Historical Research Partners- Reflections on historic homes and genealogy

Since 2004, Historical Research Partners has helped individuals answer questions about their genealogy and/or the history (or genealogy) of their house. We have helped clients answer questions including when was my house built, who built it, what interesting events happened here, etc. We are willing to work with you to discover whatever level of detail you want. We hope you enjoy some of the stories of the interesting people and places that we have researched over the years.

Ice Harvesting on the Huron River

One hundred years ago, the village of Huron, Ohio, was bustling with fisherman. These fishermen relied on the ice harvest each winter to provide them with enough ice to store their catch throughout the fishing season. In February of 1912, the Huron River (Huron, OH) had 19 inches of ice, and it was still thickening. What a contrast to the 0 inches of ice we have had in 2012!
