are on the Cimarron River.

This is an old photo of what once was Chimney Rock in Freedom, Oklahoma.

It’s fate reminded me of the Grand Portal on the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore that was speculated to have collapsed from erosion, but nobody really knew what caused it.

Same idea with Chimney Rock.

What they want us to believe, as captioned below the photo, was that this 50-f00t, or 15-meter, -high, sturdy rock was worn away so much over thousands of years, that one day in 1973, big winds caused it to fall without anyone seeing it happen.

Freedom is also the location of Alabaster Caverns State Park.

Alabaster Caverns features the world’s largest gypsum cave open to the public, and contains rare alabaster formations.

I do believe we are looking at destroyed infrastructure at these locations, no longer recognizable as such from what these places once were, and it is my opinion these were the results of the deliberate destruction of the original energy grid.

Alabaster was used by ancient builders for things like interior decoration and natural lighting.

It is a soft stone that transmits light, and was cut, carved, and polished to achieve translucent, glowing effects.

Today, the City of Freedom in Woods County is the smallest certified city in Oklahoma, with a population of 174 people in the 2020 Census.

In our historical narrative, it got its start in the late 1800s following the Cherokee Strip Land Run, when farmers and ranchers began a small settlement in the area.

The Cherokee Strip land run began at noon on September 16th of 1893, with approximately 100,000 people running to stake claim on the free 6-million acres of land and 40,000 homesteads that had been opened up for settlement.

The Oklahoma counties of Woods, Kay, Grant, Woodward, Garfield, Noble, and Pawnee were established following the Cherokee Strip Land Run.

This is the historic Woods County Courthouse in Alva, Oklahoma.

It was said to have been constructed in 1904 and was condemned and demolished between 1954 and 1956 to make room for the current Woods County courthouse.

Four primary railroads traversed Woods County, Oklahoma, most of which were eventually consolidated into the Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF) rail network: The Southern Kansas Railway; the Choctaw Northern Railroad; the Arkansas Valley and Western; and the Buffalo and Northwestern Railroad.

The livestock and livestock products produced by Woods County farmers had a market value of $2.5-million in 1945.

By 2000, only BNSF provided rail service.

There’s one other noteworthy place in Woods County that I would like to mention.

The Cargill Solar Salt Processing Plant west of Freedom on the Cimarron River flats, known as the Big Salt Plain.

The process does not involve mining salt from underground shafts, but one in which salty brine is pumped from underground deposits directly into shallow evaporative ponds.

Approximately 100,000- to 200,000-pounds, or 45,360- to 90,719-kilograms, of salt are harvested here annually for agricultural use (like cattle licks), water softeners and petroleum drilling.

Oklahoma was where I first awakened to all of the things I am sharing with you now, about a worldwide, advanced civilization that has been erased from our memory, and from the start of my waking up to it, I was aware of a connection to energy.

After I became aware of the existence of the North American Star Tetrahedron, and as I started to become aware of the symmetrical, geometrically-shaped features of the landscape when I was living in Central Oklahoma, I started to see how the layout of the grid and ancient infrastructure were being utilized by the energy industry unbeknownst to the general population.

I started to see how the layout of the grid and ancient infrastructure were being utilized by the energy industry unbeknownst to the general population. 

For example, we are told that these are wind turbines. 

Pictured in this photo, west of Oklahoma City in Okarche, there is a massive wind-farm spread across the landscape. 

However, these turbines not just placed anywhere – they are placed in a relatively linear fashion within a defined space, so their placement appears to be intentional, and not random. 

Also, all of the wind turbines that are running go at the same speed, regardless of whether the wind is blowing. 

I really question whether they are actually being powered by wind, and think they are being powered by some other technology. 

Wind turbine farms have popped up in different places in Western Oklahoma, and the Texas Panhandle. 

From what I could see in Oklahoma, wind turbines are typically associated with cities with an energy industry connection, like Woodward, OK, and Enid, OK, where I would see a line of them.  

I came to realize that the wind turbine line-up in Okarche approximates with the lines in the North American Star Tetrahedron, and Oklahoma is located where two major lines cross.

The Anadarko Basin underlies western Oklahoma, the Texas Panhandle, southwestern Kansas and southeastern Colorado.

Like the previously-seen Shaybah Oil Field in Saudi Arabia, the Anadarko Basin produces large amounts of natural gas and oil.

Another place of interest is Cushing, Oklahoma, which is located between Stillwater, OK, and Tulsa, OK, and called the “Pipeline Crossroads of the World.”

It is one of the largest physical crude oil storage facilities in the world, and functions as the central intersection for domestic and international oil pipelines.

I came to realize while living in Oklahoma that tank farms are typically situated on top of what appears to be earthworks. 

Here are two examples, but very typical of the types of things I started to notice as I was becoming more aware.

When I lived in Oklahoma, I had the occasion to drive along Highway 412 from Woodward to Enid, all of which are just south of Alabaster Caverns in Freedom and the Little Sahara State Park in Waynoka.

All along the way, I saw features in the landscape that looked like these, at Gloss Mountains State Park near Enid:

At many places in this drive, I saw what looked like fracking wells in the distance next to these features, similar to the one pictured here.

I believe terms like “fossil fuel” and “natural gas” are misnomers, and that our modern energy industry is actually based on ancient energy technologies.

I have also seen countless examples of utility poles in sand dunes and on earthworks.

There are many more examples of dune systems on the surface of the Earth, but what I have covered in this post illustrates why I believe that the Earth’s original energy grid system was based on geometrically precise and exact leyline alignments that mirrored the Heavens, and that a deliberately-caused cataclysm destroyed it around key infrastructure of the energy grid, including railways, canals, star forts, and lighthouses.

I believe the malevolent, parasitic 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 as the New World Order, which I think started in earnest in the mid-to-late 1700s and early 1800s.

I think that when the energy grid was destroyed, the land was destroyed, and created all the land features we see in the world today that have been covered-up by calling everything the result of natural and geological forces, and suppressing any history or explanations that would contradict the official narrative.

There are some good examples in Texas that come to mind about how the original ancient infrastructure has been covered up by calling it natural.

There is a rock formation in the Palo Duro Canyon in West Texas known as the Lighthouse on the left, and it has a twin in Big Bend National Park in South Texas, pictured on the right.

When I first saw these two many years ago, early on in my research journey some time around 2018, the Pharos of Alexandria immediately came to mind.

These two ancient stone structures look like melted lighthouses on the left, and here is how they compare in appearance to what the Pharos of Alexandria was believed to have looked like on the right.

I am going to end this post here.

In conclusion, it is my opinion that the original energy grid system of a worldwide advanced civilization was deliberately-destroyed, which caused the cataclysmic destruction of the entire surface of the Earth, and that the original energy-grid-system was repurposed by the Earth’s Controllers in the last couple of hundred years into an energy-harvesting system known as the Matrix.

I also believe that the energy sources that power our world are the components of the original energy grid, from oil and gas, to elements that are mined, like coal and iron ore, that was very much a part of what the self-styled elite families became enormously wealthy and powerful from, and who also formed our perceptions of the world we live in today.

We don’t recognize the clues and evidence as such because we have no points of reference for them because Earth’s True History is not included the historical narrative we have been given, and instead have been given a fictional explanation for our history and how everything came to be in our world.

That is until they lost control of the narrative with the Internet and Humanity started waking up from its long, manipulated slumber.

No matter how hard they try to get it back, they are more exposed than they have ever been at any time in our modern history.

In this post, I will be taking a close look at the area around Harpers Ferry, West Virginia, from the perspective of its considerable infrastructure and history.

I will demonstrate as I go through here that a case can be made that all of this infrastructure has connections to an original energy grid that we have not been told about, and in fact, there are still energy-related facilities through here to this day.

Harpers Ferry is also a unique location to study in that along with its hydroelectric energy infrastructure, it figured prominently in the Civil War-era, with historical events and battles taking place in -and-around Harpers Ferry.

I have long-believed that while something happened during the Civil War years, it was not about what we have been taught from cradle-to-grave, and suspect it had more to do with covering up the Old World Civilization, its original infrastructure, and its people, and I will show you why I believe this to be the case in this study.

Here is a Google Earth Screenshot along the Potomac River between Great Falls Park in Potomac, Maryland, showing all the infrastructure that is found along here in-between there and the Potomac River Reservoir north going through Harper’s Ferry, including the C & O Canal, the B & O Railroad, bridges, aqueducts, reservoirs, forts and batteries.

Harper’s Ferry was an infamous location during the American Civil War, and so was the Battle of Antietam in Sharpsburg, Maryland, one of its bloodiest battles.

I grew up near here in Montgomery County, Maryland, and I have been to a number of these places multiple times, particularly Harper’s Ferry and Antietam.

First, a few things about the Baltimore & Ohio (B & O) Railroad and Chesapeake & Ohio (C & O) Canal.

In 1827, the State of Maryland chartered the Baltimore and Ohio (B & O) Railroad, the first common carrier, and the oldest, railroad in the United States.

The Baltimore & Ohio Railroad Company was formed in 1827, of which U. S. Founding Father & Declaration of Independence Signer Charles Carroll of Carrollton was one of its Directors, and he was the one that had the honor of laying the first stone for the railroad at the ceremony after the celebratory festivities at the July 4th ground-breaking in 1828, near his Mount Clare Mansion.

We are told there was an intense rivalry between the B & O Railroad, and the Chesapeake & Ohio (C & O) Canal, with each project choosing the same day of July 4th of 1828 to break-ground.

The Mount Clare Shop was the oldest railroad manufacturing complex in the United States, located on a portion of the Carroll family’s Mount Clare Mansion, and the mansion left the family’s ownership in 1840.

Mount Clare Station was first said to have been constructed starting in the 1830s.

We are told the original Mount Clare passenger station, the first in the nation, was abandoned, and was located where the parking lot is for the museum is today.

The B & O Railroad Museum is housed in the intact roundhouse, one of the very few such railroad buildings to remain in existence.

The existence and true purpose of these railroad roundhouses have been removed from history, with very few exceptions.

The first section of the B & O Railroad was said to have opened in 1830, said to have reached the Ohio River in 1852, the first eastern seaboard railroad to do so.

We are told both projects were vying for the narrow right-of-way where the Potomac River cuts through a mountain ridge not far from Point of Rocks, Maryland, which ended up in court.

Even though after four-years the case was said to have been ruled in favor of the canal, we are told the C & O Canal had to allow the B & O Railroad to go through there, so this is a place where the canal and the railroad run side-by-side, and that within a few years the canal was made obsolete because the railroad was so much more efficient.

And this incredible engineering feat of canals and railroads running side-by-side is found in countless other places, with examples like the Lehigh Canal in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania…

…and this one of the Ship Canal on Michigan’s Keweenaw Peninsula.

For the purposes of this study, I am going to be taking a close look at a series of Google Earth screenshots of sections of the Potomac River between Great Falls Park in Maryland and the Potomac River Reservoir just to the west of Sharpsburg, Maryland, where the Battle of Antietam took place.

This first section in Montgomery County was in my stomping grounds growing up.

The first two pins down at the bottom of the screen show the relationship and distance at the locations between the Potomac River, Great Falls and the C & O canal, and where the B & O Railroad today makes its way through Montgomery county.

Now I want to bring your attention to what is at the top left of the screenshot at the pins of “Monocacy Aqueduct” and “Railroad tracks.”

The Monocacy Aqueduct was said to have been built by three different contractors between 1829 and 1833.

It is the largest aqueduct of the eleven aqueducts on the C & O Canal, crossing over the Monocacy River before it meets the Potomac River.

It is described by many historians as one of the finest canal features in the United States.

This solid, stone-masonry structure has a waterway of 19-feet, or 5.8-meters at the bottom, and 20-feet, or 6.1-meters at the top.

It was used as part of the canal system for canal boat transportation, and said to have been utilized by the Union Army during the Civil War to transport war materials and troops between Maryland, Virginia, and places west.

The story goes that the Confederate Army had plans to blow up the aqueduct but were unsuccessful in doing so for a variety of reasons, from being talked out of it by the keeper of Lock 27, to not being able to drill enough holes to insert the amount of dynamite necessary to blow it up.

Another is that the Battle of Monocacy took place not far from here in Frederick County in July of 1864, and came about because Union troops were there to protect a railroad bridge at Monocacy Junction, Maryland, where it crossed the Monocacy River, as Confederate troops marched towards Washington.

On the top left is a photo of the Monocacy Railroad Junction circa 1872, and on the bottom right is a photo of the confluence of the Des Moines and Raccoon Rivers in Des Moines, Iowa, one of countless examples of so-called river confluences that look exactly like the Monocacy Junction, and were actually canals.

A junction is defined as a “an act of joining or adjoining things,” implying intentionality as opposed to something that just happens randomly.

An electrical junction is defined as a point or area where multiple conductors or semi-conductors make physical contact.

The next point of information here that is noteworthy is that there is another railroad junction near the Monocacy Aqueduct itself, where another rail-line branches off from the main B & O rail-line that runs closer to the Potomac River and C & O Canal here.

Also here the C & O Canal is hard to distinguish from the Potomac River through here.

The short Dickerson spur-line ends at the facilities for the Dickerson Plant and Covanta Montgomery.

The Dickerson Plant refers to the Dickerson Generating Station, an 853-megawatt electric-generating plant owned by NRG Energy.

It has a history of toxic metal releases into the Potomac River, like arsenic and mercury.

It is located next to the C & O National Historical Park, with C& O Canal Lock 27 being nearby.

Canal Locks are used to raise and lower boats between stretches of water of different levels.

The C & O Canal has 74 locks altogether along its 184.5-mile, or 297-kilometer, length.

The other plant here in Dickerson is Covanta Montgomery, the Montgomery County Resource Recovery Facility, which is a 56-megawatt incineration plant that burns municipal garbage and waste and turns it into energy.

It is served by the CSX railroad line, which brings trash from Montgomery County Central Transfer and Recycling facility in Derwood, Maryland.

In the next section, from the Monocacy Aqueduct to the train station at Point of Rocks, Maryland, the railroad tracks start to run closer to the C & O Canal and the Potomac River, and then run side-by-side.

Starting at Noland’s Ferry, the railroad, C & O Canal, and the Potomac River start to run together right next to each other for a long-distance.

Noland’s Ferry started running in the middle of the 1700s, carrying travellers between Loudon County, Virginia, and Frederick County, Maryland.

It was said to have been used for crossing the Potomac River in both the Revolutionary War and Civil War.

This is a stone structure at the entrance to Noland’s Ferry Park on the left, and Culvert 71  on the right is located in the park at mile marker 44.04 just before you get to the historical location of Noland’s Ferry at mile marker 44.6

Both structures appear to be very old.

Next we come to Point-of-Rocks, Maryland.

So, let’s take a closer look at Point of Rocks.

We are told Point of Rocks was the western terminus of the B & O Railroad from 1828 to 1832, while the B & O and C & O awaited the court decision on the hotly-contested right-of-way through here mentioned previously.

The train station here was said to have been built in Gothic Revival-style in 1873 by the B & O Railroad at the junction of the B & O Main-line running to Baltimore and the Metropolitan Branch running to Washington, DC, which had opened for passenger service in 1873.

The parking area for the C & O Canal National Historic Park is just south of the U. S. Highway 15 Truss Bridge at Point of Rocks next to the Potomac River.

The two-lane, eight-span Camelback Truss Bridge at this location connects Maryland and Virginia, and was said to have been built in 1937, which would have been during the Great Depression.

U. S. Highway 15 is a United States Numbered Highway that serves New York, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina and South Carolina, and is one of the original numbered highways that was approved in 1926.

It is 792-miles, or 1,274-kilometers, in length.

US-15 is known as the “Journey Through Hallowed Ground National Scenic Byway,” as it closely follows the historic corridor used for pivotal Civil War movements and troop engagements, including, but not limited to, the Battle of Gettysburg in 1863.

There are two locks on the C & O Canal near Point of Rocks.

Lock 28 is pictured here on the left, and Lock 29 and the Lander Lockhouse on the right.

On the railroad’s way from here to Harper’s Ferry, West Virginia, its tracks run through a tunnel at Maryland Heights.

Where the tunnel comes out on the other side, among other things, there is an advertisement for passengers for “Mennen’s Borated Talcum Toilet Powder” high up on the face of Maryland Heights said to date from the early 1900s.

The Maryland Heights Trail connects to the Appalachian Trail, and I remember being at this location of the tunnel as part of a group hike on the Appalachian Trail through this area when I was a teenager.

C & O Canal Lock 33 is part of the Maryland Heights Trail.

Before crossing over the Railroad bridge here over the Potomac River where the Potomac and Shenandoah Rivers meet, there’s a few places I want to take a look at on this side of the Potomac River here first on Maryland Heights – a 30-pounder battery; a 100-pounder battery; and the Naval Battery Overlook.

On the Stone Fort Loop Trail of the Maryland Heights Trail, the 30-pounder battery was said to have been the first earthen battery built by the federals in the fall of 1862, at the end of a towering plateau that perfectly commanded the summits of Bolivar and Loudoun Heights facing south.

Higher up on Maryland Heights, we come to the 100-pounder battery on the Stone Fort Loop section of the trail.

We are told this battery was recommended by a Union general in the spring of 1863 that could fire a 100-point Parrott rifle 360-degrees in all directions from its lofty location.

The Stone Fort was said to have been built by the Union Army on top of Maryland Heights during the winter of 1862 and 1863 to ward off Confederate attack along the crest.

The Naval Battery was said to have been the first Union Fortification on Maryland Heights, and quickly built in May of 1862 to protect Harper’s Ferry from Confederate attack during General Stonewall Jackson’s Shenandoah Valley Campaign in the spring of 1862, and where there was a battle with Jackson’s troops in September of 1862.

The Union forces were said to have been forced to retreat and abandon the Naval Battery until they came back to Maryland Heights to build the better fortications we just saw higher up.

Before I move on into Harper’s Ferry proper, I would like to assert my belief that what has come down to us in our historical narrative as military fortifications, were in fact actually batteries on the original energy grid.

This brings us to meanings of the word “battery.”

One is “a device that produces electricity; may have several primary or secondary cells arranged in parallel or series.”

And another is “the heavy fire of artillery to saturate an area rather than hit a specific target.”

I find these historic forts worldwide, which are often actually called “batteries” and nowadays “star forts,” arranged in pairs or clusters, like these here at this location at Maryland Heights overlooking Harpers Ferry, and that that Civil War narrative, as one of many examples in our narrative, gave the cover story needed to explain how they came into existence and why they needed to be destroyed as military targets.

I believe that what came down to us as fortifications and artillery batteries in our narrative originally functioned as batteries for the Earth’s original grid system, in the same way that the batteries we use in our daily lives produce electricity for our various devices.

Now getting back to Harpers Ferry, there’s a set of railroad bridges crossing the Potomac River at the confluence of the Potomac and Shenandoah for two different lines.

One continues along the Potomac River and the other is a line that runs next to the Shenandoah River.

What is known as “John Brown’s Fort” sits at the confluence of the two rivers.

It was said to have been built in 1848 as a guard and fire engine house for the Federal Armory at Harper’s Ferry.

Master Mason John Brown was best known for the Harper’s Ferry raid on October 16th of 1859.

His plan was to raid the Federal Armory and instigate a major slave rebellion in the South, and he had no rations or escape route.

In 36-hours, troops under the command of then Lt. Col. Robert E. Lee had arrested him and his cohorts, who had withdrawn to the engine house after they had been surrounded by local citizens and militia.

While his plan was doomed from the start, we are told John Brown’s Raid served to deepen the divide between the North and South in the years leading up to the Civil War.

John Brown was hung on December 2nd of 1859, less than two months after the onset of the Harper’s Ferry Raid.

Did John Brown take one for the team?

Or did he not see that one coming?

John Brown’s Wax Museum in Harpers Ferry first opened in 1963, and permanently closed in 2024 after the owner sold the building.

The museum depicted the life of John Brown and the Harpers Ferry Raid, and it is my opinion that this museum, and all museums for that matter, are in place to reinforce the official historical narrative in the mind of the public.

Interestingly, we are told that many of the bricks of “John Brown’s Fort” were taken and sold as souvenirs…

…and that “John Brown’s Fort” was said to have been moved four times.

To Chicago, for an attraction at the 1893 World’s Columbian Exposition; back to Harpers Ferry on the Murphy Farm in 1895; Storers College in Harpers Ferry in 1909; and back to its present, and close to its original location, by the National Park Service in 1968.

What I find interesting about finding “John Brown’s Fort” at this location is that I typically find either still-existing or historic star forts at the point of river confluences like here in Harper’s Ferry.

Examples include Fort Pitt and Fort Duquesne at the “Forks of the Ohio” in Pittsburgh…

…and the historic first Camp, and later Fort, Defiance at the confluence of the Mississippi and Ohio Rivers in Cairo, Illinois, to name two of countless examples.

Before I continue following the C & O Canal and B & O Railroad along the Potomac River, I just want to take a quick look at some places on the Shenandoah River-side.

Going from left-to-right along the Shenandoah River in this Google Earth Screenshot, starting with Virginius Island; the Staircase Rapids; Shenandoah Falls, and the original site of the Shenandoah River Bridge.

First, Virginius Island.

We are told Virginius Island was a thriving industrial location in the first-half of the 19th-century, after Virginius Island was created by the Patowmack Company when it was constructing the Shenandoah Canal between 1806 and 1807.

Besides the railroad that ran across Virginius Island, other industries that were said to have been here included a wide-range of mills and factories. and that at its peak in 1850, there were 180 people living here in 20 houses.

Here are some of the stone ruins found today on Virginius Island.

Compare the photo on the left taken at Virginius Island in Harpers Ferry identified as “pulp factory ruins;” and on the right, ancient waterwheels found in Faiyum, Egypt.

Next, the “Staircase Rapids.”

What are called the “Staircase Rapids” run along the Shenandoah River a distance through this stretch of the river, consisting of the “Upper Staircase” and the “Lower Staircase,” towards a section of the river classified as “Shenandoah Falls.”

I’m sure I went over these rapids on a group whitewater rafting trip when I was a teenager and part of a very active youth group at my church where we went on all of these fun outings together.

Reflecting back on it, these were experiences I would not have otherwise had, and I am grateful that I was able to have them.

At any rate, I now believe that rapids, and waterfalls, played a functional role on the original energy grid as well as part of an advanced hydroelectric system, and the locations I am looking at in this post are a microcosm of the same infrastructure and design that is found all over the Earth that has been hidden from us.

What comes to mind about rapids and energy grid infrastructure is the Leander Colt Incline Railway .

It was said to have been built on the Canadian-side of the Niagara Falls in 1869, near the Whirlpool Rapids Bridge, but damaged and abandoned 20-years later in 1889.

Another Whirlpool Rapids Incline was said to have been built in 1876 near the Leander Colt Incline, but damaged by fire in 1934 and replaced by the “Great Gorge Trip” of the Niagara Belt-Line, a train route around Niagara Falls…

…which later became the “White Water Walk” where you can take a leisurely stroll where the Niagara Belt-Line once was.

Next, there are ruins the ruins of two historic bridges at the confluence of the two rivers – original Shenandoah River Bridge abutments and abutments for the former Bollman Bridge, another railroad bridge that was next to the two existing railroad bridges crossing the Potomac River.

The original Shenandoah River Bridge was said to have first been a wagon-road bridge and later a vehicle bridge that was completely destroyed by a flood in 1936, the worst of six known floods starting in 1748.

The 1936 flood crested at 36.5-feet, or 11-meters.

Along with the Shenandoah River Bridge and many businesses in the Lower Town of Harpers Ferry…

…the Bollman Railroad Bridge was completely wiped away in the same flood.

Both ruined bridges were also said to have suffered damage during the Civil War, but rebuilt for use until they were completely wiped out by the floodwaters in 1936.

Now heading up the Potomac River from the confluence of the two, the Potomac has rapids through here, as well as a Hydroelectric Power Plant.

It was said to have been built in 1888, and operated from 1899 to 1991, and was originally part of a wood pulp mill, and after a fire in 1925, operated only as a power house.

Following the Potomac River from the old power plant ruins, we soon come to Lock 34; Dam 3 ruins; and Fort Duncan.

The railroad tracks follow the Potomac River up until the river bend at the Dam 3 Ruins, and then veer off across the countryside.

The C & O Canal Lock 34 is at mile 61.5 of the canal’s towpath, just north of Harpers Ferry.

The next place we come to on the Potomac River after Lock 34 are the ruins of Dam 3, an inlet lock, Lock 35, and Lock 36 around mile 62 of the canal towpath.

Dam 3 was said to have been built in 1799 to serve the Armory at Harpers Ferry.

The dam was said to be ineffective; rebuilt once in 1820; and then in 1832, used by the C & O Canal for its purposes.

The Inlet Lock, Lock 35 and Lock 36 are in close proximity to the ruins of Dam 3.

The historical location of Fort Duncan is less than a half-mile north from the location of the Dam 3 ruins and the lock infrastructure, up a steep hill.

It was said to have been constructed by the Union Army in October of 1862 shortly after the Battle of Antietam and the Union surrender of Harper’s Ferry to the Confederate Army under the command of General Stonewall Jackson.

Its stated purpose was to guard the area around Harpers Ferry, the railroad and the canal.

The only action seen there was reported to have been a small demonstration following the Confederate General Jubal Early’s raid on Washington in 1864.

Leaving the historic location of Fort Duncan, we are heading north to the battlefield of Antietam in Sharpsburg, Maryland, and Antietam Creek.

I remember visiting Antietam with my family when I was young, and then went there in 2004 when visiting a friend who lives in the area, and got an up-close and personal with the Burnside Bridge because I photographed it and later painted it.

More on the Burnside Bridge in a moment.

We are told that Antietam was the deadliest one-day battle in American Military History, on September 17th of 1862, with 22,727 dead, wounded, or missing.

The battle was fought between the Confederate troops of General Robert E. Lee’s Army of Northern Virginia and the Union troops of General George McClellan’s Army of the Potomac.

We are told Lee’s Army advanced into Maryland on September 3rd, after their victory on August 30th at the Second Battle of Bull Run in Northern Virginia.

McClellan’s troops were there to intercept them and by September 17th had the Confederate troops in defensive positions behind Antietam Creek.

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.

The Battle of Burnside Bridge took place in the afternoon that day to capture the bridge, which was dominated by a wooded bluff on the west bank and strewn with “boulders from an old quarry,” impeding the crossing of the bridge by combatants because this provided good cover.

The attempts of the Union Army troops under the command of Major-General Ambrose Burnside failed to secure the bridge and resulted in a considerable loss of life.

Compare the appearance of the Burnside Bridge on the left with that of the Sligachan Bridge on the Isle of Skye off Scotland’s northwest coast on the right.

The last section of the Potomac River and C & O Canal I am going to look at is a cluster of Hydroelectric and reservoir infrastructure to the northwest of Sharpsburg and the Antietam battlefield.

There is a series of S-shaped river bends through here that I see all over the Earth and long-believed also have a functional purpose on the Earth’s grid system…

…and you see the same S-Shaped river bends on the Mississippi River where the Battle of Vicksburg in Mississippi was said to have been fought in the Civil War that you have on the Potomac River where the Battle of Antietam was fought.

Viktor Schauberger’s work involved the hydrodynamics of S-shapes.

He was an Austrian scientist who was a pioneer in the field of water and energy research in the early 20th-century, and he specialized in the flow of water and natural energies.

Between 1928 and 1935, he worked on developing a device for the production of living water, water with an enhanced structure and necessary minerals.

Schauberger described the twisting and turning motions of water courses as energizing the water.

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

The infrastructure found along the Potomac River and C & O Canal here includes the Power Plant & Dam 4 and the Potomac River Reservoir.

The Power Plant and Dam 4 is an historic hydroelectric power generation station on the Potomac River, and part of the Potomac River Reservoir.

The Power Plant is a limestone building on a high stone foundation built into the hillside. that is five-bays long and a gable-roof said to have been built in 1909.

Dam 4 was said to have originally been built starting in 1832 and completed in 1835 for the C & O Canal, and that it started supplying hydroelectric power in 1913.

Today it is owned by the National Park Service and leased to the Potomac Edison Electric Company for electric power generation in Washington County, Maryland.

The Great Tunnel of the C & O Canal is in Allegheny County, Maryland, and part of the Paw Paw Bends section of the Potomac River as it winds its way through West Virginia and Maryland, not far from the Antietam National Battlefield in Maryland.

Built using more than 6,000,000-bricks, this tunnel has been described as the “greatest engineering marvel along the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal National Historical Park.”

The Paw Paw Tunnel was said to have been built between 1836 and 1850 for the C & O Canal to by-pass the bends in the Potomac River, with no work having been done on it between 1841 and 1847 due to construction and financial problems.

The C & O Canal closed to canal boats in 1924.

We are told that the C & O Canal, and other canals, were made obsolete because the railroad was so much more efficient and canals couldn’t compete with them.

Like the Wabash and Erie Canal in Indiana, among countless others, which was said to have been built during roughly the same time period as the C & O Canal.

Canals like the C & O Canal subsequently became a popular hiking, biking and canoeing venue, as we also see with the rails that quietly became trails when no one was paying attention.

This changed the energy flow from what the original integrated energy system was generating to power the electrical grid…to human energy.

We may not be all of it, but we are definitely a part of it.

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.

For another example of finding correlations between giants and civil war battles is this article on the bones of giant indians near Antietam Creek.

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

This article implies that the tall skeletons that were found of seven-feet in height, of indians that had 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 Dr. Philip Uhler, 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.

So exactly how was Dr. Philip Uhler supposed to find any evidence around 1898 of an historical battle between giant Indians in a place with an even more recent battle in 1863, 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 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 it’s made for much bigger people than we are today!

George Peabody’s bank became the premier American banking house in London after he took up residence from Baltimore to London permanently in 1837, and went from being a wholesale dry-goods and cotton merchant, to a merchant-banker offering securities in American railroad and canal enterprises to British and European investors.

He started a banking business trading on his own account a year after he moved to London, and by 1851, he established the banking firm of “George Peabody & Company” to meet the increasing demand for securities issued by American railroads, and his company specialized in financing governments and large companies.

According to “The Secret Founding of America” book by Nicholas Hagger…

…George Peabody was the Freemasonic banker from whom money was transferred to the “southern insurrectionists,” and he hired the father of J. P. Morgan to handle the funds when they arrived in the United States.

So as I have been showing throughout this post, the events in our historical narrative about the Civil War in the Greater-area around Harper’s Ferry, take place in a location noteworthy for its historic forts, rivers, canals, railroads, and hydroelectric plants.

The original rail-lines and canals would have been providing power for the free-energy system, and the original infrastructure would have provided the antiquitech to process and utilize the free energy throughout the worldwide system.

The Original Energy Grid system was based on exact and precise geometric alignments of cities and places all over the Earth.

Other examples places with the same infrastructure found at Harper’s Ferry is”The Soo,” the nickname given to the Sault Stes. Marie of Michigan and Ontario, and the Niagara Falls region between New York State and Ontario.

First, “The Soo.”

The city of Sault Ste. Marie was said to have been founded by the French Jesuit missionary, Father Jacques Marquette, in 1668. It was said to be named for both the “Sault,” the name given to the St. Mary’s River rapids, and the Virgin Mary, and called the first European city in the Great Lakes Region.

Sault Ste. Marie was one city until the border between the United States and Canada was established at the St. Mary’s River in a treaty after the War of 1812, creating Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan, and Sault Ste. Marie Ontario, and on both sides of the river, the area is referred to as the “The Sault” or even “The Soo.”

Sault Ste. Marie is the oldest city in Michigan, and said to be the third-oldest city in the United States.

The Soo Locks, the largest waterway traffic system on Earth, are called the “Linchpin of the Great Lakes,” allowing ships to travel between Lake Superior and the lower Great Lakes. Lake Superior meets Lake Huron with a 21-foot, or 6.4-meter, drop in elevation.

Next, Niagara Falls.

In our historical narrative, we are told Europeans started entering the Niagara River-area between Lake Ontario and Lake Erie in the 17th-century, with Frenchman Robert de la Salle given the credit for building Fort Conti at the mouth of the Niagara River in 1679, as a base for exploring for the Northwest Passage to Japan and China to extend France’s trade.

The location we are given for Fort Conti is Old Fort Niagara where the Niagara River meets Lake Ontario.

Robert de la Salle was accompanied by Belgian priest, missionary, and explorer of the North American interior, Franciscan Father Louis Hennepin, said to have been the first European to see the Niagara Falls.

Father Hennepin was a contemporary of the French Jesuit Father Jacques Marquette, who besides founding Sault Ste. Marie, explored all over Lake Superior, Lake Michigan and Green Bay in our historical narrative.

Niagara Falls has been called a “Hydroelectric Mecca.”

Niagara Falls, the largest waterfall by volume in North America, consists of a group of three waterfalls on the Niagara River spanning the international border between New York and Ontario – Horseshoe Falls in Ontario and Bridal Veil Falls and American Falls in New York.

3,160-tons of water flow over all three of the Niagara Falls every second, with water plunging 32-feet, or 10-meters, hitting the base with 280-tons of force at the American and Bridal Veil Falls, and 2,509-tons of force at the Horseshoe Falls.

Niagara Falls is capable of producing 4-million kilowatts of electricity, which is shared by the United States and Canada, and is also noteworthy for its present-day and historic hydroelectric and power-generation facilities.

This is what I have come to believe has taken place here over the course of my eight-years of research.

Firstly, I believe that those behind the reset of Earth’s history and the New World Order deliberately caused a cataclysm via some form of directed frequency or energy into the grid system relatively recently, which destroyed the entire energy grid and devastated the surface of the Earth, simultaneously causing the land to undulate and buckle.

This caused, among many other things, swamps, bogs, deserts, dunes, and whole land masses to shear-off and submerge under lakes, 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.

Secondly, I believe that the original civilization of the Earth was nothing at all like what we have been taught, even though the clues and evidence for the highly-advanced, original ancient advanced Moorish civilization surround us all over the Earth.

We don’t recognize the clues and evidence as such because we have no points of reference for them because Earth’s True History is not included the historical narrative we have been given, and instead have been given a fictional explanation for our history and how everything came to be in our world.

In my post “The Backfill of History and the Shaping of Our New Historical Narrative,” I have expressed my belief among other things that famous authors were being used as programming devices with which to shape our collective minds with a new historical narrative and history that we have been thoroughly educated in, and completely covering up what was once a worldwide ancient, advanced Moorish Civilization.

I have identified a 450-year timeline between the Fall of the Moors in Granada in 1492, and 1942, midway through World War II, with 1717 as the mid-point year, that I believe our new false paradigm was based on, and believe that at some point in our narrative, world history has been fabricated and backfilled, and that at some point in our relatively modern history, likely sometime in the 1700s, history became real with the Controllers writing themselves in to the new historical narrative.

The Backfill of History and the Shaping of Our New Historical Narrative

Thirdly, 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.

It’s important to note that the Ames Shovel Shop was established in Easton, Massachusetts, in 1803.

It became nationally known for providing the shovels for the Union Pacific Railroad, which we are told opened the West.

It was said to have been the world’s largest supplier of shovels in the 19th-century.

The year of 1803 that the Ames Shovel Shop was established was in the same time-period as the following historical events.

The Lewis & Clark Expedition, also known as the Corps of Discovery, started on May 14th of 1804 and lasted until September 25th of 1806, with a mission to explore and map the newly acquired western portion of the country after the Louisiana Purchase.

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.

One of the negotiators with France for the terms of the Louisiana Purchase in 1803 on behalf of President Jefferson was the minor French nobleman Pierre Samuel Dupont de Nemours, who was living in the United States at the time.

His son Éleuthère Irénée du Pont, a chemist and industrialist, founded the E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Company to manufacture gunpowder and explosives in 1802, with the du Ponts becoming one of America’s richest families, with generations of influential businessmen, politicians and philanthropists.

So besides the Ames Shovel Shop and the Louisiana Purchase showing up in our narrative in 1803, and the Lewis and Clark Expedition to explore the Pacific Northwest from 1804 until 1806; we have the founding of the DuPont gunpowder and explosives company in 1802 in Wilmington, Delaware.

So two products were established at the very beginning of the 1800s that you would need to dig-out infrastructure – shovels and explosives.

The co-owners of the Ames Shovel Shop at the time the railroads were being brought on-line were the Ames Brothers.

Oliver Ames, Jr, (b. 1807 – d. 1877) was the President of the Union Pacific Railroad from when it met the Central Pacific Railroad in Utah for the completion of the first Transcontinental Railroad in North America in 1869, just four-years after the end of the American Civil War.

The other brother, Oakes Ames, was a member of the U. S. Congress House of Representatives from Massachusetts 2nd District from 1863-1873.

Oakes was credited by many as being the most important influence in building the Union Pacific portion of the first Transcontinental Railroad.

The Pacific Railroad Surveys, a series of explorations of the American West between 1853 and 1857, just a few years before the beginning of the American Civil War, had the stated purpose of finding and documenting possible routes for a transcontinental railroad across North America.

There were five surveys conducted: the Northern Pacific Survey from St. Paul, Minnesota, to Puget Sound; the Central Pacific Survey from St. Louis, Missouri, to San Francisco, California; the Southern Pacific Survey from Oklahoma to Los Angeles, California; the Southern Pacific Survey across Texas to San Diego, California; and along the Pacific Coast from San Diego, California, to Seattle, Washington.

All were carried out under the direction of the U. S. Secretary of War Jefferson Davis, the future President of the Confederacy during the American Civil War.

We are told the volumes of information that were produced from these surveys were considered to constitute the single most important contemporary source of knowledge on western geography and history, and that their value was greatly enhanced by beautifully-illustrated color plates showing the scenery, native inhabitants & fauna and flora of the West.

What if the Pacific Railroad Surveys were undertaken to explore a ruined landscape surveying, as in the definition of surveying meaning “looking at and observing,” everything, including pre-existing rail infrastructure in order to restore it to use once again?

What if the deserts in North America weren’t always deserts as we have been taught to believe?

By May of 1869, just four-years after the end of the American Civil War, the first Transcontinental Railroad in North America was completed with the hammering of the “Golden Spike” connecting the Union Pacific Railroad with the Central Pacific Railroad at Promontory Summit in what was then the Utah Territory.

We are told that the federal government operated a land-grant system between 1855 and 1871, which included the years of the American Civil War between 1861 and 1865, where new railway companies in what we are told was the uninhabited west were given millions of acres they could sell or pledge to bondholders.

Oakes Ames was also noted for his involvement in the Credit-Mobilier Scandal of 1867 during the time of the land-grant system, regarding the improper sale of stock of the railroad’s construction company.

He was formally censured by Congress in 1873 for this involvement, and he died in the same year.

Ten-years later, he was posthumously exonerated by the Massachusetts State Legislature on May 10th, 1883.

Early bankers like the previously mentioned George Peabody and the Brown Brothers & Company were heavily-involved in financing the railroads.

This is what we are told about Brown Brothers & Company: during the first 100-years of its existence, it helped make paper money standard currency in the United States; underwrote the first railroad and trans-Atlantic steamship companies; and essentially created the first foreign exchange system between the American dollar and the British pound.

Why were shovels and explosives so important to the opening of the West and the expansion of infrastructure?

It is my belief that all of this exploration, surveying, and so-called railroad construction took place in a post-cataclysmic world of recent occurrence and that the railroad tracks were already there and just needed to be dug out.

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 for human energy known to us as “The Matrix.”

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 giants could be wiped from the face of the Earth and erased from our collective memory and a new historical narrative superimposed over the ruins of the Old World so we would know nothing about it.

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?

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 have decided to approach the subject about what might be really going on here from the perspective of the “Elite Enclaves of the New World,” so I have pulled together many of my research findings over this years about this topic, and new research I have done for this post, and what this might mean in the bigger picture.

“Elite Enclaves” commonly refer to the geography of high-income communities, and in this post, I am going to be specifically looking at places where elite families have lived, as well as vacationed in the summer months, since the early days of the United States; who lived in these place prior to these elite families; and speculate as to the reason why they may have chosen these places above all others.

The original civilization of the Earth was nothing at all like what we have been taught, even though the clues and evidence for the highly-advanced, original ancient advanced civilization surround us all over the Earth.

We don’t recognize the clues and evidence as such because we have no points of reference for them because Earth’s True History is not included the historical narrative we have been given, and instead have been given a fictional explanation for our history and how everything came to be in our world.

I am going to start by looking at the traditional lands of the Algonquin-speaking Lenape people, also called the Lenni Lenape and the Delaware Indians.

Lenape lands included present-day New Jersey; eastern Pennsylvania along the Delaware River watershed; New York City; western Long Island; and the Lower Hudson Valley.

According to the history we have been taught, everything changed for the Lenape who lived here after Henry Hudson sailed up what is now called the Delaware River in 1609, and this painting depicts what we are taught to believe about all the original people of this land – that they were hunter-gatherers living off the land, and framing the European colonizers as the builders of infrastructure and civilization in the so-called New World.

I am going to give you examples from here of why that narrative doesn’t quite hold up under scrutiny, and also about the fascination and interest the wealthy elites of American society have long had with this region.

So, for example, the highly-affluent Philadelphia suburbs along the railroad tracks of the Pennsylvania Railroad are collectively called the “Main Line.”

The “Main Line” region was part of the “Lenapehoking,” the homelands of the Lenape people that ranged from western Connecticut to Delaware.

“Main Line” towns had the country estates of the wealthiest families of Philadelphia, including those from “Old Money” and “New Money.”

The “Old Philadelphians” is the name given to the First Families of Philadelphia from the old Colonial-era that are considered part of the historic core of the East Coast Establishment, the dominant social group comprised of a self-selecting, closed circle of elite families.

So in the example of the “Main Line” in Philadelphia, I am going to look at families like the Biddles, Drexels and the Hires.

Firstly, the Biddle family is one of the classic “Old Money” Philadelphia families, and considered part of the city’s historical social aristocracy.

The most famous family member was Nicholas Biddle, one of the most important financiers of the early republic.

Nicholas Biddle served as President of the Second Bank of the United States, which was headquartered in the Custom House in Philadelphia, which was said to have been built between 1819 and 1824.

Biddle represented elite centralized finance and he became nationally famous during the “Bank War” with President Andrew Jackson.

The “Bank War” took place between 1832 and 1836, and ultimately resulted in the dissolution of the Second Bank of the United States when President Jackson refused to recharter this Federal Bank, instead removing federal deposits and expanding state banks.

The Biddle family had several “Main Line” estates, but their family estate that really got my attention was not directly on the Main Line, though it is in the Greater Philadelphia area.

The ancestral home of the Biddle family was “Andalusia,”northeast of Philadelphia on the Delaware River in Bensalem Township, and is open to the public these days for tours.

The family estate is located on 75-acres, or 30-hectares, of land, with a mansion said to have been built as a summer home in 1795 that is considered one of the finest examples of Greek Revival architecture in the United States, and proportionally massive compared to the average height of people in our recent history as seen in this photo.

The mansion features original art, sculptures, and rare books & manuscripts that offer a glimpse into the opulent lifestyle of early American high society.

The estate contains formal and informal gardens, and an accredited arboretum with over 250 unique species of plants and trees.

There are several things that I would like to mention here.

The first is Andalusia, the name of the estate.

Andalusia is the southernmost region of Spain.

It is noteworthy for its association with Moorish Spain, a nearly 800-year-period between 711 AD and 1492 AD in our historical narrative that the Moors were recognized for their contributions to civilization, and where they were credited with introducing such things as advanced science and magnificent architecture.

The city of Granada in Andalusia is where the beautiful complex of the Alhambra is located.

The Alhambra is perhaps the most famous example of Moorish architecture and one of the best-preserved palaces of Moorish Spain.

The early American novelist Washington Irving first published his “Tales of the Alhambra: A Series of Tales and Sketches of the Moors and Spaniards” in 1832.

We are told that Washington Irving was in Spain between 1826 and 1829, during which time he published a biography of Christopher Columbus in 1828…

…and he published a book in 1829 after travelling to Granada on “A Chronicle of the Conquest of Granada,” a history of the years 1478 to 1492, and during which time he had also gathered the legends and tales about the Alhambra.

In my post “The Backfill of History and the Shaping of Our New Historical Narrative,” I have expressed my belief among other things that famous authors were being used as programming devices with which to shape our collective minds with a new historical narrative and history that we have been thoroughly educated in, and completely covering up what was once a worldwide ancient Moorish Civilization.

I have identified a 450-year timeline between the Fall of the Moors in Granada in 1492, and 1942, midway through World War II, with 1717 as the mid-point year, that I believe our new false paradigm was based on, and believe that at some point in our narrative, world history has been fabricated and backfilled, and that at some point in our relatively modern history, likely sometime in the 1700s, history became real with the Controllers writing themselves in to the new historical narrative.

More on this to come.

Next, there are two things that I would like to note about Bensalem Township in Pennsylvania.

The first thing is that Bensalem was the name of the mythical utopian island in Sir Francis Bacon’s “New Atlantis” that was first published 1626, after his death in April of that same year.

“New Atlantis” was said to portray a future vision of human discovery and knowledge, and the novel depicts an enlightened utopian land where qualities like generosity, high moral character, and honesty were commonly held by the inhabitants of a mythical island he called “Bensalem.”

There was a state-sponsored scientific institution on Bensalem called “Salomon’s House,” said to envision in the book the modern research university in applied and pure sciences.

I believe Bacon’s “New Atlantis” was actually describing the original advanced and worldwide Moorish civilization, which was the same civilization we know of as Atlantis, that existed in our relatively recent past.

The second thing I would like to mention about Bensalem Township is that it is the current location of the bronze sculpture of a giant disembodied horse’s head called “Horse at Water” at the Parx Casino and Racetrack entrance, a thorough-bred horse-racing venue.

The sculpture was originally installed at the Marble Arch in London in 2011, and sculpted by British artist Nic Fiddian-Green.

They seem to be trying to make a connection between the disembodied horse’s head as somehow symbolizing horses in general and therefore perfectly natural to have at the entrance of a thoroughbred horse-racing venue, but no matter how you spin it, the disembodied horse’s head is still perceived as creepy in the public eye.

I provided numerous examples from around the world, including this one, of bizarre and shocking art in very public places in my blog post “Really Creepy Public Art,” and framed my belief at the end of it that this creepy public art is some sort of soft disclosure, designed to circumvent the requirement of needing to tell us what they have done and are doing to Humanity, without telling us they are telling us, by putting this artwork in places where people can interact with it and accept it as “Art,” without knowing it is communicating to us something that has been very well-hidden about the world we are living in.

Really Creepy Public Art

Next, the Drexel family.

The Drexel family was one of the classic Main Line families from the Gilded Age and the early 20th-century.

The family’s wealth originated in Center City Philadelphia banking through Drexel and Company, and we are told the Drexel family was very influential in the development of Philadelphia and the surrounding area.

Francis Martin Drexel was an Austrian-American painter and banker who founded the banking house of “Drexel and Company” in Philadelphia in 1837, which became one of the largest banks in the United States.

The firm initially specialized as a currency brokerage firm, specializing in discounting privately-issued bank notes and trading foreign exchange, which laid the foundation for it to become a global financial powerhouse.

Anthony Joseph Drexel, the son of Francis, played a major role in the rise of global finance after the American Civil War.

He founded “Drexel, Morgan and Company” in 1871, with J. P. Morgan as his junior partner.

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 18th- and early 19th-centuries.

Morgan was behind the formation of the U. S. Steel Corporation, General Electric, and International Harvester, among many other mergers.

J. P. Morgan’s father was Junius Spencer Morgan.

Junius Spencer Morgan was the founder of the company that would become J. S. Morgan & Company in 1864, that was the successor company to the London-based George Peabody & Company, of which he became the Junior Partner in October of 1854.

In 1854, Morgan was put in charge of the firm’s iron portfolio, which included the marketing of railroad bonds in London and New York.

Back in Philadelphia, perhaps the most famous Drexel Estate on the “Main Line” is the Wootton Estate in Radnor.

It is described as a magnificent summer estate developed by publisher George Childs and his partner Anthony Joseph Drexel.

It featured a 50-room mansion that was said to have been built in 1881, and since 1950 has been the home of the St. Aloysius Academy, the only private, Catholic, all-boys school in the Philadelphia-area.

A couple of interesting side-notes here.

One is that the second-American saint born in the United States, Saint Katherine Drexel, was the daughter of banker Francis Anthony Drexel, the oldest son of Francis Martin Drexel and brother of Anthony Joseph Drexel.

In 1891, she founded what was called the “Congregation of the Sisters of the Blessed Sacrament for Indians and Colored People” in Bensalem, in which she used the vast wealth of $20-million she inherited from her father to finance schools and missions for Native Americans and African-Americans in our historical narrative.

This is the Saint- Katharine Drexel Mission Center and Shrine in Bensalem.

Also interesting to note that Anthony Joseph Drexel was the first president of the Fairmount Park Art Association, the nation’s first private organization dedicated to integrating public art and urban planning that was established in Philadelphia in 1872.

Today, the Association for Public Art works with the city’s Public Art Office, Fairmount Park, and other agencies responsible for placing and caring for outdoor sculptures in Philadelphia.

Like the “Government of the People” statue in the plaza of the Municipal Services Building in Center City, Philadlephia.

It is described thus: A tower of intertwined human arms, legs, and torsos that are arranged in a three-tier totem, with a family at the base representing life; a young couple above representing hope; and figures at the top holding a turbulent shape that is meant to symbolize the banner and flag of Philadelphia.

Fairmount Park in Philadelphia was the location of the 1876 Centennial Exhibition, the first official World’s Fair in the United States,

We are told it was held to celebrate the 100th-Anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence.

German architect Herman Schwarzmann was given the credit for designing all the buildings for the Centennial Exposition, starting in 1869.

This is the Memorial Hall in Fairmount Park, said to have been built as the Art Gallery for the 1876 Centennial Expo, and the only major structure from that exhibition to survive to the present day.

It is currently called the Please Touch Museum, which focuses on teaching mostly children seven-years-old and younger through interactive exhibits and special events.

This was inside the original Horticultural Hall, no longer standing, that was said to be designed for the 1876 Exposition in the Moresque style of the twelfth-century…

…and looks a lot on the outside on the top, like some Oklahoma High Schools to me, like this historic photo of the original Central High School in Tulsa, on the bottom.

The largest Corliss Steam Engine ever built, with its 1,400-horsepower engine, was on display in, and generated all the energy used in, the Machinery Hall during the 1876 Exhibition.

The Corliss Steam Engine was said to have been invented by George Henry Corliss, and patented in 1849. It is a steam engine fitted with rotary valves and variable valve timing, and generally 30% more fuel efficient than conventional steam engines.

Somebody left me this comment after I uploaded the video four years ago called “Exposing Exihibitions, Expositions, and World Fairs Since 1851” about the Corliss Engine looking like a Rukma Vimana.

I looked it up, and sure enough, it does look like a Rukma Vimana!

This was the frontal view of the Corliss steam engine from the 1876 Centennial Exhibition on the left, and an illustration of the Rukma Vimana on the right.

Vimanas have come down to us as ancient flying vehicles that are described in ancient Indian texts.

Lastly for families on the “Main Line,” on the “Lenapehoking,” the homelands of the Lenape people, I want to look at the Hires family.

Charles E. Hires created “Hires Root Beer,” which gained popularity in the 1870s.

The Hires Family came into prominence in the Gilded Age through manufacturing and consumer products and would be considered more “new money” by Philadelphia standards of the day.

He was described as a pharmacist, who developed health remedies and flavoring extracts as he developed his root beer drink, the first successful commercial root beer soft drink.

Charles Hires also owned sugar plantations in Cuba and dairies for his condensed milk factories and plants in the Philadelphia-area and across the country.

Charles Hires had a 21-acre, or 8 1/2-hectare, estate in Merion Station called Rose Hill, as well as one on Buck Lane in Haverford.

There was also the Wanamaker family, which had the Lindenhurst Estate in Jenkinstown, north of Philadelphia, but not directly part of the “Main Line” suburbs of wealthy families.

The Wanamaker family, like the Hires family, was also a “New Money” family, from the Gilded Age, rising to prominence through John Wanamaker, the founder of “Wanamaker’s Department Store” and which went on to became one of the most important and influential department stores in American retail history.

Department stores emerged in the 19th-century as a new way of organizing retail, where one store sold a huge range of goods instead of buying from open-air markets, specialty stores, peddlers and dry-goods stores.

American department stores developed rapidly after the Civil War, which took place in our narrative between 1861 and 1865.

They emerged with industrialization and the mass production of consumer goods; the rise of railroads and steamships facilitating the distribution of goods nationwide; and advertising through newspapers and catalogues.

Interesting to note the Moorish-looking appearance of the 1876 Wanamaker’s Department Store building in Philadelphia shown here.

Wanamaker’s was comparable in prestige and scale to Macy’s in New York, and Selfridge’s in London, though it no longer exists as a retail business.

The Wanamaker Grand Court Organ, the largest fully-functioning pipe organ in the world, today is located in the 7-story Grand Court of Macy’s Center City, formerly Wanamaker’s Department Store.

Said to have been built for the 1904 St. Louis World’s Fair, it has 28, 750-pipes and is famous for its orchestra-like sound as it was designed to imitate a full-size orchestra.

After the World’s Fair in St. Louis, it was said to have languished in storage until 1909, at which time it was purchased by John Wanamaker for his department store in Center City, Philadelphia.

Macy’s Center City is literally just around the corner from the Philadelphia City Hall.

This part of Philadelphia is the historic center of the city.

Philadelphia’s City Hall is the world’s tallest, free-standing masonry building, said to have been designed in the ornate Second French Empire-style of Emperor Napoleon III, and constructed from brick, white marble, and limestone between 1871 and 1901.

At the time it was completed, it was said to have the tallest clock-tower in the world.

Before I go further, I would like to mention it was when I was researching “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, including but not limited to, Henry Hudson who we are told changed everything for the Lenape of this region.

At that time, I found this 1909 publication about Henry Hudson by Thomas Allibone Janvier, described as an American story-writer and historian.

Earlier biographies of Henry Hudson included a book about Henry Hudson that was published by G. M. Asher in 1860 entitled “Henry Hudson the Navigator,” which served as a foundational biographical source for later writers…

…and one that was published by Edgar M. Bacon in 1907 called “Henry Hudson: His Times and His Voyages.”

When I was researching the Hudson River, I found out that 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 Averill 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.

The firm Harriman Brothers & Company grew out of the business empire of W. Averrill Harriman and E. Roland Harriman, the sons of railroad magnate Edward Henry Harriman.

Harriman Brothers & Company merged with the Brown Brothers, originating from Alex. Brown and Sons, the first investment banking firm in the United States in 1800, 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 Edward Henry 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.

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

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

Over the years I have been researching, I have encountered people like Ernst Georg Ravenstein, who was born in Germany in 1834, publishing books in the 19th-century about famous early explorers.

Like Bartolomeu Dias, the Portuguese explorer said to have sailed around the southernmost tip of Africa, the Cape of Good Hope, in 1488, setting up the route from Europe to Asia later on.

Ravenstein was credited with writing the first biography of Dias that was originally published in 1900 and republished in 2010.

Ravenstein was also said to have translated the only known copy of a journal believed to have been written on-board ship during Portuguese explorer’s Vasco da Gama’s voyage to India, which was published in 1898, who made it to India in a journey between 1497 and 1499 in our historical narrative.

Next I am going to move on into the State of New Jersey from the Philadelphia-area, and look at places like Ong or Ong’s Hat, Lake Lenape, Atlantic City, Sayreville, the Navesink Twin Lights, and Holmdel.

First, Ong.

While it is not an elite enclave, I believe it is part of the story of what has taken place here to bring us to the world we live in today.

Ong, or Ong’s Hat, is a ghost town in the Brandon T. Byrne State Forest, and the northern terminus of the Batona Trail, a 53.5-mile, or 86.1-kilometer, hiking trail through the New Jersey Pine Barrens.

Ong is 29-miles, or 47-kilometers, east of Philadelphia.

Ong’s Hat was also considered one of the earliest, internet-based, conspiracy theories.

Ong’s Hat is also listed as the first Alternate Reality Game (ARG) on many lists of ARGs.

We are told that “Ong’s Hat” was a work of alternate-reality collaborative fiction, beginning back in the 1980s and embedded in various media to establish a backstory, and that author Joseph Matheny concluded the project.

Interesting to note on this cover that there are two Moors depicted on it, as seen on the lower left and upper right.

The Ong’s Hat tale was told about a group of physics and science professors from Princeton who ran chaos theory and quantum physics experiments from an ashram there to travel interdimensionally through a device called “The Egg,” and they were camped out in another world.

“The Egg” was said to have been developed by these physicists and scientists as a sensory deprivation chamber, and used by them to determine when a wave becomes a particle.

One day “The Egg” disappeared, and the young man within explained that in the seven-minutes he was gone, he had travelled to an alternate dimension of the Earth.

According to the story about “Ong’s Hat,” these experiments continued over the years, until the military threatened their research, at which time they moved entirely in to the alternate dimension, only coming back for supplies.

Interesting to note that Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst, the only tri-service base in the U. S. Department of Defense, is right there, at a distance of only 8-miles, or 13-kilometers, north of Ong.

At any rate, Ong is reputed to be an interdimensional gateway.

Next, Lake Lenape Park.

This is what we are told about Lake Lenape Park on the Great Egg Harbor River.

The Great Egg Harbor River flows southeast in New Jersey from near Camden, entering the Great Egg Harbor about 5-miles, or 8-kilometers, southwest of Atlantic City.

Lake Lenape was formed after the construction of a dam in May’s Landing around 1847, with the land having previously been an apple orchard.

Interesting to note the megalithic stones used in the construction of the dam.

Lake Lenape Park was said to have first opened in the early 1900s.

Named for the indigenous people who lived here, Lake Lenape Park features Lakeside Manor, a popular wedding and special event venue.

We are told that in 1854, the first railroad was built in the area between Camden and Atlantic City.

So let’s take a look at what they tell us about Atlantic City, which was Lenape land prior to the arrival of European settlers.

We are told in our historical narrative that Jeremiah Leeds was the first permanent European settler in the Atlantic City-area in 1783.

But it was not until 1850 that the idea of this becoming a resort location was conceived, and the first hotel here was said to have been built in 1853.

What became known as “Atlantic City” was incorporated in 1854, the same year that train service began on the Camden and Atlantic Railroad mentioned previously, and providing a direct link to Philadelphia in Pennsylvania.

The first Atlantic City Boardwalk was said to have been built in 1870.

By 1874, an estimated 500,000 were coming to Atlantic City each year by the railroad, and we are told that there were so many people coming to Atlantic City by 1878 that the decision was made to build the Philadelphia and Atlantic City Railroad was constructed to accommodate the increased ridership.

Then, in order to accommodate the increasing number of tourists coming to Atlantic City, massive hotels like the United States Hotel sprang up.

And all of the new railroad lines that were popping up betwixt and between these large population centers and the South Jersey shore were going right through the desolate, swampy and forbidding New Jersey Pine Barrens.

Today there are abandoned trains and railroad lines found throughout the New Jersey Pine Barrens.

Atlantic City’s Steel Pier was said to have been built by the Steel Pier Company that first opened in June of 1898 as an amusement park built on a pier.

Called the “Showplace of the Nation,” it was one of the most popular entertainments in the United States for 70 years.

The Steel Pier continues to operate as an amusement park to this day.

Other examples of the original Moorish-style architecture in Atlantic City included the Marlborough-Blenheim Hotel, which was said to have been built between 1902 and 1906, and demolished in October of 1978…

…the Traymore Hotel, said to have opened in its most recent form in 1906 and demolished in 1972…

…and the Hotel Windsor, about which I can’t find any information to speak of, but presumably long gone.

When I was looking around Atlantic City, I also found out that the largest organ in the world by number of pipes, officially with 33,113, is in the Main Auditorium of the Boardwalk Hall, formerly known as the Atlantic City Convention Hall.

What we are told is that it is one of the few surviving buildings from Atlantic City’s hey-day as a seaside resort.

Recognized by the Guiness Book of World Records as the largest and loudest musical instrument ever constructed, it is called the “Boardwalk Hall Auditorium Organ,” also known as the “Poseidon,” and the “Midmer-Losh,” after the defunct pipe-organ building business that was said to have built the instrument between 1929 and 1932.

This organ has not been fully functional since 1944, when it was first damaged in the 1944 Great Atlantic Hurricane, during which time the Boardwalk Hall was flooded with seawater.

Further damage to the organ was said to have taken place in 2001 when it was improperly handled by workmen during a renovation of the Boardwalk Hall.

While we are told that restoration efforts have been on-going, as of yet it’s not fully-operational.

This is an old postcard showing the Atlantic City and Shore Railroad crossing a two-mile, or 3-kilometer, -long trestle bridge in the middle of the Great Egg Harbor Bay, and was part of an interurban trolley system in New Jersey that served Somers Point and several other cities between Atlantic City and Ocean City in the years between 1907 and 1948.

The reason given for the end of its operation was a hurricane damaging the viaduct in 1948, and fixing it was cost prohibitive because of the decline in trolley use.

Continuing to track the coastline heading north along the New Jersey shoreline from Lake Lenape and Atlantic City, we come to Sayreville, the Navesink Twin Lights, and Holmdel.

First, Sayreville.

Sayreville is located at the mouth of the Raritan River where it enters Raritan Bay in the New York – New Jersey Estuary System.

This whole area is part of what is called the New York – New Jersey Harbor Estuary System, forming one of the most intricate natural harbors in the world, as well as being the busiest port in the world as the Ports of New York and New Jersey are contained within it.

An “estuary” is defined as a partially-enclosed, coastal body of brackish water, which is water that is salty, dirty & unpleasant, with one or more rivers flowing into it, and a connection to the open sea.

Estuaries have been on my radar for quite some time as ruined and sunken land and infrastructure.

Also known as the Hudson-Raritan Estuary, it is described as a harbor system of bays and tidal rivers where the Hudson, Hackensack, Rahway, Passaic and Raritan Rivers meet the Atlantic Ocean, which I believe were all once part of a gigantic canal system.

For one example of a canal in the area that is actually called a canal and not a river, the Delaware and Raritan Canal connects the Delaware River at Bordentown, New Jersey, and the Raritan River at New Brunswick, New Jersey.

This a distance of 44 miles, or 71 kilometers.

It goes through Trenton on its way to the New Brunswick Terminus.

We are told this canal was dug by Irish immigrants using hand-tools between 1830 and 1834, but the sophistication of the engineering of these canals does not match the low technology of the times in which they were said to have been built in our historical narrative.

At any rate, Sayreville at the entrance to the Raritan River received its name from James Sayre, Jr, of Newark, one of the two co-founders of the Sayre and Fisher Brick Company in 1850.

There are extensive clay deposits in the area, and the Sayre and Fisher Company quickly became one of the largest brick-making companies in the world.

Big companies including, but not limited to, DuPont established plants in Sayreville for gunpowder production initially in 1898, and later for paint and photo products.

The Raritan River Railroad operated freight and passenger service through here between 1888 and 1980, after which time Conrail took over rail operations.

This the logo for the Raritan River Railroad on the left, and this is the logo for Rolls Royce on the right….The similarity between these two logos tells me these two companies were connected in some way. …Besides the fact the logos look virtually identical, it brings to mind what I found on a leyline going through Derby, England.

Derby is the geographic center of England, and the Derwent River Valley in Derbyshire is considered the Birthplace of the Industrial Revolution.

Derby is the headquarters of the Civil Aerospace and Nuclear Division of Rolls-Royce, a global aerospace, defense, energy, and marine company focused on world-class power and propulsion systems.

Derby is also the location of the Railway Technical Center, the technical headquarters of British Rail, and considered the largest railway research complex in the world.

I strongly suspect the apparent connection we see in the similarity of the logos of the Raritan River Railroad and Rolls-Royce has to do with bringing the pre-existing railroad infrastructure back on-line, and that it was being funded by the early bankers and financiers that we have seen thus far.

Next, the Navesink Twin Lights are on the Navesink Highlands overlooking Sandy Hook at the entrance to the Lower New York Bay.

Navesink was also the name of the Lenape people who inhabited the Raritan Bayshore near Sandy Hook in the scenic highlands in eastern New Jersey.

The story goes that the Navesink lands were sold by Navesink elders to a group of Dutch businessmen for wampum and goods in March of 1664, the first and largest land sale deal along the Jersey Shore between Native Americans and Europeans, and that the Navesink received in return for their land such things as 5 coats; one gun; 12-pounds of tobacco; and 10 gallons of liquor.

The Navesink Twin Lights were said to have been built in 1862.

The American Civil War is said to have taken place between 1861 to 1865, so we are expected to believe this massive masonry structure was built during war-time.

The Navesink Highlands area is one of the most desirable luxury enclaves on New Jersey’s northern shore.

The region is known for its elevated views; large estates overlooking the Navesink River; proximity to Manhattan ferries; and historic coastal architecture.

Real estate prices here typically range from $1-million to $8-million or more.

Also, I find it quite interesting that according to historical narrative, this first and largest land sale deal along the Jersey Shore that took place here between Native Americans and Europeans, coincidentally…or not…is the same land that was the location of the first Bell Laboratory at Holmdel.

If I were to make an educated guess, I would say that this geographic location on the surface of the Earth was critically important to the original ancient advanced civilization.

What became Bell Labs at Holmdel had a direct connection to the Galactic Center, since this was where, among many other firsts, researchers like Karl Jansky, called the “Father of Radio Astronomy,” was credited with the discovery of radio waves coming from the Galactic Center.

Now I want to connect this information to the bigger picture puzzle pieces about this region.

The first thing I want to bring forward is the ruined looking appearance of the shoreline from the South Jersey Shore on up through the South Shore of Long Island, which is the same thing as the New York – New Jersey Bight.

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 and then what the shoreline looks like going from the New York – New Jersey Estuary System across Long Island to Montauk Point.

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 as we shall see.

The New York Bight is described as a roughly triangular indentation along the Atlantic Coast of the northeastern United States from Cape May, New Jersey, to Montauk Point on the Eastern tip of Long Island.

“Bight” is the term given to a concave bend or curvature in a coastline.

Next I am going to turn my attention to the New York City-area, and Long Island.

There are two designations for historical elite families of New York City that I would like to mention here – the “Uppertens” and the “Four Hundred.”

First, the “Uppertens” was a 19th-century term referring to the wealthiest 10,000 families of New York City, coined in 1844 by Nathaniel Parker Willis, a writer and publisher who became the highest-paid magazine writer of his day.

It came to refer to the upper circles of other major cities besides New York City.

Interesting to note that Nathaniel Parker Willis started a magazine in 1846 with George Pope Morris called “Morris’s National Press – A Home Journal,” which is still with us today as “Town and Country,” the longest-running, continually-published, general-interest magazine in the United States.

The year of 1846 was the same year that Charles Dickens founded and edited the first edition of the “Daily News” in the United Kingdom, which merged with the “Daily Chronicle” in 1930, and was absorbed into “Daily Mail” in 1960.

So back to the “Uppertens.”

The “Uppertens” were the wealthiest and most socially-powerful families in Manhattan, who controlled fashion, culture, politics, philanthropy, and high society.

As time went on, the phrase “Uppertens” was short-hand for Old-Money Manhattan families and Fifth-Avenue Mansion society.

The most famous families associated with this world were the Astors; Vanderbilts; Whitneys; Livingstons; Roosevelts; Schermerhorns; and Morgans.

We are told that New York’s Fifth-Avenue came into existence in 1824 where it started in Washington Square, and soon became the premiere residential address where the grandest mansions ever seen were built as lavish displays of the wealth and status of their owners.

Like the Cornelius Vanderbilt II Mansion at 57th Street and 5th Avenue, which was demolished in 1927, and said to have been the largest private home ever built in Manhattan.

Staten Island-born Cornelius Vanderbilt, the family patriarch, got his start in regional steamboat lines and ocean-going steamships, and from there got into the railroad business.

He bought control of the Hudson River Railroad in 1864; the New York Central Railroad in 1867; the Lake Shore and Michigan Southern Railroad in 1869; and the Canada Southern Railway in 1876.

He consolidated his two key lines into the New York Central and Hudson River Railroad in 1870, becoming one of the first giant corporations in the history of the United States

According to CNN Business, Cornelius Vanderbilt was the second-richest American in history, with an adjusted wealth of $205-billion.

By the 1880s, the social hierarchy became more formalized with the “Four Hundred,” a list of New York Society put together by Caroline Schermerhorn Astor and Ward McAllister, a popular arbiter of social taste in the “Gilded Age of America.”

What was the “Gilded Age?”?”

One definition that I found of “Gilded Age” is that it was a period of gross materialism and blatant political corruption in the United States from the 1870s to 1900.

Another definition is that it was an era of rapid economic growth, especially in the northern and western United States.

At any rate, what was known as the “Mrs. William B. Astor House” was said to have been completed in 1896 on Fifth Avenue for Caroline Schermerhorn Astor, the widow of real estate heir and racehorse owner/breeder William Backhouse Astor Jr, and for her son John Jacob Astor IV.

It was said to have been designed by Richard Morris Hunt in the architectural-style of the early French Renaissance period of King Louis XII from 1498 to 1515.

Mrs. Astor died in 1908, and her son John J. Astor IV was known in history as being the richest man on-board the Titanic when it sank on April 15th of 1912, and a prominent figureof his day who had been opposed to the creation of the Federal Reserve.

The “Mrs. William B. Astor Mansion” was demolished in 1926.

Mrs. Astor died in 1908, and her son John J. Astor IV was known in history as being the richest man on-board the Titanic when it sank on April 15th of 1912, and a prominent figure of his day who had been opposed to the creation of the Federal Reserve.

J. P. Morgan has long been suspected of having been behind what has come down to us as the sinking of the Titanic on April 15th of 1912.

We are told the Titanic sank with bankers opposed to the creation of the Federal Reserve on board.

John Jacob Astor IV was the great grandson of John Jacob Astor.

John Jacob Astor who made a fortune in real estate development, the fur trade, and opium smuggling, and was the progenitor of the Astor family in America.

John Jacob Astor was considered to be the world’s first multi-millionaire, and the third-richest American of all time according to CNN Business, with an adjusted wealth of $138-billion.

The Federal Reserve Act Passed Congress, and was signed into law by President Woodrow Wilson on December 23rd of 1913, the year following the sinking of the Titanic in our historical narrative.

It created and established the Federal Reserve System, and created the authority to issue Federal Reserve Notes (commonly known as the US dollar) as legal tender.

In the Bronx Borough of New York City, the “Thain Family Forest” is a tract of original old-growth forest that has never been logged in the New York Botanical Gardens along the Bronx River, once called the most precious natural possession of New York City.

It consists of several different kinds of trees, like oak, hemlock, beech, and sweet gum.

The New York Times tells us in a 2011 article about it that it was “where the Lenape trod,” the original people here, with the article telling us it was land on which they would hunt.

The New York Botanical Garden is located on 250-acres, or 100-hectares, across from the Bronx Zoo.

The New York Botanical Garden first opened in 1891, 8-years before the Bronx Zoo, and we are told that the first structures on the grounds opened about a decade-later.

This would include the Enid A. Haupt Conservatory, a greenhouse said to have been designed by Lord & Burnham Company in the Italian Renaissance-style, which first opened in 1902

We are told that this conservatory was inspired in part by greenhouse-builder Joseph Paxton’s Crystal Palace, where the 1851 Crystal Palace Exhibition in London was held, the first of a series of major World’s Fairs, Expositions, Exhibitions that took place primarily over the next 100-years, which were described as “large, global exhibitions designed to showcase the achievements of nations.”

So, for example, we are told the purpose of the first Great Exhibition at the Crystal Palace was making clear to the world Britain’s role as industrial leader, while at the same time providing a platform on which other countries from around the world could display their achievements.

I have long seen them as showcasing the technology and architectural wonders of the original civilization before being hidden away or forever destroyed, like what we saw back in Philadelphia at the 1876 Centennial Exhibition.

The Bronx Zoo adjacent to the New York Botanical Garden is the largest metropolitan zoo in the United States, and first opened in November of 1899, featuring 843 animals in 22 exhibits.

We are told that the zoo’s original buildings, known as “Astor Court,” were designed and built as a series of Beaux-Arts Pavilions between 1899 and 1910.

I would also like to make note of the Century Association in New York City.

It was a private social, arts and dining club, and named after the first 100 people proposed as members.

The Century Association Building at 42 E. 15th Street was in-use by the association starting in 1857.

Members of the Century Association have included artists and writers like: poet and journalist William Cullen Bryant; landscape painter Frederick Edwin Church; landscape painter Winslow Homer; and best-known for stained-glass-work, Louis Comfort Tiffany.

Architect members have included: landscape-architects Calvert Vaux and Frederick Law Olmsted; Beaux-Arts architects Carrere and Hastings, as well as York and Sawyer; and architects McKim, Meade and White, who were said to have defined the ideals of the American Renaissance in end-of-the-century New York.

Other members were said to have included: Eight U. S. Presidents; ten U. S. Supreme Court Justices; forty-three Members of the Presidential Cabinet; twenty-nine Nobel Prize Laureates; members of the Rockefeller, Vanderbilt, Roosevelt, and Astor families; as well as financier J. P. Morgan.

Now I am going to focus on Long Island, starting with Coney Island

Coney Island is located across the Lower New York Bay from where I was looking in New Jersey.

Coney Island is geographically on western Long Island, and is the southwestern tip of New York City’s Borough of Brooklyn.

Coney Island became connected to the rest of the main Long Island landmass through landfill in the early-20th-century.

Historically, there were three major amusement parks with Moorish-looking infrastructure/architecture on Brooklyn’s Coney Island – Steeplechase Park; Luna Park; and Dreamland.

Steeplechase Park on Coney Island was said to have been created by entrepreneur George Tilyou in 1897.

The park included over 50 attractions on its midway alone.

The only remaining structure from Steeplechase Park is the defunct Parachute Jump, next to Maimonades Park, the location of a minor league baseball stadium.

Coney Island’s Luna Park was said to have opened in 1903, and operated until 1944.

We are told the park’s architectural style was an oriental theme, with over 1,000 red and white painted spires, minarets, and domes on buildings constructed on a grand scale.

All the domes, spires, and towers were lit-up at night with hunreds of thousands of incandescent lights.

In the middle of the lake at the center of the park was a 200-foot, or 61-meter, tall Electric Tower that was decorated with 20,000 incandescent lamps.

The end of Luna Park came with two fires in 1944, one in August and one in October, which destroyed the park, and in 1946, the whole park was demolished.

There has been a Luna Park operating near the original location since 2010 that has no connection to the 1903 park.

Dreamland was the third and last of the three original parks said to have been built on Coney Island in the early 20th-century, first opening in 1904.

Everything at Dreamland was touted to be bigger than Luna Park, including the larger Electric Tower, and four times as many incandescent lights than Luna Park.

Dreamland’s life on Coney Island was ended only 7-years after opening.

On May 27th of 1911, a fire started at the Hell Gate attraction the night before the season’s opening day, and spread quickly, completely destroying the park by morning.

Next we come to Brighton Beach, Just west of Jamaica Bay, where we find megalithic rocks strewn about on the beach…

…and the explanation we are given for faces amongst the rocks was that there was a mystery artist in the 1970s who carved them.

Jamaica Bay is next, which is called a partially-manmade and partially natural estuary on the western-end of Long Island, and contains numerous marshy islands.

Jamaica Bay spreads across the New York City boroughs of Brooklyn and Queens.

John F. Kennedy International Airport is on the northeast side of Jamaica Bay.

Interestingly, there is a rapid transit line of the New York subway system that operates here, the IND Rockaway Line that runs between the Aqueduct Racetrack Station terminal through the marshy Jamaica Bay to the Rockaway Park-Beach 116th Street Station terminal, like the previously-seen Atlantic City and Shore Railroad that crossed in the middle of the Great Egg Harbor Bay, and was part of an interurban trolley system in New Jersey between 1907 and 1948.

Going in a northeasterly direction on Long Island from Jamaica Bay, we come to the long, narrow, and shallow Great South Bay on Long Island’s South Shore in Suffolk County.

The Great South Bay is described as a shallow lagoon that is 45-miles, or 72-kilometers-, long, and has an average depth of a little over 4-feet, or 1.2-meters, and is 20-feet, or 6-meters, at its deepest.

I will share this book cover here and say that during the Gilded Age, the Vanderbilts, Roosevelts, Whitneys, Morgans, and Woolworths were said to have built summer mansions on the South Shore.

The elite families of the Gilded Age were also found on the North Shore of Long Island, also known as “Long Island’s Gold Coast.”

We are told “Long Island’s Gold Coast” had over 500 lavish mansions and castles built in 70-square-miles, or 180-kilometers-squared, by the very wealthy of the Gilded Age.

Like the Oheka Castle, which is also known as the Otto Kahn Estate, located on the North Shore of Long Island in the town of Huntington.

It was said to have been built between 1914 and 1919 as a country home for the investment financier Otto Kahn and his family, and was considered to be the second-largest private home in the United States.

Today, the Oheka Castle is an historic hotel with 32-guest rooms and suites.

In case you have never heard of him, the fabulously wealthy Otto Kahn was the inspiration for the Mr. Moneybags character of the Monopoly board game.

It is interesting how powerful but otherwise unknown people like this example here get inserted in our collective consciousness in seemingly innocent ways.

The Harbor Hill Moraine that skirts the North Shore of Long Island was said to have resulted from advancing glaciers 18,000 years ago…

…and named for Harbor Hill in Roslyn, New York, the highest point in Nassau County, where the Harbor Hill Mansion was said to have been built between 1899 – 1902 for the telecommunications magnate Clarence Hungerford Mackay, and designed by Stanford White of the architectural firm of McKim, Mead and White.

Long Island Sound runs from west- to-east between the East River in New York City, along the North Shore of Long Island.

Long Island Sound is a tidal estuary and marine sound of the Atlantic ocean.

A sound is the term given to a smaller body of water connected to a larger sea or ocean.

Suffolk County on Long Island’s East End is comprised of the towns of Brookhaven, which includes the Long Island Central Pine Barrens; East Hampton; Southampton, which includes Westhampton; Shelter Island; Southold; and Riverhead.

I am going to highlight several places found here.

First, Brookhaven.

The town of Brookhaven on Long Island is the namesake of the Brookhaven National Laboratory in nearby Upton, a U. S. Department of Energy Laboratory.

The Department of Energy National Laboratory was established in 1947, with a stated desire to “explore peaceful applications for atomic energy” after World War II.

The Laboratory has developed a broader mission over time, including: nuclear and high-energy physics; physics and chemistry of materials; nanoscience; energy and environmental research; national security and nonproliferation; neuroscience; structural biology; and computational sciences.

The research facilities of Brookhaven National Laboratory include the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC), the first and one of two operating heavy-ion colliders, and only spin-polarized proton collider ever built.

It is also said to be the only operating particle collider in the United States, as physicists study the primordial form of matter that existed in the Universe after what we are told was the “Big Bang,” a physical theory about an event that describes how the Universe expanded from an initial state of high density and temperature.

The worlds’ other operating heavy-ion collider is the Large Hadron Collider, or LHC and also known as CERN, near Geneva, Switzerland.

In addition to the RHIC, the Brookhaven hosts the National Synchrotron Light Source II, designed to produce x-rays 10,000-times brighter than the original National Synchrotron Light Source at Brookhaven National Laboratory.

We are told it supports basic and advanced energy technologies in a wide-variety of applications, from nano-catalyst-based fuel cells to economical use of solar energy in high-temperature superconductors in a high-capacity and high-reliability electric grid.

Next, the Long Island Central Pine Barrens is called Long Island’s largest natural area and last remaining wilderness.

The Brookhaven National Laboratory is located within the Central Long Island Pine Barrens.

The Pine Barrens recharge a federally-designated sole source aquifer for Long Island’s fresh drinking water, which comes from groundwater wells.

Almost all of Long Island’s Peconic and Carmans Rivers, and their watersheds, two of the four major rivers here, are in the Pine Barrens.

Like I said previously with regards to the rivers in the New York – New Jersey Harbor Estuary System, it is my belief that we are looking at what once was a canal system.

The Peconic River drains an area between the Harbor Hill Moraine, flowing into Flanders Bay, and connecting to Peconic Bay, the bay between Long Island’s North and South Forks, east of Riverhead.

It originates in bogs and wetlands in Central Long Island, and is freshwater until it becomes an estuary in Riverhead, a town and township on the northern edge of the Pine Barrens.

It is interesting to note that the former location of Tesla’s Wardenclyffe Tower was in Shoreham on Long Island, located on the North Shore of Long Island and a short distance north of Brookhaven National Laboratory.

The Wardenclyffe Tower was said to have been built on land next to a railroad line by Tesla between 1901 and 1902 as an early experimental wireless transmission station based on his theories of using the Earth to conduct the signals.

Stanford White, of the architectural firm of McKim, Meade, and White, was said to have designed the original brick building and tower which the Wardenclyffe Tower sat beside.

We are told that the primary financial backer of Tesla’s project was J. P. Morgan until he refused Tesla’s request for more funding to increase the size of the facility and implement his ideas of wireless transmission to compete better with Marconi’s radio-based telegraph system.

By 1906, we are told the project was abandoned because there were no further investors and that by 1917, which would have been during World War I, the tower was demolished for scrap.

The brick building next to it remained standing up until relatively recently, and part of the Tesla Science Center.

A mysterious fire in November of 2023 severely damaged Tesla’s last remaining laboratory.

This fire happened just before the start of a significant renovation and restoration project that was poised to get started for which millions of dollars had been raised.

The towns of Southampton and East Hampton together are what are known as “The Hamptons,” another one of the historical summer colonies of the wealthy elite in our society.

Southampton is on the eastern side of the Long Island Central Pine Barrens, and the Central Pine Barrens Planning Commission is in Westhampton Beach, on the western side of Southampton…

…where you find the Westhampton dunes…

…considered prime land and luxury real estate for those that can afford it…

…and canals, like the Moneybogue Canal, which requires dredging to get rid of the sediment at the bottom of the waterway.

We are told that Southampton was founded in 1640 by a group of ten settlers from Lynn, Massachusetts, who obtained land from the Shinnecock Nation by signing a lease, and the town grew quickly and over the next few years, established an early whaling industry here.

The Algonquin Shinnecock Nation’s reservation is in Southampton, and we are told, among thirteen Indian tribes on Long Island, largely based on kinship.

In 2005, the Shinnecock filed a lawsuit against the State of New York seeking return of 3,500 acres, or 14 km-squared, in Southampton, and billions of dollars for damages, challenging the State Legislature’s approval of an 1859 sale of 3,500 acres of tribal land.

The disputed land included the Shinnecock Hills Golf Course.

In 2006, the court ruled against the Shinnecock Nation, however, finding the lawsuit was barred by laches, or a lack of diligence or activity for making a legal claim or moving forward with legal enforcement of a right.

They did finally receive federal recognition in 2010, after a 30-year effort that included suing the Department of the Interior.

The township of East Hampton is on the eastern end of Long Island’s South Shore.

East Hampton includes the following hamlets: Montauk, Springs, Wainscott, Amagansett, part of Sag Harbor, and jurisdiction over the privately-owned Gardiners Island.

The hamlet of Montauk is on the eastern end of Long Island’s South Fork.

The Montauks, also known as the Montauketts, once resided in large numbers on the eastern end of Long Island.

In 1910, a Judge ruled that the Montauks no longer existed as a tribe and were disenfranchised from their ancestral lands.

More on this in a moment.

The Montauk Point Lighthouse is on Turtle Hill at the easternmost tip of Long Island, and not only was it said to be the first built within the State of New York, it was said to be the first public works project in the new United States because shippers were said to have needed a lighthouse at the end of Long Island to guide them along the south side into New York Harbor.

It is said to be the fourth-oldest active lighthouse in the United States, and also today a privately-run museum.

We are told that construction of the lighthouse was authorized by the Second United States Congress in April of 1792 and that the lighthouse was built between July and November of 1796.

The U. S. Army took over the lighthouse during World War II, and opened Camp Hero, or Montauk Air Force Station, in 1942, adjacent to the lighthouse.

The remnants of Camp Hero are said to be four gun-battery casements, emplacements and concrete fire control towers at the nearby Camp Hero State Park today.

Camp Hero on Montauk Point is alleged to be the location of the Montauk Project, a series of U. S. Government projects with the purpose of developing things like psychological warfare techniques, like MK Ultra, and time-travel research, among others.

We are entering a place on Earth where so-called “Conspiracy Theories” like the Montauk Project abound.

The Conspiracy-Theory Montauk Project was the inspiration for the Netflix show “Stranger Things,” which was originally billed as “Montauk.”

Interesting to note there is a “Pharoah” surname amongst the Montauks.

This is a painting of David Pharaoh of the royal family of the Montauk tribe, depicting sand dunes.

He was born in 1835 and died on July 18th of 1878.

He was buried in the Indian Field Cemetery on the old reservation lands on East Lake Drive in Montauk.

Princess Pocahontas Pharaoh was born on February 15th of 1878, the last Montauk born on the Montauk Reservation at Indian Field on Montauk Point, a year before the reservation was sold.

She was the youngest daughter of King David Pharaoh and Queen Maria Fowler Pharaoh of the Montauk Tribe.

The King of the tribe always came from the Pharaoh family.

Pocahontas Pharaoh was born in the middle of efforts by Arthur Benson and the Long Island Railroad to force the Montauks off their Land.

Benson purchased Montauk in October of 1879 for $151,000 and allowed for the expansion of the Long Island Railroad through it.

In 1897, King Wyandanch Pharaoh, Pocahontas’ brother, went to court to try to get the Montauk land back and fought until 1910, at which time a New York court held that the Montauk Tribe was extinct and stripped the nation of its tribal lands.

Interesting side-note that at least in the Romance languages, the word for lighthouse includes the root sound of “Far”:

In Italian and Spanish, the word for lighthouse is “Faro;” In French, the word for lighthouse is “Phare;” in Portuguese, it is “Farol;” and in Romanian “Far.”

They are spelled and sound like they are related to the word “Pharaoh,” which we are told was the common title for monarchs of ancient Egypt from the First Dynasty, starting in 3,150 BC, up to the annexation of Egypt by the Roman Empire in 30 BC.

Throwing this information into the mix for consideration since both a lighthouse and pharaohs are found on Montauk Point.

The Moors were the custodians of the Ancient Egyptian mysteries, according to George G. M. James in his book “Stolen Legacy.”

Next, Block Island Sound extends from Montauk Point on the eastern tip of Long Island and separates Block Island from the coast of mainland Rhode Island to the east, and contains places like Gardiners Island, Plum Island, Fishers Island, and Block Island.

First, Gardiners Island.

Gardiners Island is a small island located in Gardiners Bay between the North and South Forks of Long Island.

In our historical narrative, the island has been owned by the Gardiner family since 1659, when we are told Lion Gardiner, an English engineer and colonist who founded the first English Settlement in New York here, was said to have purchased it from the Montauk Grand Sachem Wyandanch for “…a large black dog, some powder and shot, and a few Dutch blankets.”

Wyandanch died that same year, and after his death, the title of “Grand Sachem” went into decline and was eliminated by the colonists after they conquered the region of what was known as “New Netherlands” at the time.

What I am able to find in a search is that the title “Sachem” was the title given to a Native American Chief, in particular the chief of a confederation of Algonquin tribes.

“Sagamore” was the title given to a chief or leader of the Algonquins.

This selection from William Wood’s book was of a map showing the plantations along Massachusetts Bay, and the word or name Sagamore is seen in several places.

William Wood’s book from 1639 was entitled: “New Englands Prospect” and called “A true, lively and experimentall description of that part of America commonly called New England; discovering the state of that Countrie, both as it stands to our new-come English Planters; and to the old native inhabitants. Laying down that which might enrich the knowledge of the mind-travelling reader, or benefit the future voyager.”

While not under the jurisdiction of the Colonies of Connecticut or Rhode Island, Gardiners Island did fall under the jurisdiction of William Alexander, the 1st Earl of Stirling, who had been given Long Island by the King Charles I of England in 1636, and who required that Gardiner gain approval of his land grant, which he did in 1639 with a royal patent giving him the right to possess the land forever, and given the title of “Lord of the Manor.”

Gardiners Island is a little over 5-square-miles, or 13.4-kilometers-squared, and has more than 1,000 acres of old growth forest, considered by some to be the largest old-growth forest on the northeast coast of the United States.

Passed down through the Gardiner family for over 380-years, the Gardiner mansion on the island is considered to be the oldest family estate in America.

Next, Plum Island.

Plum Island is an island that is part of Southold in Suffolk County, New York, and located in Gardiners Bay, off the eastern end of Long Island’s North Fork peninsula on the eastern end of Long Island.

Plum Island is owned by the United States government, and access to it controlled by the U. S. Department of Homeland Security.

Next, Plum Island is only 17-miles, or 27-kilometers, south-southeast of Lyme, Connecticut, the place which gave “Lyme Disease” its name.

The origin story of the disease goes like this:

A mysterious ailment afflicted a group of people in and around Lyme, Connecticut, in the 1970s, and that the cause of Lyme Disease was found to be a form of spiral-shaped bacteria transmitted by the bite of a certain kind of tick.

Lyme Disease causes symptoms like a rash, flu-like symptoms, joint-pain and weakness, among others.

Coincidentally…or not…there is a National Disease Center on Plum Island, which was established in 1954 by the United States Department of Agriculture.

The facility maintains laboratories up to biosafety-level 3, which involves microbes which can cause serious and potentially lethal disease by inhalation.

Next, Fishers Island is also a part of Southold, New York, at the eastern end of Long Island, located in close proximity to Connecticut and Rhode Island as well.

Named Munnawtawkit by the Pequot, it was said to have been named “Vischer’s Island” by the explorer Adrian Block in 1614 after one of his companions.

The Pequot Nation is indigenous to Connecticut.

The Pequot Nation was classified extinct by colonial authorities after the Pequot Wars that took place between 1636 and 1638, effectively decimating them as a viable tribe, as survivors were either sold into slavery to colonists in the West Indies or Bermuda, otherwise taken captive, or absorbed into other tribes.

Of 5 Pequot tribes in existence today, the Mashantucket Pequot Tribe is the only one that is federally-recognized…

Mohegan-Pequot was an Algonquin-language spoken by the Mohegan, Pequot, and Niantic people of southern New England, and the Montauks and Shinnecock of Long Island.

The last living speaker of Mohegan-Pequot died in 1908.

We are told that historically Mohegan-Pequot did not have a writing system, and that the only significant writings came from European colonizers who interacted with speakers of the language.

I am quite sure that James Fenimore Cooper’s “Last of the Mohicans,” first published in 1826, was an early novel introducing and reinforcing the new historical narrative.

What I found in our narrative about Fisher’s Island is that John Winthrop the Younger, son of the Massachusetts Bay Colony Founder and Governor John Winthrop, which was established in 1630, received a grant of Fisher’s Island in 1640.

The island was privately held by the Winthrop family until 1863, then owned privately by others until 1879, when a joint-commission for Connecticut and New York reiterated that New York had legal title to Fisher’s Island, even though it has closer ties to Connecticut because of its proximity.

Between 1783 and 1909, brick-making was the only industry on the island because of the clay-pits there, and at its peak in the 1880s, the brickyard was believed to be the largest in the country, with a production capacity of 18-million bricks per year.

We are told that horse-drawn railroad cars were used to transport clay produced by hundreds of miners wielding shovels to the brick presses.

Since the 1920s, Fishers Island has been a playground for the social register set that includes the Rockefellers, DuPonts, Whitneys, and Roosevelts, and two-thirds of the island is off-limits to everyone except residents and their guests.

The social centers of Fishers Island are two private, exclusive clubs that rarely allow outsiders in – the Fishers Island Club and the Hay Harbor Club.

The Fishers Island Club is located near the eastern end of Fishers Island, and has an 18-hole golf course, said to have been designed by Seth Raynor and opened in 1926, that was ranked in 2009 as ninth in “Golf Digest” of the top 100 golf courses in the world.

The Hay Harbor Club was established in 1909, and is on the western end of Fishers Island.

Among other things, it has a 9-hole golf course said to have been designed by George Strath and opened in 1898.

Next, a look at Rhode Island’s Block Island.

It is 9-miles, or 14-kilometers, south of the Rhode Island mainland, and 14-miles, or 23-kilometers, east of Long Island’s Montauk Point.

Block Island was named for Adrian Block, a Dutch privateer who was employed by the Dutch East India Company who charted the area in 1614 in our historical narrative.

New Shoreham is the only town on Block Island.

Block Island School is the only school here, teaching students from kindergarten through 12th-grade.

It was said to have been built in 1933 to replace five, one-room schoolhouses, and still use today, with some architectural changes over the years.

Mansion Beach today is a secluded beach on the island’s northeast coast, known for its white sand and big waves.

It was so-named because there was a mansion once here, said to have been designed by Massachusetts architect Edward F. Searles as a dream home for he and his wife, the widow of San Francisco Central Pacific Railroad magnate Mark Hopkins and constructed between 1886 and 1888.

Searles’ wife, Mary Hopkins Searles, was often referred to as the richest woman in America, and shortly after they married, she bequeathed him her entire fortune.

Searles was one of those architects credited with the design of other monumental architecture, including, but not limited to, the interior design for the Kellogg Terrace, known today as Searles Castle, in Great Barrington, Massachusetts, said to be one of America’s great masterpieces of gothic and Neo-Renaissance architecture built in 1883 by Stanford White of the architectural firm of McKim, Mead & White.

It sure looks to me like Searles Castle sits atop a star fort base, compared with Fort Loreto, a star fort in Puebla, Mexico, on the right.

Searles was credited with the design of the giant nave at Searles Castle which still houses one of the largest pipe organs built in a residence in the United States.

At any rate, after having been abandoned for years, the Searles Mansion back on Block Island burned down in the 1960s, and was never rebuilt.

Block Island has thirteen distinct beaches.

This rocky beach is a clothing optional beach below the Mohegna Bluffs, which has a sheared-off-looking quality to it.

The huge rocks found here also look megalithic, like they were shaped and cut.

The next place we come to is Newport, Rhode Island.

Newport is a seaside city in Rhode Island’s Narragansett Bay, located 33-miles, or 53-kilometers, southeast of Providence.

The Narragansetts are an Algonquin-speaking people indigenous to what became the State of Rhode Island.

Here is an historic photo of the Narragansett.

Their language died out in the 19th-century, though the they have been trying to revive it using written source material.

Across the Narragansett Bay from Newport, in the town of Narragansett, we find a stone masonry building called the Towers, said to have been built between 1883 and 1886 by the ubiquitous architectural firm of McKim, Mead and White as part of a Victorian-era casino and social-elite resort facility.

Also known as the “Twin Towers,” it is all that remains after a history of disasters, including fires and hurricanes.

In our historical narrative, Newport was first incorporated as a town in 1639 by a group of nine founding English colonists, after the Colony of Rhode Island had been established in 1636 by Roger Williams, and only six-years after the Massachusetts Bay Colony was established in 1630.

Newport is known for its “Gilded Age Mansions.”

Many members of New York City’s list of “Four Hundred” elite families had massive cottage estates in Newport.

LIke the summer cottage estate known as “The Breakers” that was said to have been built between 1893 and 1895 for Cornelius Vanderbilt II.

It was said to have been patterned after a Renaissance Palace, and built with marble imported from Italy and Africa, as well as rare wood and mosaics from countries around the world.

The “Marble House” was another Vanderbilt family summer cottage in Newport.

It was said to have been built between 1888 and 1892 for Alva and William K. Vanderbilt.

And “Beechwood,” which was said to have been built in 1851, and became the summer cottage estate in 1880 of Caroline Schermerhorn Astor, who had a massive ballroom built in it to accommodate her society events. and it became the epicenter of Newport High Society.

Next, we come to the Elizabeth Islands, Martha’s Vineyard, and Nantucket Island off the coast of Massachusetts.

The Elizabeth Islands are a small chain of islands off the southern coast of Cape Cod, on the southern edge of Buzzard Bay, and is separated from Martha’s Vineyard by Vineyard Sound.

All of the Elizabeth Islands, with the exception of Cuttyhunk and Penikese, are privately-owned by the Forbes family, a wealthy American family of Scottish descent long prominent in Boston.

The family’s original fortune came largely from trading opium and tea between North America and China in the 19th-century.

Forbes family members include businessman John Murray Forbes, among other things a railroad magnate and President of the Michigan Central Railroad, and the Chicago, Burlington, and Quincy Railroad in the 1850s; and John Forbes Kerry, present-day politician, and the Secretary of State in President Obama’s second administration.

Like we saw with the Astor family, along with other well-known moneyed families, the Boston Forbes family’s original fortune came in large part from trading opium (and tea) between North America and China in the 19th-century.

This information about opium-trading is on the Forbes’ website, so they do not even try to hide this information from us.

The Forbes family were part of the “Boston Brahmins,” the historic upper elite class of Boston, Massachusetts, widely considered America’s closest equivalent to an aristocracy.

The “Brahmins” dominated New England’s intellectual, cultural and financial institutions from the late-19th- to the mid-20th-centuries, and were instrumental in founding and running major American educational institutions like Harvard University and M.I.T.

Their recognizable surnames included, besides the Forbes family, the Cabots, Lowells, Lodges, Adamses, and Peabodys.

The term “Boston Brahmins” was coined by Oliver Wendall Holmes in an 1860 article in the “Atlantic Monthly,” after he likened Boston’s prestigious, old-money elite to the highest-ranking Brahmin class in Hindu society.

The “Atlantic Monthly” was established in Boston in 1857 as a literary and cultural commentary magazine by a collective of distinguished writers including Ralph Waldo Emerson, Harriet Beecher Stowe, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, and first editor James Russell Lowell.

Next, Martha’s Vineyard, an island located south of Cape Cod and the Elizabeth Islands, is a popular summer colony for the wealthy.

Martha’s Vineyard, along with the adjacent Chappaquiddick Island, another small island off the coast of Martha’s Vineyard called “Noman’s Land,” and the Elizabeth Islands together comprise Massachusetts’ Dukes County.

First, a little bit about Martha’s Vineyard.

Martha’s Vineyard, as of the 2010 Census, had a year-round population of approximately 17,500 people, and in the summer months the population grows to somewhere around 100,000.

In a study by the Martha’s Vineyard Commission, the Cost-of-Living on the island was found to be 60% higher than the national average, and the cost of housing 96% higher.

Vineyard Haven was named the #1 most expensive town in the United States by Lending Tree in 2021.

When the European colonizers arrived, the island was inhabited by the Wampanoag, the Algonquin indigenous people of eastern Rhode Island and southeastern Massachusetts.

There is something interesting to note about the Algonquin language.

It is extremely hard to find this kind of information because of the hunter-gatherer theme going on with indigenous peoples of North America in the narrative, but I found an example in the written language script of the Algonquin Mikmaq people of Nova Scotia, and it is that of an apparent connection to the Egyptian language script.

The Wampanoag Tribe of Gay Head, or Aquinnah, on Martha’s Vineyard is one of only two federally-recognized Wampanoag Tribes, the other one being the Mashpee Wampanoag Tribe, headquartered in Mashpee on Cape Cod.

The Wampanoag on Martha’s Vineyard are headquartered in Aquinnah on the southwest tip of Martha’s Vineyard, part of the lands where they have lived for thousands of years which were dispossessed by English settlers encroaching on their lands.

Aquinnah, which was incorporated as a town named Gay Head, between 1870 and 1997, is the location of the Aquinnah Cliffs.

The Aquinnah Cliffs, with streams of red and orange clay mixed with sand, were said to have been formed by glaciers millions of years ago.

These cliffs have that same, sheared-off-looking quality to them like other places we have already seen through here.

The Gay Head Lighthouse located here was featured in the 1975 movie “Jaws.”

There is an interesting, and lengthy back-story to the Gay Head Lighthouse.

But long story short, at one time there were more buildings here.

Now there is only one, which looks like there is possibly more to it under the ground.

Also interesting to note that I found this article talking about there being a deaf community on Martha’s Vineyard from its earliest settlement through the 19th-century.

It would appear from the article that the deaf people here attracted a lot of interest and questions.

More thoughts on this to come.

Chappaquiddick Island is a small peninsula that occasionally becomes an island, and part of the town of Edgartown, on the eastern end of Martha’s Vineyard.

Well, if you ever wondered where the Chappaquiddick of the infamous incident involving Ted Kennedy and an overturned vehicle containing the body of a woman back in July of 1969, it was right here.

The small island called “Nomans Land” is located three-miles, or 5-kilometers, off the southwest coast of Martha’s Vineyard and was used as a practice bombing range by the United States Navy between 1943 and 1996.

The island of Nantucket is 30-miles, or 50-kilometers, south of Cape Cod, and together with the islands of Tuckernuck and Muskeget, constitutes the Town and County of Nantucket of Massachusetts, and like Martha’s Vineyard, a summer colony for the wealthy.

The name Nantucket was said to have been adapted from a similar-sounding Algonquin name for the island of the indigenous Wampanoag people.

The National Park Service cites Nantucket as being the finest example of a late 18th- and early 19th-century New England Seaport town, and was designated a National Historic Landmark District in 1966.

Nantucket Island was perhaps best-known for the historical importance of its whaling industry, particularly during the 18th- up to the mid-19th-centuries.

The Great Fire of 1846 devastated the downtown business hub of Nantucket, starting in a hat store and completely destroying more than one-third of the heart of the community and economy, and leaving many homeless, in poverty, and causing them to leave the island.

Great fires (and floods for that matter) destroying the central business districts of cities and towns around the world were quite common in our historical narrative, seemingly as a way to either destroy the original infrastructure, and/or take credit for the building of it afterwards, and as well as to deliberately cause disruption and displacement.

Next, we come to Cape Cod and the Southeastern Massachusetts Pine Barren (SEMBP) Association, which is headquartered at The Center at Center Hill Preserve in Plymouth.

The SEMBP is on land that extends from Duxbury to Provincetown along the Cape Cod Bay shoreline, covering Cape Cod, the Elizabeth Islands, Nantucket Island and Martha’s Vineyard, and inland includes Southeastern Massachusetts, including Plymouth and surrounding communities.

It so happens that this is the same Plymouth that was the location of the Plymouth Colony, the Pilgrim settlement founded in 1620 in our historical narrative by the Pilgrims after they journeyed from England to the New World on the Mayflower, seeking religious freedom, as we are taught and celebrate every year in the United States at Thanksgiving.

This is the Plymouth Rock Monument in Plymouth.

The current classical monument housing it was said again to have been designed in 1921 by the architectural firm of McKim, Mead & White of the elitist Century Association in New York City.

The Pilgrim Monument in Provincetown, Massachusetts, is on the northern end of Cape Cod.

It was said to have been the winning design submitted by Boston architect Willard T. Sears in a contest, and built between 1907 and 1910 to commemorate the first landfall of the Pilgrims in 1620 and the signing of the Mayflower Compact in Provincetown Harbor.

The Pilgrim Monument is a bell-tower, and the tallest, all-granite structure in the United States, and said to have been modelled after the Torre del Mangia in Siena, Italy, which is said to have been designed in 1309.

It is 252-feet, 7.5-inches, or 77-meters, tall.

Granite is described as a “sonorous” rock, meaning that it will make a sound if you strike it, and in the case of granite, it will make a bell-like sound.

Now I am going to talk about the location of the Pine Barrens in New Jersey, Central Long Island, and Coastal Massachusetts.

There is a linear relationship between these three Pine Barren ecosystems.

The Pine Barrens have nutrient-poor, sandy and acidic soil, characterized by bogs.

Here is the linear relationship on Google Earth when I searched for the Pine Barrens in New Jersey; the Central Long Island Pine Barrens; and the Coastal Massachusetts Pine Barrens, also known as the Plymouth Pinelands- the pins are placed where that search term for each popped-up, and each place I have mentioned in this post – near Ong in New Jersey; Westhampton Beach on Long Island; and Plymouth in Massachusetts.

I believe this Pine Barren alignment was ground-zero for the cataclysmic event that destroyed the surface of the Earth, and that this event took place relatively recently.

I believe that the landscape we see today here in the northeast United States, and all over the world, was born out of the trauma and changes to the earth’s surface as it buckled and ruptured, and gave way amidst thunderous sound and gigantic force as a result of the deliberate destruction of the original free energy grid that was for the benefit of all life everywhere, and subsequently transformed by those ushering in the “New World Order” into what we know as the Matrix for the benefit of the very few behind the reset of the original earth’s history, which I believe started sometime in the mid-to-late 1700s.

So I am going to present a theory for your consideration as to what might have caused this cataclysm of the Earth’s surface along the Earth’s Grid System in order to bring about the “New World Order.”

Prior to this deliberately-caused cataclysmic event, all of the infrastructure on the Earth was a perfectly-tuned and resonant scientific and musical instrument.

Everything worked together in harmony and balance to produce free-energy and abundance for all life everywhere – all the cathedrals, rail-lines, bridges, star forts, lighthouses, organs, bell-towers, and much, much more.

I believe that the circuit board of the Earth’s original free-energy grid system was deliberately blown-0ut, and because of my findings here in this part of the world, I believe directed frequency could have been used, and I am going to present a scenario for your consideration based on my research over the years as to how this could have happened.

Here’s how what I have learned about the Philadelphia Experiment and what I am calling the “Philadelphia Experiment Ley-line” could have caused the cataclysmic event that destroyed Circuit Board Earth and in the process, brought great change and upheaval to the surface of the Earth.

With regards to the elite enclaves seen throughout this post,  I believe the high-society elites prized and coveted most the destroyed places that were of high importance in the original civilization, either because of who lived there or what was there.

I am going to start first with the Philadelphia Experiment.

I have postulated for quite some time that a rip in the fabric of space-time caused by the Philadelphia Experiment allowed great evil in the form of parasitic non-human beings to incarnate in human form on the Earth, and subsequently created the conditions for the world we are living in today.  

Humanity has been at the mercy of a parasitic consciousness that has rigged the system to provide the non-stop flow of wealth for them and to keep us stuck in the negative energy of our lowest states of consciousness of fear and suffering that they need to survive.

Now, I’m going to take a look at the Philadelphia Experiment itself and see what we are told about that.

I mentioned previously in this post that Ong in the New Jersey Pine Barrens, geographically close to Philadelphia, is reputed to be an interdimensional gateway.

The strange Philadelphia Experiment was alleged to have taken place at the Philadelphia Navy Yard in the middle of World War II, the deadliest conflict in human history which started on September 1st in 1939, and ended on September 2nd in 1945 – exactly six years later. 

When I originally looked for information on the Philadelphia Experiment several years ago, the date I first encountered for it was the date of July 22nd of 1942.

The Philadelphia Experiment involved the USS Eldridge, a naval destroyer escort for merchant ships.

The ship’s generators were turned on in view of other merchant ships that were in the Navy Yard.

As the fields created by the generators built-up, a green haze formed around the ship.

When the green haze disappeared, so did the ship, rendered invisible to both radar and the naked eye.

It returned to view after 15-minutes.

Did the USS Eldridge just become invisible? 

Or did it go somewhere else? 

And if it went somewhere else, where might it have gone?

What was the real purpose of the Philadelphia Experiment?

What if the USS Eldridge travelled in time?

I first learned of the work of author and publisher, Peter Moon sometime around 2014.

I started reading some of the books he published because I was looking for information about the Moors, and was having a hard time finding it.

Peter has been involved in a lot of work on the Moors, the Philadelphia Experiment, Montauk Project, and time travel research. 

Peter also has a lot to say about Aleister Crowley in his books, and the dark, occulted nature of the timeline that we have been living on. 

In one of his books,“Synchronicity and the Seventh Seal,” Peter mentioned that he had a correspondence with Crowley’s son Amado, and that Amado related to him that on the day of the Philadelphia Experiment, which he gave as August 12th of 1943, Crowley had passed him as a child through the circular megalith at Men-an-Tol in Morvah, Cornwall, and that when he did this, it caused a line of rough energy to cross the ocean. 

This passage in the book also goes onto say further that while Crowley’s organization, known as the Ordo Templi Orientis, or OTO, an occult, fraternal and magical secret society, disputed this, others had no problems with his claim, and reported that during an eclipse ceremony on August 11th in 1998 at Men-an-Tol…

…an eclipse shadow line ran from Cairo, Egypt, to Montauk, Long Island, straight through Men-an-Tol.

Whatever date it took place on, both July 22nd and August 12th have annual significance in ancient cosmology.

Each year August 12th is the last day of the Lion’s Gate Portal, which begins on July 28th every year, and opens on 8/8…

…and each year, July 22nd coincides with the heliacal rising of Sirius before the sun.

Interesting to note that the Lion’s Gate Portal is symbolized by the Figure 8, which is also the infinity symbol, and it peaks on 8/8 every year.

Like I mentioned earlier in this post, I have postulated for several years that the years 1492 and 1942 are the boundary years of a new timeline called Rome.

There are 450-years between 1492 and 1942 that can be divided evenly into nine, 50-year-periods, and at the beginnings of each these 50-year-periods, much was happening in our historical narrative.

With 225-years on either side, 1717 is the midpoint year.

I believe a new 3D Time loop was created that somehow mirrors or involves the Figure 8, upon which a new history was superimposed on to the existing infrastructure on the Earth, and falsely attributed in the new historical narrative as we have seen in the elite enclaves through this post.

The mid-point year of 1717 was the year that the Premier Grand Lodge of England was founded in London, on June 24th, 1717.

It was the first western Freemason Grand Lodge.

The same lodge adopted the Anno Lucis that same year, in 1717, as the Masonic calendar.

The Anno Lucis Calendar adds 4,000-years to the Gregorian calendar.

It is my understanding that only those initiated into the highest degree of western Freemasonry know directly about the Moors.

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.

The New World’s Controllers stole the identity and legacy of the operative masons, representing Humanity at its highest-level of consciousness, and took us from the “Moorish Divine Movement of the World,” from Antiquity, with the eye on top of the pyramid signifying our pineal gland and our connection to the Creator, to it symbolizing “Big Brother,” and the control of the 13 Bloodline families.

At any rate, with regards to the alleged Aleister Crowley connection with the Philadelphia Experiment, I extended the Pine Barrens alignment that I found connecting the three pine barrens of New Jersey, Central Long Island, and Coastal Massachusetts.

Going in the northeast direction, the alignment connected to Morvah in Cornwall, the location of Men-an-Tol, and going in a southwest direction, I took it as far the bayous in Louisiana.

Along with at least one abandoned train found out in the middle of nowhere in the New Jersey Pine Barrens, there is at least one abandoned train in a bayou in Ascension Parish.

It is my belief that Aleister Crowley, known openly as the “Wickedest Man in the World,” was directly responsible for bringing us to “Crazy Town,” and brought in the parasitic entities that wouldn’t otherwise be here responsible for the world we live in today in the form of the wealthiest families that live in these elite enclaves.

I am sure that some of you will be aware of who this person is, but I would surmise that this name would be unfamiliar to most people.

Crowley was also known as “the Beast.”

He was highly involved in Freemasonry, and in ceremonial magical practices, including sex magic, and he was known to have been bisexual. 

He also assumed the title of Baphomet within the OTO, originally founded in the early-20^th-Century by German Occultists, and modelled after Freemasonry. 

Crowley described the Baphomet as a divine Androgyne, and the “Hieroglyph of Divine Perfection.” 

I believe this information is quite relevant to the bizarre gender agendas we see playing out in the world today. 

The image on the left popped up when I searched for “they want to turn us into them,” instead of us being in the image of God on the right.

There are several more points I would like to bring up with regards to the Crowley connection and the role of the Philadelphia Experiment in bringing us to the world we live in today being a real possibility, and not science fiction.

I had already collected a lot of puzzle pieces relating to what has taken place here with regards to the original civilization, what happened to it, who was involved in the reset of Earth’s history, and much of the how it was done.

But until I started looking into the sound elements, I did not have a conceptualization about how the time-space altering event of the Philadelphia Experiment could have also caused the destruction of the Earth’s surface, an event which I believe caused the sinking of the advanced civilization of Atlantis only hundreds of years ago at the most, not thousands of years ago as we have been taught.

As I mentioned previously, all three of the Pine Barren ecosystems of Coastal Massachusetts, Central Long Island, and New Jersey are on this alignment, as seen on the top left.

Provincetown at the tip of Cape Cod where the Pilgrim Monument is located, is also on this same alignment and all of Cape Cod, as well as the Elizabeth Islands, Martha’s Vineyard, and Nantucket, is part of the Southeastern Massachusetts Pine Barrens Alliance, on the right.

As I mentioned previously, the Pilgrim Monument is a bell-tower that is the tallest granite structure in the United States, and granite rings with a bell-like sound when it is struck.

If Crowley’s ritual ceremony at Men-an-Tol, whenever it took place, did in fact send a line of rough energy to cross the ocean towards Long Island, as claimed by his son Amado to Peter Moon as mentioned previously, it would have crossed through or near the Pilgrim Monument, with the energy thereby striking it, either directly or indirectly.

It is also very interesting to note that Provincetown is one of the most LGTBQ-inclusive places in the country, and has been for a long time.

As early as 1900, when an artists’ colony and experimental theater developed there, including drag shows in the 1940s.

In the process of doing this research, I learned about resonance and forced resonance.

Resonance occurs in oscillating systems when an external force with the same natural frequency causes a rise in amplitude, which results in a net rise of mechanical energy.

Resonance can occur in various systems, whether acoustical, electrical, or mechanical systems, and is desirable in their applications.

Resonance can also be detrimental, however, when it leads to excessive vibrations and structural failure.

Now what I think could have happened is that the rough line of energy caused by Crowley’s ritual ceremony on Cornwall either struck this bell-tower, or another bell-tower along the way that is underwater now, which caused a forced resonant frequency to go throughout the Earth’s entire grid system, either all at the same time, or in waves, like the aftershocks of earthquakes, and caused it to go haywire, leading to the destruction of the entire system and dramatically changing the face of the Earth.

I also consider the possibility that the manipulation of time-and-space involved in the Philadelphia Experiment could have also carried this forced resonant frequency back in time to create the cataclysmic event as opposed to something that happened in real-time.

Let’s use the example of Cape Cod to illustrate the presence of railroad lines and lighthouses, for example, right next to water.

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 Cape Cod.

While we have always been given the explanation that lighthouses were constructed to guide ships through rocky shoals and dangerous waters, and railroads were built around the same time period in the 19th-century, what I am seeing is that these were places that were in perfect resonance and that forced resonance throughout the grid system caused the system to go haywire, and the surrounding land sank, or turned into like swamps, bogs, barrens, or deserts and dunes.

There are several more points I would like to make with regards to the Crowley connection and the role of the Philadelphia Experiment in bringing us to the world we live in today being a real possibility.

One is about the deaf community on Martha’s Vineyard that was being studied in the 19th-century, which would have been very near the bell-tower in Providence.

They want us to believe it was from internal causes, but what if the cause of the deafness was from an external source, like an eardrum-shattering sound resulting from a forced resonant frequency going through a massive, previously-resonant system?

People who were deaf or deaf-mutes was a huge issue in the 19th-century that historical figures like Alexander Graham Bell were famous for working with.

For one example, Bell was known for training instructors of deaf-mute students.

He travelled to Boston in 1871 to teach instructors at the Boston School for Deaf-Mutes his “Visible Speech System.”

The oldest public day school for deaf and hard-of-hearing students, it later became known as the Horace Mann School for the Deaf.

Another point that I would like to make is that because Earth is a Free Will Zone, the Human Beings who live here have to give their consent to choose whether the follow the Light or the Dark, and they have to tell us what they are doing.

They can’t just come in and do whatever they want to, even though it might seem like that is what they have been doing.

One way they gain our consent is through literature, art, music, and things like predictive programming and soft disclosure in movies and television programs, and accomplish this by not telling us they are telling us.

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.

Predictive programming is defined as storylines, or even subtle images, that in retrospect seem to hint at events that actually end up happening in the real world.

Soft disclosure is defined as a gradual, understated release of controversial or secretive information to the public, like “Stranger Things.”

Does soft disclosure also relate to the 1980 movie “The Final Countdown,” in which a time-travelling naval vessel in the form of the USS Nimitz goes back in time to the day before the attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7th of 1941.

Did the subject matter come solely from someone’s fertile imagination, or are they disclosing something that has been hidden from us?

The other way they get our consent is by outright lies, deception and duplicity because if people knew the true agenda of these controllers, the majority of Humanity would never, ever accept what they are doing to us.

We 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.

How was this accomplished?

There were numerous ways, but one is private clubs like the Century Association mentioned previously in New York City, and/or other hand-picked elite groups of people who could meet secretly and make their plans for bringing the New World Order into existence.

Ever hear the George Carlin quote “It’s one big club, and you ain’t in it?” and wonder where that idea might have come from?

The self-appointed elites have continued doing the same thing to this day in their secretive meetings to plan their agendas for what they want the future to look like for Humanity and the World, and what they wanted doesn’t look good for us!

A small number of related, elitist family bloodlines, hidden in different nationalities and religions to carry out their plans for world domination, brought into existence a New World built upon the ruins of the Old World, and have stolen the legacy and identity of the original people and the true builders of all of the original infrastructure of the Earth; claimed their legacy as their own while at the same time, robbing us blind of resources, wealth, and energy without us knowing anything about it because they educated us in a new history with them written in to it, and at the same time removed everything about the Old World from our collective awareness.
