Scope and Contents

From the Collection:

Contains twelve photographic prints of various groups in the Michigan National Guard, 1882-1929. The prints are both group shots as well as composites and feature uniforms, equipment and camp facilities. Also included is a photo of the Company K Indoor Baseball team from the turn of the century. Apparently the original collection consisted of more prints, as is evidenced by a numbering scheme, but the current collection is all that remains.

Added to the collection June 1999 are 11 photographs, 2 enlistment books, ca. 1883, ca. 1890, one volume, Custer Guard Veteran’s Association Minutes, 1923-1931, and six folders of material relating to the Custer Guard.

Added to the collection Jan. 2001, is one publication, 1895 on the Innes Rifles, Prize Drill.

Added 2001.114, 1 Christmas card from General & Mrs. J.H. Schouten, with the image of their house at 927 Iroquois SE, on the cover, n.d., ca. 1928-1940.
