HAPPY 175TH ANNIVERSARY

Today, Thursday, March 22, 2012 marks the 175th anniversary for the date that Garret Morford Sr. was awarded his land grant for land he homesteaded on in HIllsdale County.  On the side is a link to the document.

In July of 2011 I actually travelled to the land to see it.

The land is now used agriculturally.

One pleasant surprise was that I did find the original stone and morter foundation to the the home they built.

Here are a couple photos I took from that trip of the land.
