Rumored to be my family’s home in Negaunee used as a boarding home for the local miners who migrated to the US in the early 1900’s.nnMy Great, Great Grandmother Kristian Lahti was a widowed wife who’s husband passed from an accident in the mines.nnMy Great Grandmother Johanna (single) moved to Detroit and worked as a Maid while her daughter my Grandmother Violet stayed and finished school here locally. As a child she use to take lunches that grandma Kristian made to the miners at work.nnShe talked about a harp she saw in the attic, but said she doesn’t remember anyone playing it. She also said that her room was on the second floor and it was always cold there so she would sneak next to the fireplaces to keep warm.nnWe have visited here a few times, its our annual pilgrimage and is such a beautiful home. It has allot of information and displays that tell the story of Negaunee’s rich history.
The Historical Society has done a marvelous job of maintaining the history of Negaunee. Well worth the stop.
This is a nice little place, much more like a museum with interesting history than I expected. The guide was excellent, too! You can tell they are based off of donations (some things aren't holding up perfectly) but I spent over an hour in there and could've spent much longer had I not discovered it so close to closing time. There's a section with the history of Negaunee schools and sports as well. I am a history nut and have visited many other museums, but I learned a few unexpected things during my visit. Definitely recommend for a spur of the moment trip or for spending time with someone. Give them a donation, too!
Very nice museum in a BEAUTIFUL old house! The lady working there was very informative.
Nice local museum worth a visit
