Community Profile The City of Midland, Michigan is the county seat of Midland County, Michigan and is part of the larger Saginaw-Midland-Bay City area. In the 1820s, Midland was established as a fur trading post of the American Fur Company. Here agents purchased furs from Ojibwa Indians. The Campau family of Detroit also operated an independent trading post at this location. If you visited Midland in the 1850s, you would have discovered riverbanks lined with Ojibwa Indian Wikkiups, round huts made of bent saplings, skins, and bark. You may have come across an Indian man hunting or fishing while others worked crops of corn, MLEAC ONSITE ASSESSMENT REPORT 3 MIDLAND POLICE DEPARTMENT squash, and pumpkins.

  • The Moran Family
    The Moran Family Copyright 1949 by Alved of Detroit, Incorporated ALL RIGHTS RESERVED Published by Alved of Detroit, Incorporated Manufactured in The United States of America THE FAMILY 200 Years in Detroit By J. BELL MORAN ALVED OF DETROIT, INCORPORATED 1949 THE AUTHOR -from a painting by Lawrence Powers Affectionate!y dedicated to my children Publisher's Note FoRMAL, RATHER than private, publication of this book is due to the insistence of Dr. Milo M. Quaife and ourselves. We felt it should be given wider distribution than was the author's intention when the project was begun. Mr. Moran wrote the book for his children and their children, as he so charmingly states in his Introduction. He refused to believe with us, that the mass of new material concerning Detroit's past captured ·into his narrative made the book an important addition to the Americana of Detroit and Michigan. We argued, too, that his boy"s,eye view of Detroit in transition from a City of Homes, in his eighteen--eighties, into Industry's Metropolis when the century turned is the kind of source record from which future historians will gather their information. ""And, equally important, it is splendid reading for today,.,., we said. ""But, I"m a novice at writing," quoth J. Bell Moran. "Thank the Angels for that, if that" s what you are," we murmured right back at him. That we won our way is evident. You have the book before you. After reading it, you will realize how generously the author has shared his Moran Family with you.

  • Freemasons and Speculators: Another Look at the Francophone Merchants of Detroit, 1796 to 1863
    FREEMASONS AND SPECULATORS: ANOTHER LOOK AT THE FRANCOPHONE MERCHANTS OF DETROIT, 1796 TO 1863 Jay Gitlin with S. Heath Ackley This conference, I think, marks a beginning—a serious attempt to reassess and acknowledge the French impact on the Detroit region. 1 Fifty years ago, in 1951, American Heritage magazine celebrated the 250th birthday of Detroit with a series of short historical articles. The usual cast of characters made their appearance: Cadillac, Pontiac—than quickly onward to Mayor Cobo and Walter Reuther. Raymond Miller, then Chairman of the Department of History at Wayne State, wrote a brief summary of Detroit's history. Not surprisingly, he described the first Detroit as having been born in 1701 and having died in 1805. The great fire of that year cleared the air—in his words, "the old Detroit was gone." The French village now began to give way to new buildings and institutions—Miller mentions the Masonic lodge as an example. New settlers from New York and New England swarmed in giving the city a vital infusion of energy and leadership. 2 Professor Melvin Holli, writing in the late 1970s, pursued such a theme in an article entitled "French Detroit: The Clash of Feudal and Yankee Values" and in his introductory essay to a documentary history of the city. Wrote Holli, "the French habitant culture [was not] able to withstand the invasion of the aggressive, literate, and 1 I want to thank the organizers of this conference for inviting me to be a part of this historical celebration. It is a great honor to be participating in a panel which includes such distinguished scholars as Professor Fernand Ouellet.

(Ph.D., History) The Emigrant Métis of Kansas: Rethinking the Pioneer Narrative Dissertation directed by Associate Professor Ralph Mann Under the U.S. government’s nineteenth century Indian removal policies, more than ten thousand Eastern Indians, mostly Algonquians from the Great Lakes region, relocated in the 1830s and 1840s beyond the western border of Missouri to what today is the state of Kansas. With them went a number of mixed-race people – the métis, who were born of the fur trade and the interracial unions that it spawned. This dissertation focuses on métis among one emigrant group, the Potawatomi, who removed to a reservation in Kansas that sat directly in the path of the great overland migration to Oregon and California.

Warner and Ida C. Brown Ann Arbor 1963 Composition and Lithoprinted by BRAUN -BRUM FIELD, Inc. Ann Arbor, Michigan Oil.. Ill* H INTRODUCTION The Michigan Historical Collections are a special library of The University of Michigan, con- taining the archives of the University and papers of individuals and organizations throughout Michi- gan. In the beginning there were two different projects. One, begun by Professor Lewis G. Vander Velde in 1934, was a program of collecting manuscript and printed materials relating to Michigan history, primarily for the use of graduate students in his seminar. The other program concerned the collecting and preservation of records of the University. To accomplish this purpose, President Alexander G. Ruthven appointed The Committee on University Archives, of which Professor Vander Velde was the secretary. Firmly convinced that a comprehen- sive collection of manuscripts dealing with the history of the University and the State would be use- ful for students and scholars, he began a vigorous campaign of letter writing and personal visits. Housed for a time in a room in the Clements Library, in 1938, needing more space, the papers were moved into the newly opened Rackham Building. In the same year the Regents established the Michigan Historical Collections and appointed Professor Vander Velde the Director.

Numerous individuals were especially helpful throughout my research and writing. Early on, Wendy Bellion’s recommendations for how to approach Great Lakes scholarship were enormously valuable. Ritchie Garrison’s suggestions and thoughts were integral to my early research into Fredeick E.
