It was exactly midnight on May 29th, 1894 when he landed in the port Manistique, MI at the head of Lake Michigan. Before this trip, which started in Pennsylvania, he had never seen a ship, a large body of water, a sawmill, or even a big tree. He knew no one else in this small town in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. William Scott Crowe, the oldest of six children was born in New Castle, Pennsylvania on September 23rd, 1875.
