MY GRANPA'S OLD 1930'S CAR BETWEEN THE PINES

To the right you can see my granddad’s old car as it sat between the pines in a Northern Michigan winter. My granddad started working at a Northern Michigan lumber camp when he was only about 15 years old. His father worked as a cook and my grandfather's uncle Dave owned the lumber and Real Estate Company. My grandfather's grandfather was David "Hudson" and he was a veteran of the Civil War and was a Sergeant and volunteer with the 10th Calvary out of Flint Michigan. Sgt. David "Hudson" signed up a lot of his Michigan relatives to serve in the 10th calvery during the Civil War.
