The Great Fires, Lecture at The Museum Church

It is unimaginable to picture whole counties burning, but that was the case in 1871, and then remarkably, ten years later again in 1881. The whole Michigan Thumb suffered two disastrous fires. The Thumb Fire of 1881 brought the American Red Cross to the first major disaster where they offered relief.
