MARQUETTE, Mich. (WZMQ) – The Marquette Maritime Museum has received an $1,800 “History Alliance” grant from the Historical Society of Michigan

With the money the museum will buy protective glass covers and other archival equipment to sort and catalogue an extensive collection it received from Fred Stonehouse, a well-known maritime historian.

Hilary Billman the director of the Maritime Museum said the collection represents an important part of UP history. “There’s only one Fred Stonehouse, and there’s only one set of Fred Stonehouse research material,” said Billman. “So this is very significant the state of Michigan, Upper Peninsula, and maritime history, so being able to protect it correctly and organize it, that’s our focus right now.”

The museum will begin archiving the research over the summer, but as it is a large collection, Billman said it likely won’t be available to the public for several years.

The difference between what's happening in Los Angeles and what could potentially happen here in the UP is a matter of the environment. Wildfires feed on untamed and very dry undergrowth, as well as the powerful Santa Ana winds, which drive the fires to greater intensity.

LA Fires, could it happen here?
