Book excerpt: Saginaw is the hub of mid-Michigan and had its beginnings in the 1820s with the establishment of Fort Saginaw near present-day Court and Hamilton Streets. Owing to the lumber industry, two separate cities developed along the banks of the Saginaw River: the west side city of Saginaw and East Saginaw. Intense rivalry resulted in rapid population growth and many civic improvements for both. Consolidation of the Saginaws occurred in 1890, and continued prosperity followed the ebb and flow of the lumber and automotive industries.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Industries of the Saginaws: Historical, Descriptive and Statistical The story of American progress presents a record as unique as it is interesting. No other chapter of history approaches it in the rapidity with which the wild and waste places have been made to fructify under the hand of industry, and the wilderness to evolve into a populous and civilized community. No other narrative more strongly illustrates the truism that it is events, and not years, that make history. At the opening of the Nineteenth century Michigan, with the exception of a sparse settlement at Detroit, and an insignificant post at Mackinaw, was useless to humanity, except as it afforded hunting grounds for fierce and nomadic Indian tribes. The Saginaw Valley was a dense forest, which had as yet been visited by no white man, save an occasional zealous missionary, who ventured in the cause of Christianity where others, actuated by self-interest, feared to follow. It is not the purpose of this work to attempt any extended or minute narrative of the past, but to present in this introductory chapter only such pertinent points from the history of the Saginaws as tend to show the steps in their progress from the original forest to their present advanced position as a center of trade and industry. The' review will necessarily be brief, and is designed only to contain such facts, concisely told, as are necessary to illustrate the story of the industrial development of the Saginaws from the first beginnings in civilization to the busy activity of the present. Indian tradition affords the information that the Chippewas, who inhabited this region as the immediate predecessors of its white inhabitants, obtained it in a battle with a tribe known as the Sauks some time in the sixteenth century: while ethnalogical researches even go beyond that event to an Aztec population, antedating the Sauks, and still farther to the mound builders.

Download or read book Saginaw in Vintage Postcards written by Roberta Morey and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2004-08-11 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Because of its excellent river system, Saginaw developed from an Indian village into a bustling lumber town. In its early days, investors came from eastern cities and became wealthy lumber barons. They built beautiful mansions, hotels, and public buildings while they also supported civic projects. Before consolidating, there were two cities: East Saginaw and Saginaw City, separated by the Saginaw River. Many German societies, schools, and churches were organized in the area, due to the large number of residents with a German heritage. The early residents survived fires, floods, and the end of the lumber boom. Other industries developed and the city continued to grow. The rare postcards that appear in this book depict many historical buildings, the two separate cities, the German influence, and the philanthropy of the lumber barons. Join author Roberta Morey on a journey through Saginaw's rich industrial and cultural history.
