On a local history social media page, Lenawee County historians were asked for more information about paraphrased “the 1908 smallpox epidemic in Jasper that killed half the town.”
Additionally, did you know, the requests read, that Jasper was a city of 8,000 at the time, the same size as Adrian, and that 4,000 people died in Jasper, requiring residents to burn half the town to stem the spread of the disease.
The story is briefly repeated on several online websites, but all without citation and the appearance one source copied and pasted what the other said.
I immediately began conferring with other area historians, including Bob Wessel, on the reported event. None of us had heard of an outbreak of smallpox that killed thousands in Lenawee County.

Cooperstown, located at the south end of Otsego Lake, is legendary for being a baseball village, housing the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum. In addition to many baseball-centric businesses, attractions include a well-known brewery, excellent bakeries, art and history museums and a range of restaurants, offering non-baseball fans plenty of reasons to visit.
The Weirdest, Most Odious Figures in Trump’s “National Garden of American Heroes” Slate 1/21/2021 © Provided by Slate Yeah, he’s on it. Nicholas Kamm/Getty Images
On Monday, as his presidency finally lurched towards its end, Donald Trump got two more embarrassing disasters in just under the wire: the release of the 1776 Report, an outrageous whitewashing of American history, and an executive order calling for the construction of the National Garden of American Heroes, an outdoor statue gallery of historically significant Americans, an idea conceived in response to the nationwide movement to remove monuments to the Confederacy. The Biden administration has already quietly removed both the 1776 Report and Trump’s executive order from the White House web site, making it unlikely even a single statue will ever be built, but as one of the final official expressions of Trump’s rancid view of the world, his proposal is a pretty interesting document.
