I grew up in Ann Arbor, Mich. I am an attorney in Milan, Mich., a lovely town just south of Ann Arbor. I am a member of the Milan City Council. I have three published books about local history, all through Arcadia: 1. Electric Trolleys of Washtenaw County (with co-author H. Mark Hildebrandt); 2. Milan; 3. Dundee (with co-author Dorothy Heinlen). I write columns about local history in the local newspapers, both paper and internet-based. I am custodian for the Milan Area Historical Society of more than 1500 photos of Milan history. I read a lot of obits, news stories, family Bibles, and census records for Milan and Saline history. Many thanks to my research friends who help me find additional info. My e-mail is martha30535 at gmail.
