  • SAND, SAWDUST and SAW LOGS Lumber Days in Ludington
    SAND, SAWDUST AND SAW LOGS Lumber Days in Ludington Frances C. Hanna ACKNOWLEDGMENTS – I am more than grateful to Ethelwyn Wing whose prodding suggestions and helpful criticism kept this story alive when my discouraged inclination was to let it die; to Effie Fortune Stanford and Charlotte Leonardson who courageously read through the typescript searching for errors (and found them); to Kathryn Stanford, city librarian, and Agnes MacLaren of the Daily News staff who made available to me old newspaper files; to Mabel Morse who brought me much valuable material from the Smith-Morse family collection; to Rose D. Hawley, curator of the Mason County Historical Society museum, who made available a great deal of classified material; to Charles E. Cartier whose knowledge and memory of lumbering in Mason County have proved highly valuable; to Dr. Charles W. Brayman of Cedar Springs whose loan of his mother's diaries preserved an outstanding record of pioneer days; to Miss Carrie Mears who loaned her father's diaries for publication and to Mrs. Allen Williams who edited them; to Jacob Lunde whose diorama has given a priceless record of lumbering days; and to the members of pioneer families whose reminiscences have been exceedingly helpful, among them: Flora Pierce Clark, David Gibbs, Karl Ashbacker and Ida Ashbacker Grant; Ben Beaudreau, Hans Rasmussen, James H. Sawyer of Chicago, Edith Dowland Hawkes, Bess LaBelle Sheldon, Daisy Marsh Reek, George Pomeroy, Maria Hansen Daub, Virgil Fitch, Florence Fitch, Mrs. Charles Dahn and those who have related reminiscences of their families in the meetings of the Mason County Historical Society from which sources I have drawn freely.

[1808-1834] The American Fur Company was the first organized company to influence the economic growth of Northwest Ottawa County, the entire Grand Valley, and other vast areas across the country. Started in Astoria, Oregon, the company was founded by John Jacob Astor in 1808 to compete with the Canadian fur companies. Astor’s operation in the Great Lakes was carried on under a subsidiary called the South West Company. The American Fur Company was reorganized in 1817, and in 1834 Astor left the business and new owners took over. The first trader Astor appointed to the Northwest Ottawa County area was a Frenchman, Joseph La Framboise, in 1808. When Joseph was killed the next year in a dispute with an Indian, his Indian wife, Madame La Framboise, took over his trading posts in the Grand River Valley. She was extraordinarily successful, and retired to Mackinac Island 12 years later, a wealthy woman. Astor then hired Rix Robinson to manage the 21 trading posts in the area, including the one in Grand Haven and another at the junction of Crockery Creek and the Grand River.
