OGEMAW COUNTY, MICHIGAN

OGEMAW COUNTY MILITARY
CIVIL WAR


From the beginning, Ogemaw County has had military personnel to be proud of. Land grants to Civil War Soldiers for their service to our country helped to assure that when the lumber barons left, there would be brave young men and women to carve their homes out of the wilderness. It is hoped that this section can be enriched to include military personnel from early times to the present. Ogemaw families are patriotic people who love their country and serve proudly. A sincere effort is being made to include information on all military personnel connected with Ogemaw. If you know of anyone who should be on this page and isn't, please contact the Rose City Historical Society, Post Office Box 736, Rose City, MI 48654
