Carsonville
Carsonville’s Main Street and Pere Marquette depot appear in historical postcards from the early 1900s. Storefronts, wagons and steam trains show how this Sanilac County village connected nearby farms with shops and markets beyond Michigan’s Thumb.
The video includes Niles Brothers, the drugstore and post office, clothing stores and other local businesses. A horse-drawn traveling store illustrates rural delivery service. Later street views show early automobiles sharing a village that had relied on horses and railroads.
