Book-History of St. Clair County, Mich.

I have access to a large, old, leather-bound book (695 pages) entitled "Biographical Memoirs of Saint Clair County, Michigan." The title page reads as follows:
BIOGRAPHICAL MEMOIRS

OF

ST. CLAIR COUNTY, MICHIGAN

TO WHICH IS APENDED

A COMPREHENSIVE COMPENDIUM OF NATIONAL BIOGRAPHY - MEMOIRS OF EMINENT MEN AND WOMEN IN THE UNITED STATES, WHOSE DEEDS OF VALOR OR WORKS OF MERIT HAVE MADE THEIR NAMES IMPERISHABLE.

-----------------------

ILLUSTRATED

-----------------------

EMBELLISHED WITH PORTRAITS OF MANY NATIONAL CHARACTERS AND WELL-KNOWN RESIDENTS OF ST. CLAIR COUNTY, MICHIGAN.

LOGANSPORT, INDIANA:

B. F. BOWEN, PUBLISHER.

1903.

I am willing to do look-ups for people as my timing permits. Please E-MAIL ME if you are interested in a look-up. I will not be checking this board very frequently to see if there are responses, therefore e-mailing me will be the most efficient method.

The book is broken down into two parts. Part I is entitled “Compendium of National Biography” and contains biographies of celebrated Americans. These individuals, most frequently, have nothing at all to do with St. Clair County, Michigan and I have therefore not listed their surnames among this listing. Part I is merely an encyclopedia of sorts.

Part II is entitled “Compendium of Local Biography” and contains biographies, pictures, etchings, etc. of notable individuals of St. Clair County, Michigan prior to 1903, the date of publishing. The surnames of the individuals who appear in Part II are as follows:

The surnames contained in Part II are as follows:

When requesting a look-up, please let me know WHICH surname you are seeking information on and I will look up and tell you the first names of the individuals in the book who correspond with those surnames. If any of them are your relative or people you would like more information on, I will make photocopies of the pages as well as of the cover and title page of the book and mail them to you for a small fee, or type it in and e-mail it to you for free.
