This land - where the beautiful
AuSable River flows into Lake Huron - is alive with the shadows
and echoes of those who have passed this way before us. We who
follow can but watch and listen. And remember. Due to
the near-total destruction of the twin towns by the Fire of 1911,
and the fact that hardly any pre-1950 local newspapers have been
preserved, it is urgent that we find, save and exhibit as much
of our local history as still exists. We gratefully welcome any
donations of local artifacts, memories, or etc.
Museum Exhibits Include: Indian artifacts,
commercial fishing, shipping, ship wrecks, logging, Paul Bunyan
legend, railroads, lighthouses, the AuSable River and its dams,
the fire of 1911, Wurtsmith Air Force Base, etc...
Gift Shop Features: Books on local history, 1880 birds eye map, history
video, photos, mugs, shirts, gifts, coloring book, various old
time & musical toys, etc...
