Question: Who was the Union General who helped design the Jupiter Inlet Light?
Context: The Battle of Jupiter Inlet occurred on January 15, 1838, between the Seminole Indians - Seminole Negro and the United States Navy.  This was the first of a series of battles led by the US Navy in the area, also referred to as the First Battle of Loxahatchee.  The battle started when Lt. Levin Powell led an expedition of 200 soldiers, sailors and marines, down the east coast of Florida.  The Navy spotted a trail alongside the Jupiter Inlet, and seventy-five men were landed to find the Seminole camp nearby.  The camp was led by Sam Jones, Ar-pi-uck-i, the spiritual medicine and war chief of the Miccosukee and Seminole people during the war.  The officers that advanced on the camp were outnumbered and ambushed.  After a long fight, the US retreated with five men killed in action and about twenty others wounded.  Ltn.  Powell was one of those killed in battle. The National Weather Service Miami, Florida is a local weather forecast office of the National Weather Service (NWS) that serves six counties in South Florida – Broward, Collier, Glades, Hendry, Miami-Dade, and Palm Beach – as well as the mainland portion of Monroe County.  This office was originally established in 1879 as a Signal Corps station near the Jupiter Inlet Light, before becoming a Weather Bureau Office (WBO) in 1891.  The WBO at Jupiter was moved southward to Miami, due to the city's rapidly growing population.  In 1930, a separate Weather Bureau Airport Station (WBAS) was established at the Miami Municipal Airport.  The WBAS was later moved to the Miami International Airport in 1942 and remained there until ceasing operations in 1975. The Jupiter Inlet Historic and Archeological Site is an archaeological site in Jupiter, Florida.  It is located off A1A in the area of DuBois Park.  An ancient shell midden built by the Jaega people, it was the site of the village of Hobe (or Jobe in Spanish orthography), which was later conflated with Jove and inspired the name of the town of Jupiter, Florida, where it is located.  On November 5, 1985, it was added to the U.S. National Register of Historic Places. The Loxahatchee River (Seminole for "river of turtles") is a 7.6 mile river near the southeast coast of Florida.  It is a National Wild and Scenic River, one of only two in the state, and received its federal designation on May 17, 1985.  The source of the Loxahatchee River is in Riverbend Park on the south side of Indiantown Road about 1.5 miles west of I-95 and Florida's Turnpike in Jupiter, Florida.  The Loxahatchee River flows out of the Jupiter Inlet and into the Atlantic Ocean.  This river was the inspiration for Florida film producer Elam Stoltzfus' 2005 project “Our Signature: the Wild and Scenic Loxahatchee River,” a film done in conjunction with the Loxahatchee River Preservation Initiative. Point Adams Light was a lighthouse near the mouth of the Columbia River on the Oregon Coast of the United States.  The lighthouse was designed by Paul J. Pelz, who also designed Point Adams's sister stations, Point Fermin Light in San Pedro CA, East Brother Island Light in Richmond, California, Mare Island Light, in Carquinez Strait, California (demolished in the 1930s), Point Hueneme Light in California (replaced in 1940), and Hereford Inlet Light in North Wildwood, New Jersey, all in essentially the same style.  It operated from February 15, 1875 until 1899, when it became obsolete by the extension of the south jetty and the establishment of the Lightship "Columbia" in 1892.  The lighthouse was considered a fire hazard and demolished in 1912. The narrow gauge Jupiter and Lake Worth Railway was a 7.5 mi connection between the Jacksonville, Tampa and Key West Railway system.  It connected Lake Worth at Juno, Florida to Jupiter Inlet at Jupiter, Florida.  With intermediate stops at Venus and Mars, the railroad was often called the Celestial Railroad. The Ponce de Leon Inlet is a natural opening in the barrier islands in central Florida that connects the north end of the Mosquito Lagoon and the south end of the Halifax River to the Atlantic Ocean.  The inlet originally was named Mosquito Inlet.  In 1926 the Florida Legislature changed the name from Mosquito Inlet to Ponce de Leon Inlet.  There was precedent for the change.  Mosquito County had long before become Orange County, and the Mosquito River had become the Halifax River.  Only the Mosquito Lagoon has kept its old name.  It is the site of the town of Ponce Inlet, Florida and the Ponce de Leon Inlet Light.  The inlet is maintained by the Ponce de Leon Inlet & Port District, a Division of the Volusia County, Florida government. The Ponce de Leon Inlet Light is a lighthouse and museum located at Ponce de León Inlet in Central Florida.  At 175 ft in height, it is the tallest lighthouse in the state and one of the tallest in the United States (the Cape Hatteras Light in North Carolina is taller at 207 ft ).  It is located between St. Augustine Light and Cape Canaveral Light.  Restored by the Ponce de Leon Inlet Lighthouse Preservation Association, the lighthouse became a National Historic Landmark in 1998. George Gordon Meade (December 31, 1815 – November 6, 1872) was a career United States Army officer and civil engineer involved in the coastal construction of several lighthouses.  He fought with distinction in the Second Seminole War and the Mexican–American War.  During the American Civil War he served as a Union general, rising from command of a brigade to command of the Army of the Potomac.  He is best known for defeating Confederate General Robert E. Lee at the Battle of Gettysburg in 1863. The Jupiter Inlet Light is located in Jupiter, Florida, on the north side of the Jupiter Inlet.  The site for the lighthouse was chosen in 1853.  It is located between Cape Canaveral Light and Hillsboro Inlet Light.  The lighthouse was designed by then Lieutenant George G. Meade of the Bureau of Topographical Engineers.  Meade's design was subsequently modified by Lieutenant William Raynolds.  The Jupiter Inlet silted shut in 1854, forcing all building supplies to be shipped in light boats down the Indian River.  Work was interrupted from 1856 to 1858 by the Third Seminole War.  The lighthouse was completed under the supervision of Captain Edward A. Yorke in 1860 at a cost of more than $60,000.
