"1957 - Caseville News and Local Events" is the story of the great people who made Caseville, Michigan what it is today. A tourist town, a wonderful place to vacation and a great city to live in.
This is the second year of the Tom Thumb newspaper. 1957 was a busy year with many twists and turns. I hope you enjoy this story as you come to know and appreciate these families. They made America Great, prayed together, played together, and worked together for the good of their schools, churches, and community.
By 1957 most of the early industry was gone. The forests became farmland, of the richest kind, and the Lake Huron shoreline hosted cottages, motels, restaurants, while vacationers flocked to the great beach in Caseville.

Mr. Wurst decided reprint the Caseville Tom Thumb Newspaper, for a personal reason. When he opened a store in Caseville in 1973, the store building was between the Riverside bar and Nugent's Drug store. The owners were the Quinns, and they agreed to rent the building for the summer.
As Mr. Wurst was setting up the store with clothing and gifts, he and his sister, Lorna, took a peek downstairs. Having been the editor of his Laker High School newspaper, he was fascinated with the lead printing type and assorted newspapers of the Tom Thumb news.
When Mr. Wurst saw that The Historical Society of Caseville had those papers available online, He decided to do turn them into a book. This book features local news, and the social happening of Caseville's citizens. Like today's social media, we discover who did what, when and where.
