Gladwin, MI

Today the kids and I are in Gladwin, MI.  We are here with my dad visiting his brother,my uncle Melvin Dale Secord.  My grandfather 7 generations back, was the first white settler in the Gladwin area.  Our family name is plastered all over this area because of that.  In fact, next year he will be celebrated for settling here 150 years before.  We stopped in the bar  and had a delicious Secord Burger.  It is a juicy burger with cheese, pickles,and hash browns on it.

There is an entire township bearing our name because it is where our grand farther first settled.

What fun it is to trace down your family history and find such great stuff to learn about.  Now we are looking forward to coming back to Gladwin for their history days.
