Arranged by subject into binders, these clippings cover a number of topics relevant to the history of Grand Rapids, as well as the rest of Michigan and portions of neighboring states. While the subjects in the collection do vary, the majority of them are related to natural resources, environmental history, industry, and transportation in the region between 1830 and 2000. Also included in this collection are a number of photographs and maps. ^ Return to Table of Contents Biographical / Historical The author of numerous articles and several books, Dr. Carl Bajema is a historian and retired Grand Valley State University Professor of Biology. During his more than 40 years at GVSU, Bajema spent much of his time studying the environmental history of Michigan, concentrating on the natural and cultural history of the Grand River Valley. Utilizing microfilmed newspapers for his research, Bajema began to discover articles outside the scope of his original search, including articles on Civil War soldiers, African Americans, women, railroads, sports, and many other topics of historical significance. Arranging photocopies of these articles topically, Bajema would later donate them to Grand Rapids Public Library, with the newspaper clippings forming the Grand Rapids Public Library African American newspaper clippings collection (Coll. 290) and the Michigan soldiers reported in Civil War era newspapers (Coll. 244). The Carl Bajema Michigan History collection is the result of over 50 years of research performed by the donor. Comprised of Bajema's personal research copies of clippings, this collection covers a number - Page 3- Finding aid for the Carl Bajema Michigan History collection Collection 488 of Midwestern topics from 1830 to 2000 related to industry, transportation, natural resources, and the environment. ^ Return to Table of Contents Scope and Contents Materials in this collection include maps, photographs, and research volumes containing clippings and excerpts from various sources. Compiled by the donor, the 1571 volumes encompass a wide array of topics and form the bulk of the collection. Used throughout the volumes are abbreviations.

  • History of the Pere Marquette Railway

    History of the Pere Marquette Railway

    History of the Pere Marquette Railway Local History at the St. Thomas Public Library 1900: The Pere Marquette Railroad (PM) is formed by merging three small railroads in the United States: Chicago & West Michigan; Flint & Pere Marquette; and the Detroit, Grand Rapids & Western Railways. The PM is named after Père Jacques Marquette, the French Jesuit missionary who founded Michigan’s first European settlement, Sault St. Marie. 1901: Car ferry Pere Marquette 17 is placed in Lake Michigan service. The PM used car ferries on Lake Michigan to avoid the terminal and interchange delays in the area. Later, they were used on Lake Erie, the Detroit River, and in Port Huron. Car Ferry Pere Marquette 17 1902: Car ferry (first) Pere Marquette 18 is placed into Lake Michigan service. January 1903: PM acquires the Lake Erie & Detroit River Railway (LE&DRR), with main lines running from Walkerville, Windsor to St. Thomas, Ontario, as well as from Sarnia to Chatham and Erieau. This begins the Pere Marquette’s presence in Canada. 1904: The Pere Marquette secures running rights from Buffalo, New York and Niagara Falls, New York over the Canadian Southern railway lines to reach St. Thomas, where the PM’s main Canadian facilities will be located. 1905: Shop facilities are constructed in St. Thomas. December 1905: The first receivership begins, meaning that the company is controlled by others in order to make the best decision based on its finances, whether that is stabilizing or selling the company. The Pere Marquette has struggled financially for much of its operating life, and will continue to do so.

    JANUARY - FEBRUARY, 1978 Volume XXVII; Number 1 GREAT LAKES MARITIME INSTITUTE DOSSIN GREAT LAKES MUSEUM Belle Isle, Detroit, Michigan 48207 JAN/FEB, 1978 Page 2 MEMBERSHIP NOTES Welcome to 1978! A brand new year, a brand new slate, and a brand new outlook. It is going to be difficult to keep up with the pace set in 1977, but the continued success of the Institute demands that we not just meet, but surpass last year. At the close of the year our member­ ship had grown to approaching 1,50C. pretty good for an organization that had 97 members in 1959...but this year we’ll shoot for 1,600. It’ll take a lot of work, and you’ll have to help, but you always have, so we should make it. Telescope production last year produced a total of 244 pages, and in addition to that we produced the FITZGERALD book with 60 pages. For the uninitiated, this means your Editor typed, then Varityped 608 pages. This much production takes a lot of time, but we are going to do something about it, and we’ll have an announcement to make perhaps as early as the next issue. Not only will what we have planned result in far less work to getting Telescope out, but it will produce a far better product. Yes, 1977 was a good year...but 1978 looks better. MEETING NOTICES Regular membership meetings are scheduled for January 27, March 31, and May 19 (early to avoid Memorial Day weekend). All meetings will be at the Dossin Museum at 8:00 PM.
  • Railway History Chronology

    Railway History Chronology

    St. Thomas Railway History Chronology 1834 - The plan for the Great Western Railway (GWR) is conceived. An economic depression delays implementation for several years. 23 October 1847 - Sod-turning commences for the GWR. It becomes the largest system in Southwestern Ontario. 1850s - Surveying for railway lines is conducted in the St. Thomas area by different railroad companies. Among those reported in the St. Thomas Weekly Dispatch are routes to Simcoe and Amherstburg. 1854 - Citizens of St. Thomas are disappointed that the GWR decided to build through London from Windsor to Niagara Falls instead of St. Thomas. St. Thomas’s leading citizens had been campaigning for years for a railway. 1856 - The London and Port Stanley Railway (L&PS) is inaugurated. Though it was initially supported by St. Thomas, it turned out to be a financial disaster, as St. Thomas merchants lost customers to London. The city purchased shares in the company for $125,000.00 a piece and later sold them to the City of London, who owned the line, for $25,000.00 per share. 1868 - The Erie and Niagara Extension Railway is chartered and the following year it is renamed the Canada Southern Railway (CASO). Late 1860’s - William A. Thomson rallies support for the CASO run between Amherstburg and Fort Erie to connect to St. Thomas. He is successful. 1871 - The CASO Station is built in anticipation of the railroad’s arrival the following year. It still stands today. 1872- The GWR, afraid of losing traffic to the CASO, constructed a rival St. Thomas to Glencoe line, thereby affording St.

    Summary of Trout and Salmon Stocking in Lake Michigan 1976-2002

    Lake Michigan Committee Meeting Milwaukee, Wisconsin March 19-20, 2003 Summary of Trout and Salmon Stocking in Lake Michigan 1976-2002 Prepared by Jessica M. Richards and Charles R. Bronte U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service Fishery Resources Office 2661 Scott Tower Drive New Franken, WI 54229 This report summarizes trout and salmon stocking in Lake Michigan from 1976-2002. Stocking information was provided by the Department of Natural Resources of Illinois, Indiana, Michigan and Wisconsin, who stock Pacific salmon, brown trout, and splake, and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, who provides all lake trout for restoration purposes. These data should be considered provisional because not all agencies have officially verified the stocking numbers. With the exception of lake trout, no attempt was made to express stocking totals in yearling equivalents. Consequently, numbers for all life stages stocked for a given species were added together. To accurately examine trends in adult trout and salmon abundance in Lake Michigan, detailed information on hatchery programs, genetic strains, size at stocking, and stocking practices would have to be considered. Lakewide Trends: The number of trout and salmon stocked into Lake Michigan in 2002 totaled 12.0 million fish (Table 1), which was about 1.0 million fewer fish than last year. This level of stocking was 2.4 million less than the long term average of 14.5 million, and one of the lowest levels since 1977. Total stocking peaked at 17.3 million fish in 1984. Chinook Salmon: Chinook salmon stocking in Lake Michigan decreased to 3.3 million fish in 2002, which was about 1.0 million fewer fish than last year (Table 1).

The City of Manistee is a historical city branded the ‘Victorian Port City’ with a robust Historic District and Commission. The ornate victorian architectural infrastructure and mystique stems from the vigorous industry and subsequent wealth from the late 1800’s. Industry has since transitioned from lumber to manufacturing utilizing railroad transportation and shipping corridors as major modes of transportation. The Manistee City Municipal Marina is a City owned and operated property. This is located on the Harbor and within walking distance to sandy Lake Michigan beaches, playgrounds, restaurants, shops, grocery and hardware stores, theaters, free summer concerts, museum and the library. One of the best features of the Manistee Municipal Marina and Riverwalk is the fact it is handicap accessible, allowing everyone to enjoy it. There are ramps at both ends of the Riverwalk including at First Street Beach and next to the US-31 bridge. Three main bodies of water directly affect the City. The Western boundary of the City is Lake Michigan which the City owns and maintains approximately one mile of beach front for recreational use.

    Little Manistee River, Lake County

Surveyed August, 2002; August, 2003; and August, 2004 Mark A. Tonello Environment The Little Manistee River watershed drains 145,280 acres in Lake, Mason, and Manistee counties (Wicklund and Dean 1957; Figure 1). The Little Manistee River originates from several swamps in eastern Lake County about eight miles east of the Village of Luther. Below Luther Dam it flows northwest through most of Lake County, the very northeast tip of Mason County, and then southwestern Manistee County (Figure 2). Below the Luther Dam, the Little Manistee River is free- flowing for 55 miles before entering Manistee Lake in the Village of Stronach. Manistee Lake empties into Lake Michigan through a channel in the town of Manistee. The majority of the Little Manistee River watershed is forested with northern hardwoods and conifers. Soils consist mostly of deep, permeable sand, although there are a few areas with loamy soils and some with wet soils. Several large wetland complexes exist in the watershed; one of note is the Baylor Swamp from which both branches of Twin Creek flow. Much of the river between Luther and M-37 flows through lowland conifer and tag-alder swamp. Land use in the watershed is primarily forest and rural residential. Upstream of M-37, about half of the land through which the river flows is public, owned by the state of Michigan as part of the Pere Marquette State Forest.

    Proposal for Brookby Estate Aquinas College Grand Rapids MI 49503 6/14/2017 Submitted by Anna Kornoelje, Director of Ecological Services Kalamazoo Nature Center, 7000 N. Westnedge Ave., Kalamazoo MI 49009 [email protected] (928) 830-9526 Summary: The Brookby estate borders approximately 400 feet of stream frontage on Coldbrook Creek as it flows from Fisk Lake. The project area encompasses roughly 11,000 square feet and includes a broad swath of creekside habitat. Historically, Coldbrook Creek flowed from Fisk Lake through oak savanna and beech and sugar maple forests, and was the source of the water for the first pumped water supply in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Since then, much of the creek has been diverted underground and forgotten by most. Currently, Aquinas College Biology Club cleans trash from the creek twice each year, and there has been an awakened interest in exposing and restoring underground parts of the creek as they flow to the Grand River. Aquinas College owns a large part of the aboveground portion of the creek and could help to showcase sustainable stormwater practices and provide a demonstration site for streambank restoration. Management of this stream frontage currently involves mowing turf grass up to the stream when the ground is firm enough to support a riding mower. A stream bank restoration project will accomplish 4 major goals: ● Provide habitat for aquatic and terrestrial wildlife ● Reduce stormwater runoff ● Reduce mowing and other inputs needed to sustain turf grass ● Increase water quality Work Plan: We recommend planting in a wetland meadow that features native sedges and flowers selected to provide pollinator habitat for insects during the entire growing season.
