Tour Clinton Township Gravel Hopper 1926

Taken 2009-03-21 14:35:45-07

This photo shows a Macomb County Road Commission truck at a gravel hopper in one of the county's gravel pits. There were 8 gravel pits in the county at the time of the photo; they were located in Richmond, Shelby, Bruce, Macomb, Harrison, Armada, & Ray Twp. It would be next to impossible to determine which gravel pit is in the photo, but it is feasible that the tree lined area in the background could be along the Clinton River, thus making it the Harrison Twp. pit. Additionally, the Kerner families resided in Clinton Twp. & Sterling Hts. in the 1930 census, which would also suggest the Harrison pit.
