Dublin Core
Description
Jim Spivey. He was a lumberjack, rented fishing boats, cottage caretaker, ran the launch across Duck Lake to the resort dance hall, operated the tug "Betsie" for the Wylie Cooperage and did everything necessary to support his widowed mother. A great guy with a sense of humor to match.
Interlochen was platted in 1890 where the M&NE and C&WM railroads crossed. It quickly became a lumber town and later after the lumber was gone, served the resorts, cottages, State Park and camps that grew up around the lakes.
