Book excerpt: In the fall of 1844, an entrepreneur named Alexander McLeod made his way up a shallow river in far northern Michigan with the idea of building a lumber mill. He discovered that the region around the Cheboygan River would be a suitable location. McLeod built a small cabin for himself, and the following spring the first permanent settler, Jacob Sammons, arrived. McLeods employees and other businessmen followed with their families. The settlers improved the river, and Cheboygan became a booming lumber town. Along with the growth came grocers, bankers, saloonkeepers, laborers, doctors, and other pioneers. Colorful characters and beautiful buildings graced Cheboygans bustling downtown. When the lumber ran out and the mills closed, residents sought a new identity. Tourism and industry led the way, and Cheboygan is enjoyed throughout the year. This collection of images of Cheboygan and the surrounding area highlights its birth and growth from boomtown to vacation destination.

Download or read book Legendary Locals of Cheboygan written by Matthew J. Friday and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2015 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Founded as a lumbering town in the mid-1800s, Cheboygan has transformed over the years to be something much less simplistic and much more dynamic; so, too, have its people. While some of Cheboygans residents played important roles in business or commerce, others made their mark through philanthropic work, service to the community, or just by their demeanor. History is as much about people as it is about events people like Gordon Scoop Turner, who came to Cheboygan for a few months but ended up staying for a lifetime. There are businessmen like Millard D. Olds, who became one of the most successful lumbermen at a time when others were leaving town, and George M. Humphrey, the 55th treasurer of the United States. An eye towards the community has also made some residents legendary, such as Joyce and Quincy Leslie. And, of course, there are those whose history is shrouded in controversy, including Sheriff Fred Ming, under whose authority a Native American village was burned to the ground. Whatever their story, these locals have contributed to the character and history of Cheboygan."-- From back cover.

Download or read book Among the Sturdy Pioneers written by Matthew J. Friday and published by Trafford. This book was released on 2006 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Among the Sturdy Pioneers explains the development of a boom town in northern Michigan at the turn of the twentieth century. Settled as a lumbering community, Cheboygan quickly grew to become one of the most important lumber manufacturing cities in the state. By looking at how it was settled and by whom, the book explains just how a lumber town is not only settled, but also how that settlement gradually becomes more permanent. From boom town to stable city, Among the Sturdy Pioneers illustrates how just a few entrepreneurial lumber barons helped build a town. The book also goes into considerable detail looking at the lives of these lumber kings, how they made their fortunes and why they chose to come up north. More than just a story about lumber, though, there are plenty of additional facets of Cheboygan's early life that are covered. From other industries in town to strange stories and bizarre incidents, the book is not an industrial history per se, but a general history of the community as well. Shipping, auto manufacturing, railroads, crime and punishment, and even a brush with a rare disease add to the breadth of the work. Cheboygan began to change dramatically as the lumber industry waned, and these events and how the community reacted are also thoroughly covered. As the town struggled to find itself after the decline of the industry, the boom town was in danger of a real bust. However, through its fortunate geographical location and aesthetic beauty, it became a remarkable year-round destination for travelers the world over.

Download or read book The Diary of Bishop Frederic Baraga written by N. Daniel Rupp and published by Wayne State University Press. This book was released on 2001 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An introductory biography of Baraga, lengthy passages from his letters, vignettes about persons in the text and a comprehensive bibliography yield an in-depth portrait of mid-nineteenth century life, especially in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. It was 1831 when Father Frederic Baraga arrived in this country from his native Slovenia. He had come to bring Christianity to the Ottawa and Chippewa Indians of the Old Northwest. Twenty years later, when Baraga first heard that he might be named Bishop of Upper Michigan, he began to keep a "daybook" or diary. Intended as a private document for his own use and reference, the diary contains a log of Baraga's missionary journeys, his observations about daily weather conditions, ship movement on the lakes, and a running account of the various works he accomplished. Between the lines of the usually concise entries, however, there are clues to Baraga's zeal, dedication, and generosity. An introductory biography of Baraga, lengthy passages from his letters, vignettes about persons in the text and a comprehensive bibliography yield an in-depth portrait of mid-nineteenth century life, especially in Michigan's Upper Peninsula.
