Have you seen this image, captioned as Queen Street, 1890s circulating social media lately? While this image is technically Sault Ste. Marie, it is not on this side of the border! The image pictured shows Ashumn St. in Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan.
As one of the few locations in Sault Ste. Marie which houses a research library and an extensive archive, we at the Museum figured that it was time to make a post for the community about how this image was identified, what the best resources for historical information are and an overview of the different types of sources.
