Description

Indian Names in Michigan traces the origin of hundreds of place-names given to counties, towns, lakes, rivers, and topographical features of the Great Lakes State.

These melodic names that enrich our appreciation for the romantic past of our state record the culture and history of both the American Indian and the white settler.

Most of the Indian names borne by Michigan's cities, counties, lakes, and rivers are those of Indian tribes and individuals.

Settlers named places not only for the resident tribes, but also for tribes in the states they had left, and even for tribes in the West that they had never seen.

Indian Names in Michigan is written for all local history enthusiasts and anyone interested in Indian history and culture.
