A farm community in photographs
Vintage photographs follow Beal City from a rural crossroads to a farm community in Isabella County. The video looks at Main Street, local businesses and the landmarks that stood above the surrounding fields.
Landmarks and everyday work
The Big 4 Farm round barn and the stone Catholic church are central to the story. Postcard views also show wagons, early cars and a bakery delivery wagon, placing the community’s buildings alongside the daily work of its residents.
