Robert D. Dobson

I am the author currently of twelve Local History Books of Marquette and Baraga Counties in Michigan, Including the cities of Ishpeming, Negaunee, Champion, Republic, Gwinn, Marquette and Michigamme. Much of my research has come from reading every existing issue of the Ishpeming IRON ORE weekly newspaper up to 1954, and the Negaunee weekly IRON HERALD newspaper up to 1968. Both newspapers began publishing in the 1870's. All my notes (1,739 pages) are on a CD or flash drive, and are readable, searchable, and printable and are copyright.

I have been an elementary and secondary public school teacher and have also taught courses at the EWTN at Marinette, WI, and for Lakeland College in Sheboygan, WI. My bachelors and Masters are from NMU, and I also hold a MDIV degree and am an ordained United Methodist Pastor. I am now 78. My new book this year of 2018 is "A History You AUTO Know" about the first autos in our area of Michigan through 1968.
