Dig into the histories, mysteries, and myths of northern Michigan in this week's Northern Express, sister publication of The Ticker. From a feature story on William and George Johnston - sons of an Irish-born Sault Ste Marie fur trader and an Ojibwe matriarch and every-day folks who made an impact on 19th-century Michigan - to the 25th anniversary of the “Michigan Chillers” series of scary stories to myths and interesting tidbits of history from the Grand Traverse Commons, there's something intriguing for everyone in this week's issue! 

The Northern Express is available to read online, or pick up a free copy on newsstands at more than 650 locations in 13 counties across northern Michigan.
