I am a Monroe, Michigan native and have retired to Dade City, Florida. All of my research documents were taken with me. My research (and books) all started with me being curious about the Ford Motor Company's Monroe, Michigan plant, which I retired from after 32 years. The research and typing is still a work in progress. I have also produced a few quality fine art pieces. The books on Monroe County contain enough information outside of Monroe County to keep one interested since I put the information in context.
