Archaeology at Van Hoosen Farm
For eighteen years (1988 – 2006) a dedicated team of archaeologists excavated the front yard at the Van Hoosen Farmhouse, uncovering the location of the 1823 Taylor Log Cabin and the 1840 Van Hoosen Farmhouse. Come learn what the 150,000 artifacts tell us about the family, trading, politics, and life in Stoney Creek Village. Presented by Deborah J. Remer.
A life-long Macomb County resident, Deborah’s roots run deep into the Macomb County of the 1870s when her great-great and great-grandparents arrived from Mecklenburg, Germany to Sterling Township. Part of her grandfather’s farm located in Shelby Township and purchased at auction in 1895, remains in the family. A science teacher for thirty years, history and genealogy have been lifelong passions. She has volunteered at the Rochester Hills Museum at Van Hoosen Farm since 1988.
