Michigan Port Huron, Historic Site: Fort Gratiot Light

This lighthouse, Oldest in Michigan, was built in 1829 to replace a tower destroyed by a storm. Lucius Lyon,
the builder, was Deputy Surveyor General of the Northwest Territory and later a United States senator from Michigan. In the 1860s workers extended the tower to its present height of 86 feet. The light, automated in 1933, continues to guide shipping on Lake Huron into the narrow and swift flowing
St. Clair River.

Michigan Marshall Historical Site: Pioneer School

In 1833 Marshall's first village officials were elected at a meeting held in the pioneer schoolhouse. The building served the community as a school until 1843. William Venn built a house on this property in the early 1860s and moved the old schoolhouse to the rear of the the lot. There it was used as a barn. The schoolhouse was demolished in 1871 when the First Presbyterian Church purchased the property for a manse. The church sold the property in 1880 and repurchased it in 1914.

On this site, once owned by Christian Buhl- alderman, city mayor, police commissioner and banker--stands the former office of the Detroit Copper & Brass Rolling Mills Company. Buhl was the

Michigan Trenton Historical Site: Historical Shipyard Site.
With the launching of A.D. Patchin and Alvin Clark
shipbuilding began here in 1846. Early builders were:
John Keating, Evaline Bates. Burton Goodsill, James Abbott and Hiram Baker. Trenton became a ship center when Arthur Edwards established the D. & C. Steamboat Co and Alvin Turner arrived from Ohio City. During this period the finest and largest schooners steamboats were sent forth to sail the Great Lakes Railroads and iron-hulled ship technology brought about the demise of the Turner Shipyard. This site operated for a time as the River Bark Stave Co. and later by the in D. H. Burell Co.
The original buildings burned in the early 1900’s. Boat building activities resumed in 1919 when the Purdy Boat Co. located here. The tradition was carried
on by the Davis Boat Co. and finally by the Liggett Boat Works. These buildings were demolished in 1968 bringing to a close a rich and forgotten chapter in Trenton history.

Michigan Wyandotte Historical Site: Michigan Wyandot and Monguagon

The Michigan Wyandot who fought at Monguagon were neutral at the beginning of the War of 1812. In
the years leading up to the war their villages at
Monguagon and Brownstown had not joined the loose coalition led by the Shawnee brothers Tenskwatawa (The Prophet) and Tecumseh in its fight against American lands. However, in early August
1812, Tecumseh and Roundhead, His leading Wyandot supporter, convinced the Michigan Wyandot and their head chief, Walk-In-The-Water to join them and the British. The Anglo-Native alliance
was repulsed, but the Wyandot villages continued to block Hull’s Trace, the American’s supply route from Ohio to Fort Depot.
