- Description:
- This is a collection of Lansing and regional photographic prints and negatives assembled by David Caterino. Image subjects represent a wide cross-reference of people, buildings, scenery, and events. Most are identified. They have been grouped into 27 subject series (list below) that were established by the collector. Series 27, Lansing Photographers, consists mainly of unidentified studio portraits gathered primarily to identify early Lansing photographers. The subjects of the photographs in those boxes is less significant than the photographers' stamps on cabinet cards and other formats. Most of the information is complementary to research published by David V. Tinder, available online <a href="http://clements.umich.edu/eadadd/tinder_directory.pdf">here</a>.

- Description:
- Donated to the Mason branch of the Capital Area District Libraries in 2006 by Eugene G. Wanger in memory of his father-in-law, Leslie Dana Morris, and mother-in-law, Mabel Rebecca Morris, this collection comprises the majority of Mr. Wanger's personal library of books, manuscripts, and ephemera pertaining to the history of Ingham County, Michigan. Leslie Dana Morris, son of Stephen Arnold Morris and Lida Ellen Couples, was born March 1, 1894, in Logan County, Ohio. He later moved to Eden, Michigan, where he farmed until 1960 when he and his wife relocated to Mason, Michigan. L. D. Morris also spent time as an employee of both REO and the John Bean Company. He died on May 6, 1985. Mabel Rebecca Robinson Morris was born April 2, 1905, near Aberdeen, South Dakota, to Rodman and Mary Robinson, but grew up in Shannon County, Missouri. She graduated from the Birch Tree High School and was a teacher at a country school for two years. On February 24, 1928, she married L. D. Morris. She began university studies at Michigan State University as a freshman at age 48, and eventually received her degree. Mrs. Morris taught elementary education at the Rolfe, Robbins, and Steele Street Elementary Schools before retiring in 1968. She died on July 9, 1992. Eugene G. Wanger, a local attorney, co-chair of the Michigan Committee Against Capital Punishment, author of "Why We Should Reject Capital Punishment," and a Delegate to the State of Michigan Constitutional Convention in 1961, assembled this collection over a period of more than 60 years. His Ingham County Historical Collection contains his personal bibliography of books found in his 2003 publication "Discovering Ingham County." The majority of the collection was acquired by Mr. Wanger. However, the collection includes both published and unpublished material created by Mr. Wanger himself. There are books, maps, atlases, newspapers, reports, small press publications, and ephemera. His 2003 Ingham County bibliography is a sequel to his 1977 publication "Ingham County Histories: An Annotated Bibliography for Students, Buffs, and Collectors." The donor's 11 original series titles and organization have been maintained, although materials have been boxed based on size and fragility. Select items have been digitized in some of the series and are available online. A significant addition to this collection was transferred by Mr. Wanger to CADL in early 2018 and has been added as the 12th series. Although most of the items in this addition are numbered, they do not correspond to numbers in the 2003 Ingham County bibliography. Several of the items are fragile. Most of the publications in this collection are also available as circulating and/or reference copies in the Capital Area District Libraries system.

- Morris Ingham County History Collection
- Description:
- This is an artificial collection of Stockbridge local history materials assembled by library staff. There are several themes and types of materials within the collection. It is likely that more will be added. Themes represented in the collection include family histories, business history, church and cemetery information, general local history topics, the proposed Superconducting Supercollider (1980s), the Waterloo area, and some other regional history. Types of material include photocopied newspaper articles and documents, and some original clippings. There is a large group of area telephone directories from different publishers. Published family, church, and business histories, and newsletters of several area organizations are also in the collection. Some of the newspaper clippings come from scrapbooks that were kept by local individuals such as Mary Lessie Ramsdell Farrington (the Ramsdell Clippings and Scrapbook) or Casper W. Glenn (the Alaniz Clippings) on the theme of vital records or Stockbridge events and activities. These often have some type of index. Other clippings, such as those from the Town Crier, are organized chronologically and have no other index (Note that clippings from 2003 were not found.). There are a few maps and some local/state government reports and studies in the collection as well.
