Father Winter
On both of these, then worthless, tracts are now some of the most valuable farms in the country; and the timber on the latter Cottonwood—-supposed to be worthless for any purpose, has been found valuable for various uses.
In the fall of the same year, 1834, Mr. Winter sold his property in Warren, and, with Mary Jane and her family, followed his other children to Adrian, with a similar experience of his journey. It is well to put these details on record, that the posterity of Michigan's pioneers may not forget through what hardships of their ancestors this fair land was secured to
them.
