Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Early History of Michigan With Biographies of State Officers: Members of Congress, Judges and Legislators This compilation was commenced by the Semi-Centennial Commission, and has been completed under the direction of Governor Luce, as provided by a law of the session of 1887. Many biographies have been condensed more than was desirable, to bring the volume within reasonable size; others are brief because full data could not be obtained. The other features of the work are brief. Several hundred sketches have not been written, and a full list of these names will be found at the close of the work. Of most no record could be obtained. Of those living many failed to answer letters of inquiry. In other cases promised aid has not been given. Thanks are tendered to those who have taken time and trouble to give information. The compiler is also indebted to county histories, Farmers history of Detroit, and other works for information of value. Most of the Wayne county sketches were furnished by S. B. McCracken. The history is a portion of that written by the compiler for the Michigan census of 1884. The object of the work, to preserve in compact form the record of Statesmen, Judges, and Legislators of Michigan, will be more and more appreciated with the lapse of time. There are errors no doubt, but the information is from the best attainable sources. It is a just tribute by the people of Michigan to the memory of those who, under Territorial and State rule, have made Michigan one of the greatest and best States in the Union.
