The old Grand River Indian Trail, now US-16, became a plank road in 1848. A toll gate and Red Bridge Post Office were located here. Nearby were the homes of John Mullett, pioneer surveyor, and John Forester, explorer and north Michigan mine pioneer. Michigan State University, the first U.S. land grant college, and Lansing, the capital of Michigan, lie to the west.
