Abstract:
Erasmus Midgett’s mission for saving lives in Ocracoke ended in 1910, but in a sense endured far beyond his time as an employee for Life-Saving Service. He laid the foundation for a legacy that has lasted over a century, involved over two hundred members of his family, and extended into their service for Life-Saving Services’ successor, the Coast Guard.
