News from the Depot Boston-Saranac Historical Society

MAIN STREET by definition is,

“the principal street of a town, traditionally the site of shops, banks and other businesses.” Saranac does have a road named, Main Street. However, nowadays wouldn’t you agree that Bridge Street better fits the definition. So, how did that happen?

Looking back to when Saranac lots were first held for public sale, in the late 1830’s, Judge Jefferson Morrison set down the street names for the proposed village to the EAST of Lake Creek, and his subsequent partners, Dwight and Hutchinson of Detroit, laid out the land located on the WEST bank of the creek, on the common plat titled, “Map of the Vil-

lage of Saranac. Situated at the mouth of Lake Creek and Grand River in the County of Ionia and Territory of Michigan. Surveyed by E. Shepard.” According to the former Saranac historian, Hazel B. (Race) Tower (1887-1978), this early plat map was lost but she still had access to those early street names, some of which are listed here: (running north and southwest, east of Lake Creek) Canal, Center, Skutang, Wehwes, State, Ocomess (for Chief Okemos) and Cheemon; (running east and west) Bridge, Morrison, then Main moving northwards (to name but a few).

On the west side of Lake Creek, Main, Morrison and Bridge streets were continued west from the east side. – (excerpt from Saranac Area Centennial 1869-1969 book)

Quite a few of those early street names no longer exist, having been re-named over the last 150+ years. In fact, from the description given for the location of Canal Street, it best describes

present day Bridge Street. But back in this early plat of street names, Bridge Street was running east and west?? And there was no (north-south) Morrison Lake Road, only Morrison Street which also ran east-west??

From what I read, only Main Street (east-west) and Center Street (north-south) have continued forward through time –most likely because they both have practical names: center of town, main thoroughfare of town. I can even rationalize how an east-west Bridge Street was so named in the 1830’s -- there was a bridge over Lake Creek. It wasn’t until the 1850’s that a bridge crossed the Grand River. Before that, residents of Saranac could only ford the river or cross in small boats. Not very helpful to trade and travel.

In 1850, what was once called Canal Street became a main thoroughfare, crossing the new bridge, and small businesses, shops and stores started opening up. Thus, “Canal” was

renamed “Bridge”, but thought more of as a main street.

Mystery solved! …at least as I understand it.

When the Depot Museum opens this coming Spring 2023 (Saturday and Sunday, May 6 and 7) for the Tri-River Museums’ annual, “Spring into the Past” tour, check out the recently donated “1875 Village of Saranac” plat map (thanks to Saranac resident, Greg Grieves) for a closer look into the history of Saranac street names.

4 facts about St. Valentine

Saint Valentine is the patron saint of lovers and engaged and married couples. He also is the name behind the holiday that inspires images of red hearts and rose petals in the middle of February.

Not much is actually known about St. Valentine because records are sparse. However, these facts have emerged.

• St. Valentine could be one of at least three individuals who were martyred. In fact, some believe there were about a dozen St. Valentines.

• Of course St. Valentine is known for presiding over lovers. However, he’s also the patron saint of epilepsy, watching over those who experience seizures associated with the disease.

• Visitors to the Basilica of

Santa Maria in Rome can find the flower-adorned skull of St. Valentine on display. Other parts of St. Valentine’s skeleton are on display in the Czech Republic, England, France, and Ireland.

• Some people think Geoffrey Chaucer may have invented Valentine’s Day. In his “Parlement of Foules,” he speaks of a tradition of courtly love with the celebration of St. Valentine’s Day. This association became more established after Chaucer’s poem received widespread attention.

Budget-friendly Valentine’s Day ideas

The National Retail Federation indicates Valentine’s Day is the fifth largest spending event in the United States after the winter holidays and Mother’s Day. Each February, people clamber to get gifts for their sweethearts and create romantic memories through fine dining and decadent desserts.

According to Finder, a tool used to navigate complex decision-making processes, Americans were expected to spend a combined $50 billion on gifts and activities in 2021, with gifts averaging $187. Men tend to spend more than women on Valentine’s Day.

Everyone may be spending more on Valentine’s Day this year due to inflation. In 2021, used cars and trucks, oil, meats and poultry, airline fares, and women’s apparel were just some of the items that increased significantly in price. Finding ways to be frugal may be challenging this February, but these ideas are a start.

DIY CARD

While a card may be the smallest purchase on your shopping list, you can still save an average of $3 to $5 on a card by making one yourself or sending a free digital greeting.

DINE IN

Restaurants are popular options for couples on Valentine’s Day, but they can be busy and prices may be inflated. Many also offer limited prix fixe menus. By making a meal at home and picking and choosing less-costly ingredients, couples can save a substantial amount of money.

BE FLEXIBLE WITH JEWELRY

You don’t have to spend a fortune to make an impression with gifts. Diamonds may be a girl’s best friend, but other stones are often less costly. Try giving a birthstone as an alternative. If gold is out of your price range, many sterling silver options are just as beautiful. In addition, consider warehouse retailers for jewelry purchases, as they may have lower costs.

FRUGAL FLOWERS

The cost of roses definitely goes up near Valentine’s Day, so consider giving another flower. Lilies can be lovely or maybe that special someone has a signature flower. A flowering plant, which will cost less than many bouquets and will last far beyond Valentine’s Day if given care, is another alternative to consider.

SAVE ON CHOCOLATE

Sweet treats are the name of the game, but many popular chocolate boxes can be pricey this time of year. Plan ahead and keep a stockpile of chocolates from Halloween or Christmas. Then use floral wire or pipe cleaners to turn bite-sized packages into a handmade

chocolate bouquet. Otherwise, purchase various chocolate bars and package them with hot chocolate, chocolate cookies and other decadent offerings in a themed gift basket. Saving on Valentine’s Day comes down to being creative and focusing on the sentiment rather than the price. TF222705
