Talk:Adrian, Michigan

Park system and notable individual

They have an incredible park system. Among other things, there is a large and intricate boardwalk that runs over the river and through several areas of wetland (without much disturbing them). I was told that this was funded by 'the founder of Consumers' Energy.' The name escapes me. All of this deserves recognition, if someone can pin it down. 7&6=thirteen (talk) 04:05, 19 February 2008 (UTC)Stan

There's also the Kiwanis Trail - don't know if the entire thing is named after them but it is several miles long and nearly makes it to Tecumseh, Michigan —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.11.178.68 (talk) 17:42, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

Culture

I just added a section on Adrian's Cultural life. Yes, it is pretty basic - sorry! I'm fairly new to town and hope that some old duffers and the various cultural professionals in the community will get involved and contribute to this sections. Adrian has a lot that's of regional and national note and could possibly have individual pages. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.11.178.68 (talk) 17:44, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

Land certificate

@Steven McGee: Where did the scan of the land certificate come from? Is it public record? Do you own the original? I want to be clear on the file's copyright status. —Hexafluoride ^{Ping me if you need help, or post on my talk} 16:57, 23 October 2016 (UTC)

I have been doing research on Adrian and Raisin Twp. for a couple of years and may never find where I came across it. All research has been in the public domain. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Steven McGee (talk • contribs) 21:47, 23 October 2016 (UTC)

@Steven McGee: Then you should modify the file's license to public domain. The license is very important. —Hexafluoride ^{Ping me if you need help, or post on my talk} 19:51, 25 October 2016 (UTC)

Founding

The Wikipedia article says that Adrian was founded in 1826, but the city's seal has it at a year earlier, and the Illustrated History and Biographical Record of Lenawee County, MI by John I. Knapp (used as a reference) has it set at 1828. What is the official date then?

Also, said book has no mention of the town formerly being called 'Logan'. Mousenight (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 09:19, 12 July 2018 (UTC)
