Book Description
Excerpt from The County and City of Cork Remembrancer, or Annals of the County and City of Cork The design of the following work was suggested by former publications of a similar character; in 1783 Mr. J.fitzgerald published the first Cork Remembrancer in 1792, Mr. A. Edwards published the second the present attempt is the third. 'v e believe our city has furnished the only examples of such compilations. Indeed our predecessors in this path, accompanied their local anecdotes with a general chronicle of the world, which, however, we have rejected from our plan, as being rather inappropriate. Our book is therefore, for the most part, a mere collection of tri ing incidents, which occurred in the city and county of Cork 3 but frivolous as the facts detailed, may appear to many, they often present more vivid images of other times, than graver details 5 similar trifles of our own time find their places in the newspapers, and are allowed to be, at least, amusing and although those of other times lose part of their attractions by their remoteness, they yet derive from the same source, an interest of another kind, and may well claim a compiler's labour.

Vassar

Pages : 132
Book Description
When a person looks around the city of Vassar, it is hard to imagine that this was once a vast cork pine forest in the Saginaw Valley. Townsend North, along with his brothers-in-law James and Newton Edmunds, came to settle the land in 1849. Vassar quickly went from a small lumber camp to a fast-growing village and would be known for setting many records for Tuscola County, including being the first county seat. Vassar also had the first newspaper, the first house of worship, the first schools, and so much more. In later years, it would also become the only city in the county. Vassar became a lot like Mayberry, in the fact that everyone knows everyone and there is a small town atmosphere that draws people to town. This became well known in 1949, when Vassar celebrated its 100th birthday. To this day, Vassar is still known for its small-town charm.
