Hello All, If you are interested in the situation at the Burton Historical Collection, then you might want to visit our web site at http://habitant.org/bhc. This site got a face lift this weekend. In case you are unaware of the situation, we found, using the Freedom of Information Act, that over $114,000 of the Burton Endowment Fund has been spent in ways that violate Mr. Burton's 1914 gift and 1921 endowment agreements with the Detroit Public Library. The full report on our findings can be seen at http://habitant.org/bhc/report.htm. If you want to join our struggle to improve the Burton Historical Collection, then please join our ListServ. Instructions for the ListServ can be found at http://habitant.org/listserv.htm. JP John P.

Rhonda In order to help with your request, a little more information is needed. I stop into the Mt. Clemens library periodically and might be able to help you. The library has some records for marriages in Macomb County. Other information necessary would include where were they married, i.e. city or township, are you able to pin point the dates more accurately, did they belong to a church, etc. The local catholic church, St. Peter's, has really good records, but without better information it is like looking for a needle in a haystack to search the whole county and year. Laura Nixon

Hi List, Does anyone have any marriage records? I can't seem to find any marriages of Macomb Co.,Michigan and since I live in Alabama they don't have very much on Michigan at the library. I sure hope someone can help me. I need the marriages of the following people: Leonard Stanton Eldred and Lillian Taggart married about 1901. Peter Eldred and Anna ? married about 1875. Leonard Eldred and Emily ? married about 1844. Benjamin D Taggart and Carrie L ? about 1882. Thanks so much. Rhonda Eldred

What is the best way to obtain a death certificate in MaComb County?

Dear people: I search for any information on Frederick BERKAU who died 14 Jan 1953 in St. Clair Shores, Macomb County. His wife Charlotte died after he did, but I have no dates for her. Both were apparently born in Germany. Does anyone have any obits or any information on these two individuals? Thank you. Charles Mudd

Can anyone tell me how I can obtain a copy of an obituary from the Mount Clemens Daily Leader from June 1925 Thanks in advance, Donna

Looking for BURLINGHAM in Mt. CLemens, Macomb Co, MI Looking for burial place of Gorton (Gordon) Spencer BURLINGHAM, d. April 02, 1847 I have found Sardis Burlingham, his uncle in Macomb. Thanks Karen

Hi all, The WebWide Surname Locator has just been vastly expanded to have indexed 70% more surnames than before. There are many Michigan connections in the search through thousands of surname pages online. If you go to Obituary Central at http://www.obitcentral.com and choose the WebWide Surname Locator option you can try your search. Hope this helps. Bill and Tina Cribbs HELP STOP BREAST CANCER!!!

I would like any information on Wilhelm and Wilhelmia Schwarz buried at St. Peters at 9th & Gratiot in 1890 and 1884 respectively. I believe they lived in Warren Township possible before 1875.

Sorry about the miss spelling in the last post but it should be KINGSBURY. Hi, Has anyone heard of Mt. Kingsbury in Macomb County ? I have an obituary from 1875 and it mentioned a daughter of Mt. Kingsbury, of Mt. Clemens. Joan

Hi Everyone, This isn't exactly Macomb County related, but you may find it useful. You may have noticed the Kodak picture machines around town that let you scan in a photo or use a 'Pictures on disk' CD to print out glossy photos in several sizes and formats. Well, today I called a Kodak technician and found out how to print out scans you made at home or got over the net from friends, without having to use a Kodak created CD. This came in very handy for me as I recently received a scan from a cousin of my great grandfather and now have a stack of beautiful copies to take to a reunion next weekend. OK, here is how to do it. On either a CDR or a 3.5 inch floppy, create a directory called Pictures The first letter must be capitalized. After that, the scan must be saved as a .JPG file and the name can have no more than 8 characters. For example, bobsface.jpg will work, but bob_face.jpg won't. That's it. Now just put the disk in the machine and follow the prompts. If you have any questions you can E-mail me at GTSport@aol.com Ciao Ya'll Joe Paonessa Researching Allor, Allard, Bethui, Betwee, and a bunch of others.

Sorry, folks! I mis-typed the URL for the article about the 1880 Macomb County Courthouse. Here's the correct address: http://www.libcoop.net/mountclemens/1880courthouse.htm Sorry for the mix-up. Debbie Larsen Mount Clemens Public Library

Dear Listers, Macomb County historians among you may be interested in a new article in the local history section of the Mount Clemens Public Library website. This page features a short history of the third Macomb County Courthouse, which was used from 1880 to 1930 and was razed to make way for the present Macomb County Building. http://www.libcoop.net/mtc/1880courthouse.htm Enjoy!
