35TH Michigan 
VOLUNTEER Infantry SOUVENIR BOOK

Printed in 1898, I am so excited about this particular book. I had been doing some Nebraska items and I knew people were wanting me to do some Livingston County items when I came across this little book for the Michigan 35th Volunteer Infantry for the Spanish American War. Little did I realize that this was the very division that was stationed here in Livingston County at Island Lake. So I kill several birds with one stone, so to speak. I did take the webmaster's authority and re-alphabetize the lists of the privates in each company, either the author did not know the alphabet or I dunno, but they were pretty mixed up. Some neat photos! I also created an all name index, over 1400 names.

Miss Mary Bush's Autograph Book 

This is a neat little book brought to the library with the help of Linda Preece, who purchased it at an auction many years ago and wanted to share it with those interested in Livingston County, Michigan History. Printed in Howell in 1905 or earlier there are about 35 pages and numerous pictures and sadly several have no names, so if you happen to know who these unidentified people are I would certainly appreciate it. I made an index of those names included and while not many, it may help researchers.

& Township of Howell 

The pioneer history of the area by A. Riley Crittenden and an all name index by Pam Rietsch. Very interesting stories of the later settlers to the county and the Howell area.

1920 Howell High School
portraits

This neat photo was in the window of at the time one of the oldest stores in Howell, Garland Clothiers. As they were going out of business I convinced them to let me purchase it so I could scan it and put it on the site. Now a number of years later I was able to enhance the photos and take away a lot of blemishes and photo errors.

Michigan state SANATORIUM

aka

HOWELL TUBERCULAR SANATORIUM

I just redid this section of the Livingston County Historical & Genealogical Project and have added another great section to the MSS section. I recently got a photo album that was taken by I do not know whom and many of the images I do not know who they are. Where there was information on the page I added that to each photo.
