Narada: a lake with many names
This continues a series adapted from the book, “A Port Oneida Collection,” Volume 1 of the twopart set, “Oral History, Photographs, and Maps from the Sleeping Bear Region,” produced by Tom Van Zoeren in partnership with Preserve Historic Sleeping Bear. Here we conclude our look at the Goffar Farm, along M-22 on Lake Narada. Picking up after the passing of Olive Manney-- Following Olive’s passing, the farm was purchased by Glen Arbor dentist Leo Roman, whose family used it as a weekend retreat.

The prosecutor provided an initial response to Hendershot’s complaint, indicating that the clerk was simply following state law. 04/03/2024 05:09 PM
