About Us

We are a group of current and former residents of what was once Gunnisonville, Michigan. Our mission is to preserve the history of that community in pictures and stories.

Did You Know . . .

"I believe my grandfather, Elihu Gunnison (1803-1877), was the first settler in what is now called Gunnisonville. . . Sometime in 1835, grandfather walked to Kalamazoo where the land office was then situated, and took up two eighties of land on Section 14, DeWitt township, from the government. In the fall of 1836, he came here and built a shack on the place and in Jan. 1836 he and Grandmother and Uncle Alfred Gunnison, then six months old, came here to live."
