Where was the first lighthouse on the North American continent built in 1716?

The first lighthouse on the North American continent was built in 1716 on the island of Little Brewster, located off the coast of Boston, Massachusetts, U.S.1

While the Cape Henry Lighthouse in Virginia is often noted for its historical significance, it was the first lighthouse structure erected in the United States under the federal government, built between 1791 and 1792, rather than the first on the continent.2
