  • Boats Built at Toledo, Ohio Including Monroe, Michigan
    Boats Built at Toledo, Ohio Including Monroe, Michigan A Comprehensive Listing of the Vessels Built from Schooners to Steamers from 1810 to the Present Written and Compiled by: Matthew J. Weisman and Paula Shorf National Museum of the Great Lakes 1701 Front Street, Toledo, Ohio 43605 Welcome, The Great Lakes are not only the most important natural resource in the world, they represent thousands of years of history. The lakes have dramatically impacted the social, economic and political history of the North American continent. The National Museum of the Great Lakes tells the incredible story of our Great Lakes through over 300 genuine artifacts, a number of powerful audiovisual displays and 40 hands-on interactive exhibits including the Col. James M. Schoonmaker Museum Ship. The tales told here span hundreds of years, from the fur traders in the 1600s to the Underground Railroad operators in the 1800s, the rum runners in the 1900s, to the sailors on the thousand-footers sailing today. The theme of the Great Lakes as a Powerful Force runs through all of these stories and will create a lifelong interest in all who visit from 5 – 95 years old. Toledo and the surrounding area are full of early American History and great places to visit. The Battle of Fallen Timbers, the War of 1812, Fort Meigs and the early shipbuilding cities of Perrysburg and Maumee promise to please those who have an interest in local history. A visit to the world-class Toledo Art Museum, the fine dining along the river, with brew pubs and the world famous Tony Packo’s restaurant, will make for a great visit.

  • Along the Mississippi from Rice Lake to Boom Lake
    Along the Mississippi from Rice Lake to Boom Lake by Ann M. Nelson August 9, 2018 Introduction Throughout the early days of Brainerd, the Mississippi river served as the highway for the millions and millions of logs driven to the sawmills of Minneapolis prior to the establishment of large sawmills on the river in Brainerd. The river acted as a storage area for the logs that were to remain in the city to be milled in its sawmills. Steamboats plied the river carrying equipment and other supplies to the logging camps of the northern woods as well as providing pleasure excursions for the citizens of Brainerd before the dam was completed in 1888. Much of the water used in homes and businesses was provided by the river until 1920 when the city completed the water tower and the system of wells which finally provided clean, uncontaminated water to Brainerd citizens. Over the years, numerous bridges were built over the Mississippi at Brainerd, ferries carried passengers across the river; parks, as well as sawmills, breweries and hospitals were located along its banks. Even Evergreen Cemetery is located near the river. For years, property within the city of Brainerd located near the river was considered the most undesirable and this is where the “red light” district was located. Steamboats The early steamers on the Mississippi burned wood and were used mostly to haul men and supplies to the lumber camps that dotted the shores of the river. Although not as profitable, steamboat owners also operated excursions and hauled farm produce from and supplies to the few farms that had been established near the river.

He was known by the name of Juan de Fuca, and the name was subsequently given to a portion of the waters he discovered. As far as known he made no official report of his discoveries, but he told navi­ gators, and from these men has descended to us the knowledge thereof. Richard Hakluyt, in 1600, gave some account of Fuca and his voyages and discoveries. Michael Locke, in 1625, pub­ lished the following statement in England. "I met in Venice in 1596 an old Greek mariner called Juan de Fuca, but whose real name was Apostolus Valerianus, who detailed that in 1592 he sailed in a small caravel from Mexico in the service of Spain along the coast of Mexico and California, until he came to the latitude of 47 degrees, and there finding the land trended north and northeast, and also east and south east, with a broad inlet of seas between 47 and 48 degrees of latitude, he entered therein, sailing more than twenty days, and at the entrance of said strait there is on the northwest coast thereto a great headland or island, with an exceeding high pinacle or spiral rock, like a pillar thereon." Fuca also reported find­ ing various inlets and divers islands; describes the natives as dressed in skins, and as being so hostile that he was glad to get away.

    REVIEWS OF BOOKS The Voyageur. By GRACE LEE NUTE. (New York and London, D. Appleton and Company, 1931. viii, 289 p. Illustrations. $3.00.) What a valuable and stirring contribution to history we have here! Reading Miss Nute's book I found myself not only turning pages eagerly, to come quickly to what was ahead; but turning time back­ ward. Pictures flashed out of memory and added their illumination to Carl W. Bertsch's satisfying illustrations. It Is springtime, a northern spring colored with red ground wil­ lows. At the junction of two clouded and turbulent rivers a fur post stands on the high bank. A fur fleet is swinging down on the treacherous flow of the major stream. The vessels, heaped high with pelts, are bateaux and pirogues —" mon canot" could not carry such a vast load of peltry, and it might have short shrift on this furious current. The crew is a mixed one of Indians, — Cree and Dene chiefly, — hois hrules, and French-Canadians. Among the " Canucks " are men who believe that their ancestors paddled west­ ward with the first trader-explorers of New France. They are stal­ wart sons of a long line of bold watermen. The rivers of " Ke-bec," the perilous waves of the Great Lakes, even Mackenzie — invaded by steamboats — have turned faithless under the influences of time and civilization, and the voyageur seeks his love now on Parsnip and Peace, Skeena, Nechaco, and Fraser. And there are stretches of these rivers, at least, where he does still skim the tide in the light canoe, which is the gift the Indian Magi gave to strangers from Normandy three centuries ago to be the cradle of a new people.
