The ledges had become a graveyard for ships, resulting in great loss to human life and cargo-a deterrent to European colonization efforts. Ship captains and merchants petitioned the colonial government for a lighthouse to be erected on Little Brewster Island as a way of safe passage to the inner harbor.
