Too often the history of Oakland County begins with the building of log cabins and mills, but the human history of the county begins thousands of years before that. This presentation by Oakland County Parks historian Carol Bacak-Egbo explores that early history and the challenges of researching it. Numerous West Bloomfield connections will be explored.
