A leisurely Look at Michigan’s stories and traditions from yesterday to yesteryear.
The Archives of Michigan has close to 1,400 Civil War photographs in its collections. The majority of the images are carte de visite’s of soldiers taking during their time of service during Civil War (1861-1865). Also included are reproductions of sheet music, broadsides and some group photographs all dating from the 1860s. Information includes soldier’s name and description of service.
"If you seek a pleasant peninsula, look about you." The Michigan state motto served as the inspiration for this blog. If you look, you will find stories, photos and more to connect you to this great state and its wonderful history.
