Excerpt from History of Oakland County, Michigan, Vol. 1: A Narrative Account of Its Historical Progress, Its People, and Its Principal Interest As to the collaborators on the history, too much cannot be said of the quantity and quality of the assistance rendered by Hon. Aaron Perry. In those homely words which so truly express our feeling toward him what could we have done without him! Also as to Miss Martha Baldwin and Mrs. Lilian Drake Avery what could we have done with out them, especially in setting forth the scope of woman's work, and the splendid part taken by the pioneers of the county in laying the foundation upon which the later generations have builded their com fort and prosperity. Thanks are rendered all our associate editors Fred M. Warner, Thomas L. Patterson, Harry S. Gardner and Samuel W. Smith, for their willing and effective cooperation. The county and village officials, business men, farmers and manufacturers - all, in fact, who have worked to make Oakland county what it is today and are laboring for its greater future - have our sincere thanks, both for what they are doing toward the progress of this favored section of the state, and for what they have done in enabling us to picture it in this history of Oakland county.
