In honor of National Storytelling Week (along with the fact that this year is the 250th anniversary of the United States AND Michigan became a state in the month of January! whew!) the Cass River Genealogy Society invited its members to share stories of their first Michigan ancestors! Have fun reading through the stories gathered here- maybe it will inspire you to research your own genealogy!
