Ammi Wright bought a parcel on the east side of the Isabella-Houghton Lake Indian Trail on September 1, 1863. William McEwan acquired his parcel on the west side of the same trail on February 10, 1864. By the end of 1864, McEwan owned both parcels, and four years later most of the timber was cleared on his lot. With the coming of the Flint \u0026amp; Pere Marquette Railroad, McEwan speculated that his land would make a good location for a town. What is known today as the City of Clare was platted in 1870. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2016, From Pine Forest to Market City: The History of Clare Michigan's Downtown tells the story of Clare's Downtown Historic District.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kenneth Lingaur\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1732226342\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781732226340\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Lingaur Preservation LLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/03\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 250\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.51w x 0.53d","brand":"Kenneth Lingaur","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44129846853887,"sku":"9781732226340","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_29551ac8-a1fb-4918-8b1c-bc496b252f29.jpg?v=1687466130","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/from-pine-forest-to-market-kenneth-lingaur-9781732226340","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
