Silver Creek and Cattaraugus Creek

I was on a trip through western New York State on my way to a lighthouse meeting in Buffalo. Being a lighthouse enthusiast, I was driving along the road nearest to the edge of Lake Erie and not on the New York Thruway. As I traveled east I came to the tiny town of Silver Creek and seeing the name triggered a thought that I had once seen reference to there being a lighthouse or beacon located here sometime back in the early 1800s.
