Upper Peninsula History Conference

Held every summer since 1950, the Annual Upper Peninsula History Conference pays particular attention to Upper Peninsula history topics and themes. At the 2011 event, keynote speakers discussed the role of the U.S. Life-Saving Service on Lake Superior as well as Native American archaeology in Northern Marquette County. Likewise, sessions topics included everything from the H.W. Gossard Company, a women’s undergarment company that operated plants in Ishpeming and Gwinn, to a 3-D view the Lake Superior area during the 1860s (pictured).
