In the 1870s, Muskegon was known as the Lumber Queen of the World. I also believe many doctors owned houses later on in that area. Also, many of the businessmen of the community probably owned property there. Yes, there was an address change around 1924-25 and all Muskegon streets changed addresses. Also, many of the old streets names changed over the years. Jim McElfish Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
