"Telegraph Hill" is a view from the ruins of Fort Independence/Fort Revere, Telegraph Hill, Hull Village. Boston Light is near the center of the picture, Graves Light and the North Shore in the background. I took this picture on August 30, 2000, and was standing on or near land that had been owned by Thomas (2) in 1657. He, John Loring and Nicholas Baker had three adjoining lots there in that period. Hull Village Cemetery occupies much of the eastern slope of the hill. Thomas's home was probably located on another lot, on the southern edge of the hill, off what is now Spring Road, facing Hingham Bay.
