Recent Acquisitions


Case #1, or the Recent Acquisitions Case was completed today with a selection of objects donated to the North Berrien Historical Society in 2008. The center piece is a framed 1956 Insurance Map of the Watervliet Paper Mill. The document is marked confidential and was removed by a former employee before the plant was demolished.
