These melodic names that enrich our appreciation for the romantic past of our state record the culture and history of both the American Indian and the white settler. Most of the Indian names borne by Michigan's cities, counties, lakes, and rivers are those of Indian tribes and individuals.

  • ISBN : 9780814318386
  • Pages : 718 pages

Download or read book Michigan Place Names written by Walter Romig and published by Wayne State University Press. This book was released on 1986 with total page 718 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Aabec in Antrim County to Zutphen in Ottawa County, from Hell to Hooker, Michigan Place Names is a compendium of information on the origins of the state's geographical names. With alphabetically arranged thumb-nail sketches, Walter Romig introduces readers to a host of colorful personalities and episodes which have achieved notoriety, though sometimes shortlived, by devising or lending their names to the state's settlements. Romig spent more than ten years researching and documenting the entries to which he added an extensive bibliography of sources and an index of the personal names used in the text. For the curious, the librarian, the genealogist, or the historian, his book is an indispensable resource. Michigan Place Names is another "Michigan classic" reissued as a Great Lakes Book.

Book Ludington Car Ferries

    Book Details:
  • Author : David K. Petersen
  • Publisher : Arcadia Publishing
  • Release : 2010
  • ISBN : 9780738560113
  • Pages : 132 pages

Download or read book Ludington Car Ferries written by David K. Petersen and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2010 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Not-a-pe-ka-gon was the Native American name given to the Ludington area and translates as "heads on sticks." The name refers to a battle between the Ottawa and Mascouten Indians in the 17th century that raged along the river toward Lake Michigan. The heads of the defeated Mascoutens were placed on sticks as a warning to all. Later a bluff overlooking the lake and river was the site of the 1675 death of Fr. Jacques Marquette, a Jesuit missionary and explorer. When the first settlers of European descent arrived, they gave the name of Pere Marquette to their village, lake, and river in honor of the fallen missionary. Eventually renamed after lumber baron James Ludington, the community became a bustling maritime port and the home of the largest car ferry fleet in the world. David K. Petersen is a local historian and collector of historical images. He has published two pictorial books of the Pere Marquette car ferries based on the photography of Erhardt Peters and currently writes a weekly history column for the Ludington Daily News. Petersen has selected many unique images from his collection to illustrate the maritime history of Ludington from its humble beginnings to an important port of call. The Images of America series celebrates the history of neighborhoods, towns, and cities across the country. Using archival photographs, each title presents the distinctive stories from the past that shape the character of the community today. Arcadia is proud to play a part in the preservation of local heritage, making history available to all.
