Michigan Civil War Monuments

Compiled by George F. May, this 1965 publication of the Michigan Civil War Centennial Observance Commission was not as complete a listing of memorials as the SUVCW hopes to accomplish, but is a valuable survey of the field as of that time. We have scanned in that portion of the text listing the monuments by county. This is a work in progress.
